L: Yuriko (22); R: Maki (25)
‘We’re sisters. We love the freedom of Fuji Rock! We totally rocked out to Buffalo Daughter – but when it comes time to go we’re really reluctant to leave…’

Kon (30)
‘The top act for me right now is Muse; Atoms for Peace is another one I’m looking forward to, too. It’s raining, but I’ve decided to stick it out until late today!’

L: Mariko (23); R: Youhei (25)
‘It’s our first Fuji Rock, but there is so much to experience that there’s really awesome feeling. We really want to see the John Butler Trio and MGMT the most.’
