I liked the intro and the musical descriptions, but the ending came with a bit of a thump, as if the band had just dropped their guitars on the stage and walked off.

Let’s not forget they also did original music for one of my favorite Playstation One games.
“Incredible Crisis”. Putting the into a level of cool most real bands never reach (Guitar Hero and Rockband don’t count.)

I went to Good Day books for the “Tokyo Vice” book talk and found the staff extremely rude and discourteous. They are a couple of dried up characters who think selling books makes them intellectuals and that they are doing you a favor to sell you their old yellowed well-thumbed tomes! Avoid this place.

I suppose the best of both worlds would be ideal – “Good books, no coots!” Someone should make a T shirt with that on it… (NB. This comment is made half seriously and half in jest. Those who take affront – concerned I may be unfairly representing coots (it’s a type of hairless bird isn’t it?) – it’s okay, I was only kidding anyway To balance out my prejudice I suggest the making of another t-shirt boldly emblazoned with the slogan “Save the old coots!”)

Eh, maybe. I just want books. Couldn’t care less about whether the person behind the counter is a grumpy old coot.

I suppose lack of competition is the reason they can get away with their lack of quality service.

ps…the name of the band should not be important in the music bussiness,,,,neither should the looks,,,,,it should be the sound of the band and music,,common guys,,music is life,,no music no life…music should not be image,,,or fashion,,we should feel music from the heart and not from the looks,,,or name of the band,,,it is ridiculous and shallow and also fake,,,what has the music come to in japan???? get more unic and original rock bands,,with good sound,,,coomon!!!!!get real!

I can count on one hand the places in Tokyo with a decent selection of second-hand books in English. This is one of them. That sounds like recommendation enough to me.

i dont think these band is good at all,,,their voice is just awful,,,i dont even understand,,how they could get sooo famous,,they are not even unic,,,it is just screaming and some lyrics and music put together,,,,and some teen ageers screaming their guts off,,,i wish japan would focus more on proffesional and unic,,artist and not some people just trying hard to be rebell teenagers,,,terrible and boring music,,,it is sad but true,,,we need music to heal the world,,and with more feelings and music that gives shives down our spines,,not this kind of terrible teenage sound and NOT original sound,,,this music does nothing for me,,just i feel bored!! and anoid,,and feel anger,,not happy and can enjoy this music,,from this band!!!!

just dropped in to say that Good Day Books is a dreary and depressing establishment that I wouldn’t recommend to anyone. the staff are miserable and, in turn, spread that misery to their customers, whether consciously or unconsciously. I wish Mr. Chester chose a different place.

What rubbish!

If art could ever actually degenerate to the point of being nothing more than self-serving, self-congratulatory, egocentric, vapid cliche, then this guy’s efforts might be included. Until then, the world of art is far out of reach of such self-styled prima donnas of the geeky/academic world. Sorry—we don’t need this sh*t,and never will.
Even though present-day UK has an apparent appetite for pseudo-intellectual BS, one hopes that they won’t succeed in making a minor export industry out of it.

Give us your ragged and poor and hungry, etc…… but not your phonies!

Don’t such types even get it that junk terminology of the “algorhythm” sort ceased to impress anyone some years back?

Get a job.
