Gifu Ume Matsuri
Chindon
Chindon-ya is a group of ding-dong musical band for publicity, though they
are pretty uncommon now.
They publicize a sale of shop opening or at some local shopping mall, changing
of "pachinko" machines, etc.
"Chindon" consists of two words, one is "chin" which
comes from the sound of
gong, and "don" from the sound of drum they play.
