I just spent three boozetastic days in Tokyo catching up with various legendary characters and damaging my liver/bank balance (eh Tony? eh?) Got back yesterday thoroughly macarooned and fell into bed at 7 in the evening. Anyway, those of you I managed to see – twas brillig! We must do it again! But not for a while… I’m not as young as I used to be. Below are the legends of Lado: John Motteshead, Greg Ionson, My Clam, the Messiah and Tony Dani after a night at the Mermaid in Akasaka Mitsuke (Tokyo’s most authentic British pub). After that Tony and I wandered off into Roppongi… and the less said about that the better…

And here I am with my old Fukushima friends Paul Sparks and Chris Cotter. Very good to see you all. Very good indeed.
