    The Tokyo Rockabilly Club has got to be the most-photographed group of people in Japan. Think about it, the Cabinet gets snapped by couple-dozen or so media photogs. Every Sunday, hundreds of tourists from the four corners show up in Yoyogi Park, many seeking out the "Japanese Elvises". I probably have a dozen shots with this particular fellow!

    Sarge,

    This rocker knows what the best beer is - Asahi Super Dry!

    Truly a man of refined taste.

    Wonder if he knows people take shots of him in the same way people go to freak shows.

    Love the pink ride.

    Anyone care to guess what it is??

    Bad-ass greaser.

    After seeing Grease with Travolta in peak form, I'd have to say this guy isn't even close to pulling this look off.

    Reminds of how Sundays used to be in Harajuku (10 or 15 years ago). You had the rockabilities, heavy metal, and other music genres playing wall to wall.

    Good thing his hair is impressive -- because his upper body sure isn't. And, if he really respected his ride, he would not be leaning against it with all that metal on his belt and pants.

    Looks as if that is his Pink Caddy and silver can of Asahi. did he drink and drive?

  • romulus3 at 01:20 PM JST - 26th May

    and there is cop wearily stumbling past him....did the cop ask him "do you plan on drinking and driving"?

    These guys are awesome. They're stuck in the time zone. Rockabilly lives forever with these guys.

    i like watching those guys, but he's a 'dancer'...that's different from a 'rocker'...rockers play actual instruments

    these guys suck, look how uncool they were to Party Boy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiwTsVNxsjQ

    white rabbit, party boy is lucky to come out intact. part of the fun of watching the TRC is seeing them expel drunks who try to break into their circle. he's lucky that guy who looks like "rockabilly oddjob" wasn't there, lol
