Tour Diary: 1999 (Eugene) > Page 3
The End
We played 10 days of them (more or less). Shows that is. We went to department stores where we saw first hand how commerce becomes religion (as if we hadn't seen enough of that here). We saw the Tokyo Bay. We saw Japanese Cheerleaders (unlike American cheerleaders Japanese cheerleaders are dudes who look like paramilitary thugs_"2-4-6-8_who will we fucking just kill really bad!!!!"). We were followed by smiling children. Scowled at by businessmen. Hit on by high school girlstitutes. And when we leave. We're sorrowful.

But here's the long and short of it_The Japan Tour Awards for Shit We Dug
1) The best and most Ubu-esque exchange during the tour occurred in a restaurant that actually was NOT the mighty Gusto:
Greg: What are those 7-legged things that people eat? 2) Gusto! Sake!
3) Yakuza: the ones photographed here. The Japanese gangsters are the most polite of any I've ever met. They didn't exactly consent to this picture being taken, but they managed to not smash my camera and kick me out into the street while screaming "fucking mouli."
5) Zeni Geva's Tabata drunken and disorderly at Ichiban Hoshi with his soon to be ex-wife 6) That completely mind-roasting zombie-killing video game 7) The "hot fucking bitches" 8) 54-71, Shingo & Chika 9) That crazy castle in Himeji 10) The award for the best and coolest country named Japan? That's right_Japan. |
