They have this festival every year at スペイン村(Spain-village in English?) in Shima-city in Mie. The purpose of this is that the audience watch Manzai(their performance) and have countdown to 2009 with them.
a lot of 芸人 are going to perform.
The picture above is one scene of 吉本新喜劇(new comedy of Yoshimoto?) When I was little, my grandparents took me to the play. I don't remember the content, but the performers were so funny that I laughed a lot. In the photo, the middle man in black suit is 池乃めだか(Ikeno Medaka.) He is one of the most popular comedians. His height is very very short for men, but it gets him special.
Yoshimoto is from Osaka. It is getting famous in whole Japan. These days, the number of young people shooting for being famous as a Gei-nin of Yoshimoto is growing.

Yoshimoto is an excellent subject for this week's theme of Japanese art and entertainment. Did you take the second photograph? If not you should tell us where it came from. Are there any interesting links to Yoshimoto you can provide? I think those unfamiliar with Japanese comedy and the entertainment industry in Japan would like to read more about Yoshimoto and its importance to Osaka culture. なんでやねん？
