Fuji Rock '07

100,000 people + 7 stages + dozens of bands + beautiful green mountainous surroundings = Fuji Rock. This year I converged with the masses to Naeba in Niigata to enjoy the biggest music festival in Japan. The event lasts 3 days, but only 1 day was required to have an awesome time (and the 3 day tickets were damn expensive!!). The Beastie Boys were the headliners on Saturday night and they put on a show that puts them among the elite live performers today.



No camping on the green......but the bunkers ok!


B & B ready to rock!; Big Rock (star??)


The Green Stage....30,000 peeps; Iggy Pop (60 years old!); The Beasties put on a real show

Got Meat? Beautiful sight at 3 in the morning; Party people
