Seventy years ago today, the surrender of Japan was announced and World War II officially came to a close. Seventy years ago today, in some places there were celebrations and some danced with abandon in the streets, while in other places there was silent reflection and many of those still drawing breath wondered if it was much of a good thing at all.
101 years ago this month, the first of the 20th century's two big dances was just getting underway, and when it was over four years later, many believed it had been the dance to end all dances. But, apparently it had not been enough, and two decades later, the second and final big dance of the century was just about to kick off.
And, when that dance was over, many wondered how long it would be before the next big event came around. Indeed, for seventy years the band has been rehearsing, and there were times when we held our breath waiting for the emcee to take the stage and bid us to move to the music.
And in a sudden turnaround, Yamato has once again secured the right to buy a dance ticket...
