  1. accepted a job running an F&B/Lifestyle company focusing on SE Asia.  still DJing and actively touring (although a bit less than before).  opening for Pitbull on Friday, F1 season in Sing after that.  life is weird but rad. 

     

    Have you actually quit your day job and do full-time DJing now? 

     

    IF SO, THAT IS AWESOME. 

     

    LIVING THE DREAM. GMFB.

  2. Yeah, Osaka is a wasteland. There are still parties but it's really small relative to how it was 2 years ago. 

    As for Tokyo it's really random who is feeling the pressure at any given time. Air/Trump seem to be fine. Camelot is variable.  Vanity is now V2.  Jumanji55 party has been moved to Greenland as JMJ/NewPlanet is feeling the pressure but Greenland is not (for reasons unknown).  It's all such an incredible waste of time.  I sincerely hope Let's Dance can make some inroad but I won't be surprised when they don't. 

     

    As for Taiwan, spin out there pretty often.  Just got back from a three city tour for Heineken :)  Good times.  Beezy factor high.

     

     

    I was in Osaka two weeks ago; seems like police crackdown has won. =\

     

    I didn't realize Tokyo clubs were feeling the same wrath; aren't Air/Muse/Trump etc still doing their usual thing?

     

    I guess I don't get who exactly the Fueiho laws affect...it seems pretty arbitrary. 

     

    @bento -- you ever spin in Taipei? Xinyi has a million clubs now it seems. o.O (plus a lot of beezies)

  3. wait, ColoR is closing now too?

    cops in Tokyo are really being aggressive. 

    reminds me of the wave of police pressure in Osaka starting 2 years ago.

    sucks.

    does anyone think that Let's Dance can actually affect things?

  4. also, what's a good spot to hit up tonight? aside from the usual spot in nishiazabu, what are the good options? is the new hiphop club where warehouse used to be a decent option?

    If you want to go check out Village, let me know and I can hit up Hokuto to get you guys on the list there.

  5. Housing advice...

    We've mostly been looking at Gaijin houses, specifically www.sakura-house.com but I have no idea if that's reasonable/sketchy/etc. The prices are absurdly good though...

    thoughts? warnings? advice? thanks in advance.

    In grad school I lived in the Shibuya Sakura House right next to Womb (a fact they conveniently forgot to mention to me when I went to see the apartment during the day). It was a shared bathroom/shared kitchen 7 or 8 unit "house" and was totally fine as a place to crash at the end of the day but little more than that. Other inhabitants were a mix of Europeans on extended vacations and Japanese bicycle messengers. Overall, as a place for you and your girl, unless you want to wait for the shower and such, I'd look elsewhere.

  6. From what time?

    I have a date but maybe can swing by with her after dinner/drinks.

    I'm on 130-230 at Lega and then taking the model train to NP/JMJ for a friend's birthday brew ha ha. Feel free to join. More than enough Eastern block bleezies to go around.

  7. Because Japan is going to the shit hole and the cops are getting more strict.

    Business as usual at Color, Vanity, JMJ/NP and Feria from what I've heard. As always, can't predict when they will start to give a shit again, but for now seems chill(ish).
