OPENING CLUB MUSK REFERENCE In the courtyard of Club Musk in Hilversum in front of the Buddha statue a temporary shinto shrine was constructed in order to make the opening ceremony. During the Great Purification a flock of birds darkened the sky, which impressed the audience as a good omen. During this celebration a new beer was introduced, Iki-beer, invented by a Dutchman who had studied in Japan and who spoke the legendary words: shinto and buddha have been hand in hand for centuries in Japan, and now finally meet here in Holland.
