TOKYO —
Veteran crooner Saburo Kitajima, 71, on Tuesday held a performance at Shinjuku Koma Theatre in Tokyo to mark its closure. Kitajima has performed at the theater 1,790 times since 1968.
After the performance, Kiatjima said, “For 39 years, these walls and lights have supported my performance. The theater is something like my old friend who is leaving for a long journery, which is sad. I must say ‘thank you’ to the theater.”

I can't believe that building is getting torn down. It's a landmark in Shinjuku/Kabukicho and the area is sure gonna feel desolate without it. I'm just hoping they put something really interesting there in its place and not something like a parking lot. Anyone have any ideas what the lot will be used for?
