So... is there or is there not going to be a pure Psy-trance party during the ecplise? ...Either way Im going to Japan... But if I got to choose, I would choose a Psytrance event and not a house and/or techno event.
I found a group called "Soulclipse 2008 Japan" on facebook... I guess this one is fake, right?
... Anyhoo, lets all wish for a pure psytrance event!  Boom! |

First of all i think everyone should consider the weather, it is rainy season in japan at the time of the eclipse, so its likely to be raining more than a 50% chance, and if its not raining there is more than 80 % chance of heavy cloud cover, i guess this equates to about 30% chance of seeing the sun being eclipce'd. I live
in these islands, and i orgainse psychedelic trance parties, and i have considered making a party, but i think any organiser would be taking a financial gamble if they intend having an outdoor party in terrential rain.
Im not trying to put anyone off but thats the reality story, further to this i have had reports that the local people who habitat the other islands around are very spiratually conservative, in as much to say that they would not be impressed if someone shows up on their island with an 80k rig sound system just because its the eclipse, besides disturbing their island gods which is locally strongly believed. My next party is in 4 days please check it out at www.myspace.com/hofmannbirthday or alternately check www.myspace.com/crystalskullritual for further parties in the okinawa islands japan |

Any more info on this?
I called a Japanese tourism office and they said that to go to the Tokara Islands, they want $3,000 - $4,000 fee for tent camping in the place of maximum (6 minutes of totality). Mafia style.
Amami island has 3 and 1/2 minutes of totality and it has an airport, so it might be easier to get to.
Any info on the Amami Island party?

is this a psychedelic party? trance party?
My Japanese reading skills suck, and I can't make a lot of sense of the website. |

Dream festival that various genres gather at dance music center such as techno, trance, house, island song, tradition music, and chillout. Uniting of Amami
tradition music.
New eco-type festival working on global environmental concerns.
this is what they saing on website.
I hope my English is ok...
I'm also not sure that they organise pure psy trance party or not.
and Tokara Island is very small island.
they have to pay lots of money to japanese gavament..
this money for, our toilet things, garbage, etc...
I'm not well informed, but there're many reason.
I hope there are some nice psy party in 2009!!!!!!

Reference Crystal Skull's comments on the weather at the Japanese Eclipse Site (which most definately is on); once upon a time I was a weather observer, and so I checked up on the climatology for the Amami islands for the month of the eclipse in 2009, and cloud is certainly more than likely. On the day of course, anything could happen. Suggest, that if you want to actually see the eclipse, you check the cloud cover aspect yourself and plan accordingly. The Japanese will put on an awesome party either way. It will probably be the event of the year on that level.
Planning? Its bloody difficult in such a traditional and rule-orientated environment. Difficult for example to even organise a Rainbow Gathering in Japan, and from what I can tell, there's never been one. I'm in Tokyo at the moment, and I've heard that entry to the island where the party is will be highly controlled just as the comments here suggest. A first-class celebration, maybe only for the rich.
The moons shadow will stretch half-way around the globe and all the way from India, through Darjeeling, across Nepal and China south of Okinawa and out into the the Pacific. So plenty of chances to see it inexpensively, and many people I've talked seem to be thinking India or Nepal. The summer party season in Europe is beginning so I think it will be a hot topic at Boom etc.,
In defense of the Indigo Kids, I was on the periphery, though not officially involved in Soulclipse, and would like to say I found the energy and heart they put into the festival was simply extraordinary. I noted a comment earlier in this thread or another related thread, and I just wanted to say it was a large international event with Australians taking on all the responsibility for what was really a truly fantastic idea. Unfortunately, local authorities had a lot to do with bankrupting the event when they submitted a massive bill for use of the land about a week before the festival opened the gates. The food concessionaires (who were not part of the core Indigo Kid group) also caused some resentment with high prices for some and discounts for others. I think it was a brilliant effort against impossible odds. The Turks had never authorised such a thing before, and usually large gatherings in Turkey garner massive police preparation. In this case, it went off extraordinarily peacefully with no police in sight. The energy was intense during the eclipse (which lasted around 2 minutes), and I can only imagine what a 6 minutes eclipse will be like. Suggest you be there somewhere, because this will never again be seen in our lifetimes, or perhaps even for another 100 years.
This is my two cents. I just think the Indigo Kids were incredibly brave, and the hundreds of volunteers who put so much time into it...well I fill up just thinking about how it must have broken many people's spirits in the Australian camp. Anyway, history was made, an awesome party was had, and many friends were made in a beautiful location under clear blue skies.
Many lessons if others want to plan a future event for 2009 somewhere other than Japan, and I'm sure they'd be many people who would want to go, but start early and don't discount the cost of local political 'approval'.
