how do we make a request for performer?
I've seen taiko drummers perform in a wedding and i think they are nice to have on the next convention.
Visit their site. http://www.taikodojo.org/
^__^ taiko would be uber cool! i played taiko for a year x: so it was hard but very rewarding <3
that would be awesome if the SF taiko dan along with seiichi tanaka came to fanime
I personally tried to get some Taiko drumming going on at MF 05, and I know we asked around for 06... we'll try again for 07!!

Who did you ask? Did you try San Jose Taiko / did they say no?
yay! isn't there a Taiko group in SF, too? the one that plays for SakuraFest. or maybe that's the San Jose group... @__@
I remember watching a Taiko performance when I was in Middle school. I forgot what group it was, but I thought it was cool. Taiko would be good for Fanime8)
It sounds like taiko is popular enough that groups are likely to want money.

That would rock.
My friend goes there to do Taiko if I remember right.. I could set him up with a staff members email.. <<
I LOVE Taiko Drumming! It's soooo cool!! I even bought one of their DVDs <3 <3
i know there is a taiko school here in san jose in japantown
Yes I think there is, they performed at the Nikkei Matsuri 2007and was awarded by a placard by a representative of the Mayor of San Jose.
In my Opinion, it was very fun. Do Include Taiko performances :)

We contact a lot of taiko drumming places every year, but most of them can't make it out because of scheduling conflicts/they won't get paid. We've been trying the past few years and the plans have fallen through every time.
If anyone has a reliable contact, please contact us at
