host dad invited me and a few friends to a metal show--
one of the bands playing was Chucky, who he used to be a member of.
The place was called Wild Side(?) Tokyo, a small grungy basement in a back alley
of Shinjuku. Nirvana opened for Sonic Youth there a million years ago. Sweet.
About 5 bands played. They all ruled. It was like glam-metal. or hair-metal.
kind of a motely crue kind of feel. but japanese, so it was super sick.
after the show we hung out and helped the musicians load up their gear,
and afterwards we went back into the concert hall where couches and tables had been set up
with food and drinks.
hung out all night and talked to the musicians, made some good friends.
hair metal friends.
Shall never forget that night.
