An idea for the Sakura Taisen Step

Not that there's a lot of "slam" to be done there... save for the electric guitars and drums at the very end, it's an almost textbook classical performance.

You know, it occurs to me that no matter what else happens in this Step, Doug is going to end up changing the face of Japanese pop/theatre music. I mean, really -- imagine the reactions of the entire staff of the theatre when they learn that Doug has a broad sampling of the next 120 years' worth of pop and other genres. (120 years minimum. Might be more, depending on exactly when some of the Steplets and Untold Stories I have in mind actually take place. One of those is Shadowrun, though, which is circa 2050... hence 120 years.) You know they're going to demand a copy of his archive -- and just imagine the impact it'll have, first on their shows, and by osmosis into Japanese and then foreign culture. Talk about Doug's unexpected side effects -- as a result of his visit, the Japanese will invent Rock and Roll -- before the 1940s. And maybe Heavy Metal by 1950...
