  Ok.. So today we played at the infamous Budokan.. The Stadium in Tokyo that gives you status. And my boy Terry Tye Lee stated why in his blog. Budokan Stadium has a priceless history. The very first concert to be had here was The Beatles. And there were lots of protests outside because some people didn't want some Foriegn Rock'N'Rollers rockin out on sacred ground... Oh.. By the way, the Budokan is literally right next to the Imperial Palace. So.. Protests Vs. Rock'n'Roll.. And Rock ended up winning. And The Beatles went on. It's also the only place that the Beatles played in Asia. So hella status...
  
  
  One of the earliest soundchecks I've had.. 10am.. Hella Loud, Hella Rock, Hella early.. The best way to wake up.

  Backstage right before the show
  
  After the show, hanging out with one of my favorite bands of all time, Monkey Majik!!! This is the 2nd time I met them, and they remembered me.. It made me realize that it's not impossible to meet your idols.. And hopefully sometime in the future I'll be able to make some Monkey Majik Muzak with them too.. That'd be too awesome!!
  
  Last show in Tokyo tomorrow!!! Hope it's smooth!!!!
