Meeting our house guests unofficially after the practice at the stadium. Hot, sweaty and tired, but still with the Tachibana smile and the “peace” sign! (Marie, Airi, Sumire)

No i didn’t get to see them it was in 1966 when i went to Walker Jr High. I just discovered them about 3 months ago on YouTube and all i can say is Fantastic this group of students is the best in the world. And I’ve seen Collage bands USC. Alabama. Lsu. Ohio St. And there’s no comparison. KT wins hands down.Yes i no what your saying about controlling teenagers.
Vegas has changed alot now it caters to families also we have adventure dome in Circus Circus but i kust found out that the Smiths Center has just closed indefinitely till this virus is contained. Witch is going to take time. Like you said. It’s a scary thing im a 21 dealer here and I don’t want to ho to work eather. Oh i would lile to get the DVDs they sell but i get no answer back from that site they give. I want to buy them in Blu Ray disc. If you no of anyway to get them i would really appreciate it. Thanks for answering my post. Let the Kids no America Loves them.

This is a picture of Yokoyama posing with a student from the 2017-2018 US visit. In the background a group of people is visible, and I wonder if it might be the Miller’s and their three guests?

Paul, Thank you for sharing your photos of the band and your “roomies”. It’s nice to see the band in a much different light than when they in full uniform and performing.

Paul…
Thank you very much for sharing with us the photos of your house guests and of the entire band. They are beautiful young ladies whom I’m sure had a wonderful experience with you and your family and with their American Audiences! It had to have been an exhausting few days in America for all Tachibana members, but it seems like they handled it like the real troopers they are.
I noticed in one of your photos you’re caught both Tippi and Penguin in the same photo.
It’s obvious you and your wife loved hosting your “Roomies.” It is so nice that they keep in touch with you.
Tachibana has proven many times they are truly great Ambassadors not only for their school and community but for all of Japan!
I’m looking forward to your next “Instalment” of photos and that video of your “Roomies.”
Wishing you the best!

Thank you for the new batch of pictures. You know that feeling when you’re waiting for the next episode of your favorite television show and then it finally comes out? It’s even better than that. This definitely made my day. I especially like the picture of your ride home from the Rose Parade. This gives us a glimpse of what happens after a performance. Poor girls, they must’ve been very exhausted after jitterbugging 5.5 miles. I’d be in a coma after hitting 3 miles doing what they were doing. I’d appreciate it if you could send me the clip (zaoalthor@gmail.com)
