Went to a club

It was called Club Karma, and we went because the music mix that was listed seemed similar to Mixtape. You have to pay to get into pretty much every club here, so it's important to choose the right one!! This was about 3500 yen, to the Japanese 1000 yen is kind of like ten bucks. So not THAT cheap when you look at it through our NZ eyes...I suppose we should feel lucky that we have lots of free options when we go out, because it's not normal!

Took some pics of the DJs and the crowd as it was definitely a different experience to going out back home...

The DJ's - there were about three or four of them - look the part and take themselves very seriously.

You can still smoke in bars here. The DJs chainsmoked, and relished any opportunity they had to use the smoke as a "cool" DJ accessory.

Doing some "serious mixing" here.
The funniest thing is - they used CDjays - and BADLY!!

Jesus Christ Pose.

More "serious mixing".

They acted like they were Justice or something, and they were only playing Kaiser Chiefs and Lily Allen!

But it was the crowd...

The crowd fed these DJs on. Everyone dances to the DJs, looking adoringly at them. Getting in a sweaty mess (while keeping their distinct personal space).

This guy kept doing air guitar, air drums, air saxophone, air anything (pretty well). He looked like a nerd who lived at home still. I asked to take his picture and got this. I thought it was a mistake so asked to take another...

That's my finger going "wait, now!" then I realised he was choosing to make that face. It adds to my theory of Japanese photo posing lessons as part of their schooling.

It was a great night because of these guys.
Memories of mixtape came flooding back when we heard the Cure and The Rapture.
