nekobi 0 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 hmm, not sure if this should go in the on topic or off topic... anyways, anyone headed to the nozawa onsen fire festival tomorrow (thursday)? i'll be there for the third straight year. its pretty fun, esp if you get there in time to drink plenty of the free sake Link to post Share on other sites
sunrise 0 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 Hi Nekobi, I was thinking of going but I don't think I can get there now. Drop a line to slow - she might come if she know's you're going. Have fun! Link to post Share on other sites
slow 0 Posted January 16, 2004 Share Posted January 16, 2004 It's really too bad that I couldn't make it. Free sake is very attractive... I'm pretty busy right now as I guessed... Have fun! Link to post Share on other sites
slow 0 Posted January 17, 2004 Share Posted January 17, 2004 How was the himatsuri last night, nekobi? Did you drink a lot? Was it fun?? Link to post Share on other sites
nekobi 0 Posted January 17, 2004 Author Share Posted January 17, 2004 yeah it was a lot of fun. didnt get there til after 8, so missed some of it. but found plenty of sake, ran into nofakie and fattwins and a bunch of friends (other nagano jets). the fighting was crazy- some of the guys were getting bloody and sooty. i def recommend going next year if you have the chance. oh and it was snowing- todays prolly a great day on the mountain.

slow 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 One year has passed! Who'll be there this weekend? I would love to see this festival but can't find any friends who can go with me yet as usual... Sunrise?? Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 ill be there slow dont you worry. Link to post Share on other sites
slow 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 I'm glad you'll be there Fattwins! Ok, I'll start packing my skis tonight. Link to post Share on other sites
sunrise 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Oh man, I want to go - looks like the snow will be great.... and Fat's will be there.... but I'm not sure if I can get away yet. I'm deeply immersed in another project and don't want any distractions to delay me further. Tell me you won't be bringing the fat skis Fattwins... please tell me you won't.... it will cause all kinds of problems if there's any possibility of even a mini mini powda clinic/session. Damn slow, why'd ya have to post that? I thought Fats would be off somewhere with Toque if Phat's Luv isn't able to go (Fat's Love - get it - an SJ name for your wife, Fats). damn, I could be faced with a big dilemma here. Of course this forum is biased and will tell me to get my ass up there... Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 the big fat skis are in hakuba. Eh toque this is a good chance to see some crazy people do stupid things come down. sunrise get that freaking cd done then Ill give you pointers anytime you want. Link to post Share on other sites

Fattwins 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 dude meet me at noz on saturday morning at the first parking lot. 8am sharpe and we will kill some sic terrain. I will then hit the festival and head back to hakuba for some chutes I think. that means I wont drink much at the hi matsuri this year. Link to post Share on other sites

nekobi 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Author Share Posted January 12, 2005 ooh i wish i could be there again this year. instead i'll be in chicago where the high is supposed to be -12C... yikes! i definitely recommend anyone contemplating to make the trek and see this violent, sake-soaked festival. once you're there, you might as well ride the best slopes in japan!

slow 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 nekobi, Hisashiburi~ It's good to hear from you again! I couldn't meet you there last year but I'm looking forward to having fun with some crazy people this weekend! Nobody from Tokyo going there?? Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 slow, when you going up? Ill have to wait and see whats up as not decided yet... maybe a massage would help me make up my mind Its been snowing at school all day here in Ashiya Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 C.Boy Like I said we can work something out. If Davo wants to pile into my small car we can comeback on sunday nite for sure. one pair of skis each pack lite and stuff the box full of junk. Link to post Share on other sites
slow 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 I haven't booked Shinkansen or inn yet but thinking to get there Friday night around 10pm and leaving there Sunday afternoon. Yamakashi, I'm sure that you'll be there with Fattwins on Saturday night. You can give me massage anytime if you want. But seriously, after having lots of free sake, drunk Yamakashi sounds very dangerous... Link to post Share on other sites
sunrise 0 Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Thanks for the reality check. It's sooo hard to say no to what looks like a fun weekend with slow and the crew, but thanks, Fats, I'll take you up on that later on. Sorry I won't get to meet Toque this time round... I'd love to see you and FT skiing together. Besides, with all that massaging and sake going on all around me I may not be able to get a good nite's sleep. Link to post Share on other sites
