A Day Trip

Feel Scream Burn your heart

I went to watch X Japan at Shepherd's Bush Empire. I got a free ticket. You know they are like U2 in Japan. Massive. Even my mum knows them (not personally obv.). Their merchandise, the drummer/leader Yoshiki has Hello Yoshikitty dolls. £65...

loads of people...

everyone was doing X with flo lights

Intro... Stadium Rock chanting. members entering the stage.

Their first London show. Pretty impressive.

Rusty Nail - English version

Sugizo

Pata & Heath

Pata the guitarist dressed like he's in a psychedelic band. like he's in Bo Ningen wearing a pair of flowery flare trousers... dressed nothing like rest of the band.

I like Pata the best in the band. He seems funny. He's from Osaka, he loves cats.

by the way this is Bo Ningen, Pata can easily fit in this band.

Yoshiki on piano & Sugizo on violine

X! Feel! X! Scream! X! Burn your heart!!!

What I respect about them is they've been around for nearly 30 years! They are really good musicians. The drummer Yoshiki plays drums so well, his stamina still. I just get very impressed by his spirit. How many bands actually are surviving for this many years and still selling out tickets? It's hard for Japanese bands to break the world. It doesn't matter if they will or not. At their age they are still wanting more, just recently started to tour out of Japan. Hats off.

by the way they used to look like this. Fucking cool right?

Sandals

It was so hot today too, inside my body was boiling. My brain couldn't function properly, well... that's always though. My friend Yuki's classic toilet sandals. They are made for going to toilet really. So we call them toilet sandals, slang in Japan. They are comfy, waterproofed and cheap! My dad wears them too.

I wore my favorite sandals Misa gave me but I got a blister. Not very practical but pretty. They make so much noise when I walk too.

Choux buns & Choco Frijj

I felt so chocoletty today.

One Platter Meal

I sometimes get amazed by how good my cooking is. Even when I'm not really making effort it turns out pretty damn good. I just cooked Salmon Teriyaki, rice and salad with sesame dressing. nothing fancy... it didn't take long to cook.

But it tastes So Damn Good!

Would you like some?

p.s. I used my spring onions again!

Jumble Sale

I popped by Shacklewell Arms Jumble Sale. Ben Fuck Buttons was selling records.

I found a PRE record. He told me he has 2 copies.... yeah right. I don't mind you want to get rid of it.

I even helped autographing it. So he can charge more?

Good Luck Ben

I found a Merok T shirt, why do you wanna sell it!?!?!

I've got one in white. I like the design and still wear it.

Behind the Merok T shirt, I found a Comanechi T shirt too!!! FUCK. Everyone hates me now?

It's funny to find my bands stuff on jumble sales. I should have bought the Comanechi tee, it was £5 so I could re-sell it online for £10 and make a profit! The black one is all sold out now.

This girl bought this pink bow tie head band, it really suits her! cute.

This is Tiger, he works at the pub, he made me a really nice spicy bloody mary.

Then I popped by Mia's house.

Edward and Barbara

and check out another dog, Patsy! Mia bought another dog! Mia even tip died her hair in pink. Punk dog.

it's so hot and sunny today, Barbara's been heated up.

Patsy & Tom

So Tom's band Babeshadow is having a single launch party at Shacklewell Arms this Thursday.

I'm Djing, Free entry and Tiger will be working so he'll make you a nice spicy bloody mary too!

See you soon

I finally ate a bit of my spring onions.

cold soba noodles

spring onion, sesame seeds & thinly sliced nori for garnish

dip soba into this delicious cold soysauce based soup, don't forget to add wasabi!

bon a petit :D

Tapedickhead

Ribbed Magazine party last night, it was so busy!

So Alax got back on a deck. He helped me djing last night, he used to DJ a lot under the name Tapedeck.

He did pretty impressive mix between 2 songs. I was so drunk. Free booze is dangerous!

I left my camera and headphones at the booth, I always loose stuff.

Flatliners!

Ribbed

I'm djing tonight at Ribbed Magazine Obsession Issue Launch Party.

Hoxton Bar & Kitchen 8pm - x

Singer

Check this pedal out. Simon Comanechi made another one by himself!

He made it from a sewing machine pedal!!!!! He already had this sewing machine he doesn't use anymore. The pedal does the same thing normally cost £40 if you buy in a shop. But it only cost him £4.25! Simon is cool sometimes.

Pegah

Oh... so I've been working for Pegah Farahmand as well. Pegah is Saam's sister who works for VBS. This is Jim VBS. He was hangover at work coming back from Hell Fest. I think he was there for work though. oh. and this is Pegah on the desktop screen saver.
I was translating Japanese to English adding subtitles in Final Cut Pro.
