Music Stage Lullatone live at Tokyo Midtown: report

This comes with a delay, but last Sunday around lunch time we trekked down to Tokyo Midtown for the first time. After looking around the basement floor of Galleria, where there are all sorts of food shops, we bought sandwich and quiche at Dean & Deluca and headed outside to eat it on a bench amidst the greenery.

After then we got back in and waited for Lullatone's set to begin. They had their laptop, mixer, xylophones and various toys set up on a table in the center of the large stage located in front of a big window through which the greenery peeked in.

In front of the stage, the food court-like tables were full and there were many people sitting and standing around. Lullatone played a good bunch of songs, mostly from their latest album "Plays Pajama Pop Pour Vous". I really enjoyed a part where they picked up two small Casio sampler synths that they bought in the U.S. for $3, and played a cheap-ish version of one of their songs using a sampled handclap from the audience.
It was a pleasant and happy experience!
