Time Out says

People always hope for good weather when they hold a gig outdoors, but it's the really grotty ones that tend to get remembered. That's certainly true of Date Course Pentagon Royal Garden's comeback gig at Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall in October 2010, a now-legendary affair in which the weather gods seemed intent on washing Naruyoshi Kikuchi's prog-jazz ensemble off the stage. Keep your fingers crossed that there isn't a repeat when the group – now known as DCPRG – return to the 'Yaon' this October.
