A 12-year story comes to a close.
On a day made for lies, here’s the truth:
I’m stepping down as show coordinator for Oarai High School.

I’ve done what I came to do—and left something meaningful behind.

Not an ending. Just a new form. See you around.

ハイテンション・チューニングキー K-030 が仕様変更。
ロゴ変更に加え、キー先端を薄型化し差し込みやすさを向上。ボディもスリム化し、テナードラム（特にスポック）やスネアへのアクセス性が向上しました。

“With the drum majors through the years.
Carried on from one to the next.”

He traveled more than 1,350 km in one day to make this happen.
Thank you so much—so happy we got to meet!

My very first fan. From an elementary school kid to a working adult.
