Time for Tokyo…

after Fukuoka I took a quick flight up to Tokyo to meet up with Kim Ann Foxman (of Hercules And Love Affair), Silvia, Halima and Koji... and it was off to dinner:

octopus and squid

clams (sorry, forgot to take a picture before we ate them all!)

intestines

sashimi

steak

okonomiyaki

rice

after dinner we headed to Grandfather's Bar

and met these characters

they really liked Kim Ann and Silvia!

we requested some songs from Grandfather's huge record collection... but they didn't have them!

lunch the next day in shibuya. perfect for the sake hangover.

then it was time for more record shopping... Lighthouse Records

crew at Lighthouse that day... Yo Chida, nice Ene Records!

Music Land Key... my key to Japan too: Tokyo, Osaka, Sapporo, Fukuoka!
