I really don’t know anything.

 

 

Hey guys!! I’m  a bass guitar player Juna Serita!!

 

Today we came back from Tokushima to Tokyo with a plane .

I didn’t  do sight seeing at all but it’s no problem, as usual . I’m only interested in playing music at many places …

 

During I and Shoka were waiting  for the bus to the airport , she let me know her favorite singers. I have played with Shoka for a long time ; however  I didn’t know her cup  of tea except blues actually .

Those are fantastic!! I feel I wanna listen to the voice all day.   It gave me a goosebumps . Shaka is always my great music teacher.

Appreciate my sis!

 

By the way I went to LABI in Shibuya to buy new earphone after came back to Tokyo ’cause I lost it yesterday…..  So sad…..I’m gonna go bananas…..

And actually now I don’t have money enough… Of course I prefer greatest one but my budget is about 2,000 yen( about 20$).

When I was looking for it , a stuff talked to me what I’m look for , and he was curious about my guitar in my back.  (It is bass guitar ,tho)

And then we had a lively conversation about our favorite music. He really knows many cool stuff and he let me listen to them with his phone and a speaker sold there.lol

That was such a nice meeting .  Of course , what he did is not only telling me nice artists, but also choosing  earphones which has nice low sound for me.

People often ask me what kind of music I used to listen to in my childhood . I usually can’t answer well because I didn’t  listen to music so often.  I was crazy on sports then.

So maybe … I’m kinda beginner as a musician ….

There are too many greatest musicians over the world.  I’d love to know more and more …; ) !!!

 

See ya!!
