When I was on tour with my band to Japan this autumn I had like an hour off between soundchecks, so I went into a city to buy some souvenirs. I was following a street by foot, but I stopped when I saw these japanese guys making what I believe is some sort of candy based on rice.

Enjoy!

    They're actually making mochi, which is a rice cake made from cooked and then pounded (as seen in the video) sweet rice flour. The traditional way of making it involves 2-3 people. 1-2 pound the rice cake and 1 person turns it between pounding. Those who have been making it the traditional way for a long time get a really fast rhythm going. You see this often in more country-ish spots and touristy areas. Mass produced mochi is made by machine now.
