Keep the "baton of music" passed on from seniors connected

So this was how I went through everything in such a short time until the end of September after the state of emergency was declared, and all these seem like a digest of looking back. By the way, what makes me really happy after the irregular Fukuoka Music Month was the safe and secure model event "Beat goes on FUKUOKA" held at Fureai Hiroba (in front of Fukuoka City Hall), as it offered an opportunity for the young artists to perform after losing lots of chances in the difficult time.
Street performances in Fukuoka City had been prohibited, but since several main locations have been officially recognized, artists may now perform and earn money at these places as long as they get permission after necessary application.

Furthermore, there are many upcoming plans which show that the music city Fukuoka is not holding back amid the pandemic, such as the opening of Marine Messe Fukuoka regardless of professional or amateur, and other new movements that cannot be announced yet.
- You may dream 決して止まらないのさ Beat goes on ずっとBeat goes on,,,
(lit.: You may dream You will never stop Beat goes on Always Beat goes on,,, )
We will keep the "baton of music" passed on from seniors going on in this city like a record.
