Golden Week by phone


A quiet week kicked off with a couple of days in the countryside to relax and set myself up for a frenetic end to Golden Week 2006. Perhaps the highlight of which was Dove Pro-Wrestling at Chinatown. I'm always amazed at America's fascination with one joke but when you've got it happening right in front of your face, with DJs playing hip hop and drum and bass it's pretty compelling....and bloody hell it looks like it hurts. At one point a barbed wired clad board was brought out for the two wrestlers to jump off an oil drum on to. Fake barbed wire naturally I thought, until they got up from it with bleeding backs (and just to check, an intrepid WC pressed his fingers against one 'barb'.....ouch). Quality entertainment.
2nd highlight was a drum and bass night at Tribes. I say 'a' drum and bass night because I have to admit I have no idea who the DJ was although I do remember he hails from the UK. And he's big (in size, no idea about his popularity). Best part of the night for me was a record that Spins DJ Shimomura played. Awesome. No idea what it was though. Superb set alround that featured a very very good Japanese MC who disappeared before I could find out his name.

The udonya was visited 2 nights in a row :)

And to finish it all off, best of all, SH and myself got a photo op with some girls out doing PARAPARA at about 3am infront of a conbini...happy days.

Just seen a pic of your 'trigger finger' looks very nice mate, can I have a go? Nice slideshow, I would have liked to have seen more blood however, can this be arranged?
And a three fingered photo salute, is this a new thing? :)
Looking forward to new tune!
