tetsukon: "I know of 32 live houses in just Shibuya, that's not even counting other genres." ??? Doesn't make sense.... Having lived in NY,London,and Sydney,I'm sorry,Tokyo is very ordinary for live music.That there IS live music is not in dispute.

It's amazing America let's Japan get away with it...but sometimes,especially western men, make odd marriage choices in Japan.Read the manual carefully on this country.What do they expect ?? This is Japan,not a 21st century democracy,and often the people are the same.
