        Hello everyone. Most of you know that I live in Japan. The earthquake was pretty pretty bad up in Northern Japan. I live down near Hiroshima though. Life cycled through that northern part of Japan and luckily it’s mostly countryside if it would have been in a bigger city it would have been devastating cuz it was really really a very bad quake. Also some sad news and they’re playing Japanese self-defense force with five crew members bringing supplies to the area crashed and I believe all five crew members died they crashed into another airline Japan airlines I believe and all the passengers and crew members were safely got off the airplane so two tragedies just in the beginning of the month here.

        The melody of the notes is what expresses the art of music . 🙂 6stringerPete

        It really is all about ”melody”. The melody comes from a language from our heart. Our heart is the muscle in music harmony. The melody is the sweetness that it pumps into our musical thoughts on the fretboard. 🙂 6 stringer Pete

            Thanks Richard. The area had 7 quakes in the area. Luckily no nuclear power plants in the area. Where I live, a tsunami is possible. About 65 years ago one hit the area. At the time it was mostly farmland, but now many people live along the river.

              Glad you are OK Pete. Saw the news footage. We had some small ones here in California this week but not the big one (yet).
              Stay well.
