Hanami played a set to open up the day. During the show, their lead singer, Robert, played an instrument called a Koto. The koto is a traditional Japanese instrument. Later in the day, Robert hosted a panel in which he talked about the koto and gave a demonstration of the instrument. I took a video of one of the songs he played during his panel. The koto has a very mellow sound and is a great instrument.
