@sick tinsel impeccable recommendation on Shinjuku marz. Great acts.
IKR
Thanks for checking it out 🙌
Anyone going to that Basement bar show June 25th?
If you want cheap a5 wagyu I can recommend meriken hatoba as everyone else on the internet. Yes space is cramped and so on but meat was delicious.

Trying to figure out if I'll have time to get back since the midnight trains and stuff
where are you staying? shimokita station is like 8min train ride from shinjuku
Nihonbashi
oh then i think you can take the keio line to shibuya (like 5mins) and the ginza line to nihonbashi
not sure when the last train leaves from shibuya but keio's last from shimo is 00:14 iirc
anyway you got plenty of time!
Okay, I'm going to check out a few things about the venue. But hopefully, I'll be coming
oh yeah didn't want to pressure you, just wanted to help ahah
Band names are in English here just sayin’ 🫢 https://www.instagram.com/p/Ctgswyvxsri/

Ahh this one also great https://inthevalley0624.peatix.com/
Darn. I don't land until 4pm but that sounds awesome e
4pm landing will be tough when most shows start at 7. Not impossible if coming from Haneda though
I’m in Osaka by the way
Yea... might have to aim later. No promises but may try to go to this depending on how my jetlag swings https://ra.co/events/1708096

Pretty much anything, it's a business district
Aight sounds good, done ironing for the first time in my life, now shower

You’re in the right place pal
You need to visit a maid cafe now and get some moe moe kyun
Yep or just go to an onsen and speak a bit of Japanese
You’ll make friends quickly even if you don’t understand them
What’s moe moe kyun?
It's what they make you say before you're allowed to touch your food
First get the June role from id:customize
Then look in the pins of #june to find live music info
You can meet nice people at those events
I don’t understand much.Should i have to reserve a place first in order to visit ther
To go to gigs? It's good to reserve a ticket beforehand. You usually get money off for doing so
I made an Instagram page to make the process easier and more English-friendly, although the number of events listed is still quite small (I'm working on adding more)

@oak elbow dms
Not in Namba but Voyage Lounge in Shinsaibashi is pretty dope
Good morning from Namba, Osaka. Would like to know if anyone is in Osaka/Kansai this week 🙂 It'd be great to meet up and explore the city together, try some Osaka food or just go clubbing.
I am today
Heading to Himeji yukata Matsuri now, it's pretty convenient for people in kyoto Osaka with Jr pass
I thought our JR passes don’t cover these trains?
Ah there is a JR line that goes there
I’ll head to the festival as well then 😁
It's just the shinkansen to Himeji, I'm on it now so I'll be arriving a lil early and I'm gonna tour himeji castle I think
Look for the guy not wearing a yukata at the yukata festival, that's me
Anyone at the basement bar show?
You can ride Kodama or Hikari Shinkansen but not Nozomi Shinkansen
Have fun ori
Thanks Jackson!
Don’t be Baka buy a Yukata I regret not
Have fun 🙂
Sorry fellas, missed your messages. I’ve been at Himeji since 11/12. Yukata festival is fun!
Dude this is fucking giga packed
Every stall mobbed down
Lol ya I had my fun and I’m leaving early to beat the crowds
For real!!
You still here @silent berry ?
Tbh it’ll be impossible to find you also haha
Yeah not sure how long in sticking around tho ngl
I didn't realize how packed this was gonna be compared to other Matsuri I've been to lol
20 min wait for stalls that were empty at kyoto flea market 5his morning, 😭
Damnnnnnn
If you go in a little deeper there are more stalls with the same food and almost no lines. It’s just the Main Street that’s busy. There’s also a stage where they are doing performances and such
Next to Himeji castle?
Deeper as in left of the Himeji station. Jonan park is where they’re performing and stuff 🙂
Ah sweet! Thank you!
Haha baka
You were right thanks
I just got interviewed for Japanese tv lol??
Behind the stage area now
Let me go over there right now
In line for those fried dough balls that always have a massive line
😂😂
Ori go straight back to the hotel and catch you interview lmao
I'm left of the 6 warehouse looking building
😂😂
I was asked by some nhk lady in asakusa if I wanted to be interviewed on a topic about the best school system. Declined the offer tho because I couldn't give an input on that 😂
You should have accepted. And given some random answer
Antarctica with it's under construction schools is the leading example of education under harsh circumstances. It is a method the US, The UK, Japan, Europe and Sri Lanka should follow. If I get a grant from the govt, I will send my middle child to that school in Antartica
This is fodder for news channels. So many questions from that one answer

Reply with “I’m fine thank you how are you” and make the people of Japan who did a single English class at one point in their lives laugh
I went to the Himeji Yukata Festival yesterday! It was also really really packed
What car
Naniiii
Step out
Hey guys.Is there any car races or showrooms of tuned cars in Tokyo.Yesterday i went to daikoku PA but they didn’t allow us to enter.Because we should have car or motorcycle to enter
Lmao
If any car enthusiast is around, I’m back next Thursday. I’ve got some meeting spots and car parks recommended for jdm meets where I wanna drive. Got one spot open
Ooooh I'm all ears
I'd loooove to join
Perfect
THE TOMBOYS are playing at Shimokitazawa Shelter tomorrow. They are a truly fantastic rock n' roll girl band, their shows are so fun https://t.livepocket.jp/e/e8357
6/27(火) 下北沢SHELTER THE TOMBOYS チケットの購入はLivePocketで https://t.livepocket.jp/e/e8357?utm_source=Facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=217710&utm_conte...
This is the venue featured in Bocchi The Rock too
The signs Shelter has outside begging Bocchi fans not to come just to take pictures 💀
Looks dope. Will be coming
See you there 🙌🏻
Live pocket doesn't like either one of my cards q.q
Anyone down for some yakiniku in Tokyo?
You can pay at conbini if all else fails
or buy on the day, looks like they won't sell out
That's what I ended up doing. Hopefully the machine is not too complex
does that
If there is a show there in the week I'm in Tokyo I'll go watch it
They have shows every day http://www.loft-prj.co.jp/schedule/shelter
They have done nothing to make their website tourist-friendly (even though I sent them an email asking them to)
Awwww sad, I’ll be gone 😢
Yea bro you would have loved it 😭
Hmm I leave on the 30 but just haven't been able to meet up with other tourists yet (hectic tokyo itinerary), is there anyone down just to meet and vibe at bars and such?
👐
Not tonight I'm returning back to the hotel. But we could go to a bar or such tomorrow evening/night.
Where though...
DMing
Now a decent sized group of us will be going to this gig, we'll probably hang out somewhere nearby in Shimokitazawa afterwards #1095442512744808539 message
Oh and it's not sold out?
I'll make a note of that to
It's not
@sick tinsel DMing u
Is there fun stuff in akihabara at night? Seems like all maid cafes lol. We’re in a pretty empty karaoke bar
Only MOGRA
which is closed on Mondays
Kanda is much more happening after dark
@pseudo arch
👍
Dming you @sick tinsel
Would someone be so kind and buy me a ticket? After trying for over an hour I give up, seems like the site wants a japanese number which I don't have. Also couldn't find it in the conbini machine. I'll transfer you the money or just give you cash on the venue. Worst case I'll buy it there I hope
I bought livepocket tickets before without a japanese phone number
you can just use ur hotel phone number iinw, they wont send any confirmation texts
It hasn’t sold out, so you should be fine buying at the door. Get there a little early just in case (opens at 18:30)
If you can’t get there early, I will head over and get it for you
Should be able to get there early so its okay but thanks for the offer, seems like the page has a problem with my email, maybe you need a japanese one idk
That message under the email box just means set your spam folder settings to approve Livepocket emails (or instead just check your spam folder if you don’t get the email)
Oooo I might finally Mahe it to this one! It's tonight?
Make not mahe
And ok to buy at the door at 7?
Yes it's tonight!
Should be okay on the door at 7 although a line might be forming
Grabbed a ticket for tonight so I'll be there!
You will not be disappointed
Which one of the guys is you btw
Am at the venue lol
I’ll be there in like 5 mins, I have bleach blond hair and a dark blue shirt
Ah ok
I’m outside now
Nice
I am in a Grey shirt, dark skin, and I am one of those rare oddball who wears ear plugs at concerts so should be obvious
Everyone should be wearing ear plugs >.>
I'm staying in hakone for the night, back in Tokyo tomorrow, I'm up for anything then
This girl talks almost comically fast
I had to run away real fast bc I haven't eaten but omg they were so good! Thank you habo!!!!
Onsen bathing was too hot for a weak swede like me 😂
They also killing me with 550 yen for a small can of beer
habo's shiny hair
@sick tinsel drop your youtube btw

Japan is home to a rich and vibrant independent music scene. Hidden just out of sight of the mainstream, this subculture of innumerable talented acts and their passionate supporters is an unparalleled space for self-expression, creative experimentation, and unforgettable nights out. But despite its depth and quality, almost no one knows it exist...
Thanks so much again to everyone who came out today
Good thing I got two stickers I already lost one 😔
anyone who wants to go to a bar or party in osaka tomorrow?
hey joe. Its Joel from line. I don't know if you are on here but I broke my phone and I am going to buy a new one and go to hakone. I should be there by one o clock
Anywhere else in japan they having a thunderstorm or just hiroshima
Looks like just Hiroshima
and Fukuoka
Tokyo feels ready for it
Aw man it’s gonna rain in Tokyo exactly at evening commute time
It over so I think it's head to tokyo probably
Uh oh
For everyone who came out last night: here is the video of us from the owner of the bar

Anybody in Osaka tomorrow wanna meet up?

I'll probably be at Osaka castle at 9am
Hi guys, anyone keen to drive to some jdm car meeting spots tonight? Daifuku parking and such
The person who was supposed to come might not make it.
Anybody for lunch in the kita district?
Best bar in Yokohama, who’s got the recs
Even more likely I saw pewds thanks to his upload this morning
If he was in shibuya last week and so was I there’s a decent chance
It wasn’t just a pretty tall doppelgänger
Last call for a really lovely acoustic lineup tonight at my favourite bar https://www.instagram.com/p/CtP3TtQypHx
Transitions to regular bar time after the show ends at 21:30 ish
Who’s that ?
Ohhh that guy
Yeah he moved to Tokyo
I thought that was Jürgen Lingonberry, the Swedish surfer of Kamakura https://youtu.be/Lg4wxOeZTQM?t=857

Going swimming where? With this heat going to a pool sounds amazing
The uni. The pool was super empty yoo
I had my own lane for the most part. It's really warm though
Good idea
I couldn’t find a pool in Tokyo that wasn’t onsen or sento that opened before mid July
The day pass for non students is 1100 yen
Is anyone in Kanazawa rn?
It's July guys #1095402963163435128
