Went to the Africa Fair that's going on now in Odaiba There were booths representing countries of Africa where you could basically walk up to and talk to the natives and also a food court with various African dishes.
One thing I really enjoyed was a performance by this band called "Tabureka" which featured an African sax player/lead singer and drummer w/ the rest of the band being Japanese. It was a really intriguing performance. As the performance reached it climax, these African MC and dancer invited themselves onto the stage to joined the band then started pulling random people onto the stage who then were practically forced to dance along to the music. It was a pretty memorable and funny moment that you couldn't help but to smile at. There was a strong sense of having a good time together which everyone in the audience could feel and I really enjoyed the performance.
