Nice, I'm guessing it's the same bar as the one he's doing his show at; Asakusa Smile Bar

[humble crater]

I may join in on that comedy show if there’s still availability, that sounds like fun

[stiff ridge]

Sounds good, you can grab a ticket here https://tidycal.com/meshida/standup-comedy.
I'm going on Tuesday 5th December.

[humble crater]

Amazing thank you! I’ll let y’all know if I go!

[wintry girder]

I would like to join you tomorrow too. Have you decided on a place and time yet?

Feel free to pin me if there's news about the meeting. I just want to be home on time because I don't feel like spending extra money on a taxi later

[slate berry]

I'll be in Tokyo from 12/8-12/15

[low plover]

Hello everyone! 25F traveling from California - I'm going to be in Tokyo 9 - 15 and would love to join/meet up with people for bars/dinner!
I also wanted to know if anyone is going to Disney Sea..?

[kind bolt]

Hi everyone! 32M traveling from NYC - will be in Tokyo 12/10-12/13, first time in Japan (actually first time solo traveling ever 😭 ), would be down to meet up to eat or look at stuff! Very little japanese ability, but I can speak slightly below average conversational mandarin lol

[queen python]

Why the sad face 🤣? Or are those tears of joy

[lofty elbow]

I'm with family in Shinjuku today but maybe Tonight I can slip away for a few hours shoot me a message when you arrive

[quiet agate]

Tomorrow the 5th there's a live music thing

I might be available later tonight if I don't collapse from jetlag

Anyone wanna try teamlab planets? There's some availability before 1:30pm

[kind bolt]

crying face because I know for the first few days I will be floundering around, being awkward because I don't know the language/little travel exp. But some of those are tears of joy I suppose 😄

[queen python]

I can relate! I totally got a nonrefundable plane ticket and if not I probably would have chickened out by now

[long stump]

I’m occasionally checking the December 2023 thread as well. Think some folks planning something tonight. I’m still on the plane for another 4hrs lol

[lofty elbow]

Is good we'll see tonight have a good flight

[mellow schooner]

See you on the 14th :) #1180770208126861332

[coral schooner]

What is this live music thing you speak of?

[cold bay]

Hello, 30F from California. I was wondering if anyone would be free on Dec 14th to go this stationery expo in Yokohama. The event is from the 14th to 17th but I can only go on the 14th. Afterwards in the late afternoon or evening, I'm thinking of checking out the Christmas Market at the Yokohama Red Brick House which is a 12 min walk from the stationery expo venue.

Search for messages from habo in the general chat, or for Instagram links

[wintry girder]

Hey ho, is there something going on in Tokyo tomorrow evening or in the next few days regarding a group meeting? 25 M from Germany, would like to join somewhere. If nothing concrete has been decided yet, I would organize a meeting where everyone is invited. So that solo travelers can socialize a bit.

[lofty elbow]

@stiff ridge was putting something together I think

[wintry girder]

@lofty elbow OK, then I'm excited to see what happens, but if it doesn't interest me, I'll arrange a meeting myself. No offense intended, but I don't like everything either

[lofty elbow]

No problem but if you do end up setting something up I'm down

[fierce pike]

Hi Lan, and everyone else. I’m 30M Asian from Seattle/NY. Going to be in Tokyo 12/14-12/16. Been to Japan a few times, but first time solo while I wait for friends to arrive. Open to coffee, walking around, food, drinks. 🙂

[wintry girder]

@lofty elbow sounds good to me

I've been traveling since 8 a.m. and just arrived at my Airbnb. My feet need a break haha ​​first take a hot bath

I'm setting up a few meetings myself, everyone is welcome, details will follow.

[shrewd zinc]

I'm flying back day after tomorrow, open to eat/grab a few drinks tomorrow

[stiff ridge]

For those interested, there’s a comedy show in Asakusa in tomorrow night 12/5 @ 6pm.

English Standup Comedy Show ”My Japanese Perspective” in Tokyo by Meshida

Tickets: https://tidycal.com/meshida/standup-comedy

I’ll be there for the drinks and the show. Drop a message if you’re interested in attending, could possibly do dinner beforehand.

For those not available then, we can arrange drinks afterwards the area.

[shrewd zinc]

Might come to this, do they take card on the door by any chance

[mellow schooner]

I don't think MARZ does, no

Venues largely don't at the door, but do at the bar inside. Weird system

[shrewd zinc]

Hmm ok that's fine ig

[mellow schooner]

Just remember to reserve a ticket in advance (ideally before midnight tonight) to get the discount 'advance' price which is ¥500 off

[shrewd zinc]

Oh so if I decide to not come is that ok

[mellow schooner]

No you should cancel your ticket if you do that

Otherwise it's not fair should it sell out

[shrewd zinc]

I don't mind paying at the door in that case

Cheers for the help

[quiet agate]

Where is the link in bio for ticket?

Ah looks like I missed that

Presales close midnight the day before?

[mellow schooner]

This depends on the event organiser—some close it the day before, some are more lenient

[wintry girder]

I just created new meetup. Everyone is welcome.

[quiet agate]

@mellow schooner feeling better today?

@mellow schooner woah there was one yesterday as well!?

damn

[quiet agate]

@coral schooner hey, were you into the music ?

There’s also a dinner meetup

[coral schooner]

Yoohoo thanks for thinking of me! I ended up snagging a ticket to another event I was really excited about so I'll be passing on music tonight 🙂

[low plover]

Hiii - I was wondering if anyone is down to go bar hopping or like just late night crawls in shinjuku sometime around 10-14th? or If there's already existing event like that, could a kind soul add me to the event? Thank you!! (I guess I could try to create a group chat of the ppl that like this post? )

[lofty elbow]

I probably have some time on the 10th

[wintry girder]

Would be also down on the 10th

[stiff ridge]

Yea should be free at night on the 10th.

[unreal bison]

Not sure if I'll be here on the 10th but after this definitely

[stiff ridge]

Would anyone be interested in doing something casual tomorrow (7th) night.
Maybe involving a few cold beverages, but nothing hardcore.

[bold knot]

Im down !

[young river]

Will be in Tokyo 11th to 15th. From Illinois. 30m

[stiff ridge]

Easy, sent you a dm

[peak bay]

Any plans for tomorrow? A buddy and I were thinking karaoke

[velvet spoke]

I might be down for a casual night

[fluid rock]

I'm interested! Will be in Tokyo Dec 9-14th.

[stiff ridge]

Easy, I’ll DM

[mellow schooner]

Some very very good gigs on tomorrow at Tokyo’s indie venues. These are great places to chat to people over a drink without the pressure to drink too much, because you’ve also got the music to keep you entertained
#1153349897576255519 message

[stiff ridge]

Haha why do I feel you’re a promoter for these events 😅
but all good, I’ll keep them in mind.

[mellow schooner]

I’m not, I just love these shows and love seeing how everyone—audience and performers—enjoys them. Some people need an extra push but when they do show up they’re always like “This is amazing, I’m so glad I chose to come”

[peak panther]

hi i’m safwat 23M from Georgia, USA and a first time solo traveler! i’ll be in tokyo dec 8-10 and would love to grab dinner/drinks or just explore with folks on here 🙂

[kind bolt]

Hey, I'd be around on the 10th if you're looking for more peeps!

[nocturne ledge]

I’m down!

Is there a dedicated group chat for this event. I just arrived here yesterday and want to make new friends

[queen python]

I thought you were going to provide the chat because, “ X going to give it to ya”. Bad jokes aside i landed yesterday and I may be free to join as well

[tired mural]

I’d be down as well on the 13th-14th if anyones around, fly out on the 15th so tryna go out with a bang

[stiff ridge]

For those looking for a very social drinking event, the Tokyo Pub Crawl is on tonight.

https://www.tokyopubcrawl.com/events/12-8-2023.html

While it’s not really a Japanese experience event, it’s more an event to meet other traveler’s.

[mellow schooner]

For a Japanese experience event, come here #1153349897576255519 message

[arctic spire]

I could join from the 11-14th

[nocturne ledge]

I purchased an advance ticket. I’ll see anyone and everyone there tonight!

[queen python]

How was the pub crawl? I wanted to go but got into something else.

[stiff ridge]

It was really good, I think around 80ish people came. Still recovering now, but nothing some convi food can’t fix.

[stiff ridge]

How about your night?

[timber vessel]

anyone going to teamlabs in the next few days?

also hi just discovered this discord even tho i've been in japan for 3 weeks lol

[unreal bison]

I might go to teamlabs, still haven't planned anything in Tokyo yet

[queen python]

Good actually! Still new to the travel life. I got to visit a hostel and talk with the guests there. Some went out. Would have joined but pretty burnt out

[queen python]

Are tickets still available? I might do it soon!

[stiff ridge]

Nice, I’m also staying at a hostel/capsule spot. It’s pretty nice chatting to fellow travelers.

[versed yoke]

hola

[graceful bluff]

I'm also going to Disneysea using the night pass on Monday. Can I tag along?

[versed yoke]

@graceful bluff yes!

[queen python]

I just left Shibuya ☠️ it was super busy

[stiff ridge]

Hahaha typical Saturday. You going anywhere else?

[queen python]

I went back to my hotel. My feet are killing me, but honestly it’s Saturday I want to do something that involves drinking 🤣. I just don’t want to march all the way through that again.

I’m in the lidabashi area if you have anything planned with drinks involved I may be down to come out if it’s not too far ☠️

If not, no sweat I’m in Tokyo till the 14th

[stiff ridge]

Yea I can relate, my feet are dead too.
All good, I might drop by a familymart, grab a few drinks and relax too, but definitely next time.

[queen python]

Sounds good! How long are you in Tokyo if you don’t mind me asking?

[stiff ridge]

I’m here till the 18th.

Majority in Shibuya, but last few days in Shinjuku

[queen python]

Nice! Yea, we have plenty of time to do something!

[gaunt stream]

I'm looking to go either tomorrow or Monday. wouldn't mind tagging along since it's my 1st time in Japan

[long stump]

I have my teamlabs on Monday at 5pm lol

[lapis hamlet]

will be in tokyo from 11-14th, free to meet for meals at any time!

[nocturne ledge]

Very good. A night I’m definitely gonna remember even though the drinks did a good job on my memory hahaha. Great vibes and great people.

I spent all of yesterday literally in bed recovering.

[gaunt stream]

Sweet, are you planning on doing any else that day? I just booked my ticket for 5PM too. If you're in the area perhaps we could also grab a bite afterwards!

[long stump]

Probably odaiba but that’s tentative since I’m shifting my stuff back over to Tokyo in the morning/afternoon

[gaunt stream]

Cool, just lmk if you want to meet up or grab a drink that day 👍

[kind bolt]

Anyone free to grab food/ hang out today? I'm around Shinjuku, still figuring out what I want to do 🥲

[mellow schooner]

Come disco in the evening

[mellow schooner]

We can fix you

[gaunt stream]

Want to meet up today? I've yet to explore Shinjuku

[kind bolt]

Sure, I haven't really either, I basically got in yesterday after 20 hours of travel and spotty sleep

G’day everyone, anything happening next week? I’m gonna be in Tokyo until the 19th of December solo travelling and it’d be cool to meet up with some people :)

FYI I’m 19M just as a heads up

[stiff ridge]

Looking for a day activity or night?

[paper tree]

Either or honestly, a night out would be pretty cool

[stiff ridge]

There’s a few night illuminations and festivals happening that I’m looking at attending.

[paper tree]

Ooh interesting, where abouts?

[stiff ridge]

As for the day, pretty open, but hoping to visit kamakura and Shimokitazawa at some stage.

[stiff ridge]

Few illuminations all around Tokyo, but event-wise there’s Tokyo Mega Illumi (Oi Racecourse) and another in Yokohama.

[paper tree]

Is the one in Yokohama by the shopping center? I went past one after seeing the fireworks at Shinko pier

[stiff ridge]

Maybe, I know it’s at a red brick warehouse

[gaunt stream]

Enjoy teamlab

[peak bay]

[gaunt stream]

Let me know when you're in the area

[unreal bison]

In akiba rn I'll start moving soon

[gaunt stream]

Oh I'm staying in Aki. If you're still in the area in 30 minutes we could meet up on the way to Odaiba

[versed yoke]

@graceful bluff my credit card didn't work unfortunately

Apparently it's a known issue

Kept getting 155 error

[graceful bluff]

Oh yea they don't accept most credit card

Unfortunately you can only buy the regular day pass on klook or the kombini store to overpass that issue

[versed yoke]

Yupp I had to get a day pass through klook 😅 should've messaged you, my bad! But I'm done with the park for the day

Spent about 3.5 hours there

Got 3 rides and walked around a bunch

[graceful bluff]

No worries, enjoy your day

[versed yoke]

You too!

[unreal bison]

The bus is taking me directly in front of teamlab

[gaunt stream]

Oh okay

[solar rover]

[stiff ridge]

Thanks for the invite, but I'll have to pass on the gig this time. Enjoy the music, and I’ll maybe catch you at the next one.

[arctic spire]

Show was so good!

[mellow schooner]

Thank you!! I was there too

Amazed that Stroll was able to pull together such a great lineup to support their first-ever gig

[stiff ridge]

Hey all, I’ll be in Akihabara today and then off to the Tokyo Mega Illumination tonight.

For those in the area drop me a message and we can grab lunch, maybe at a maid cafe or something similar haha.

[arctic spire]

Did you end up going to a maid cafe?

[stiff ridge]

Haha not yet

[quiet agate]

@stiff ridge how was mega illumination?

[stiff ridge]

@quiet agate pretty amazing. Are you thinking of going too?

[quiet agate]

Yes

Is it more of a date or solo thing?

[stiff ridge]

It can be both. A lot of families, dates and individuals.

[weary sable]

Anyone know of any gaijin friendly bars and venues in Shinjuku that aren’t seedy and won’t rob me

[nocturne ledge]

There’s a bunch in Roppongi if I remember

Although I don’t remember too well from last time

[weary sable]

I’m a bit worried about the travel time and possibly missing the last train
