Just got back into Japan…for what feels like the 800th time this year. Ah well, big things require attention to detail..so be it. The night I landed, Yonehara, the illest photographer this side of the GMT asked me to come out for a bit. I was crazy tired from the flight but thought it would be to go out for a few mins. Little did I know, when Yone says “10 mins”; it means 2 hours. When he says “one last drink”, it means for that particular minute. I gotta say though, it was good cuz we covered mad ground in a relatively short amount of time. Just didn’t want to get home at 2am is all.
First stop was to visit Jun from Undercover at his newish gallery, Zamiang. Pretty cool Sue Rynski photo exhibition opening night party.
From there, we stopped by a few more parties and then ended up at this Nike x KDDI World Cup Art opening. I really have no idea what it was for but nonetheless, it was Tokyo at its finest. Just your average fly ass artwork, big money corporate sponsorship, ill ass dj, beautiful women, Tokyo type party.
World Cup has started and every Japanese person in this country has and will, become a stupified zombie for the next few weeks. They are completely obsessed with the sport. I personally, am not the biggest soccer fan in the world. I feel like in America, we’re just letting this pass us by…like the metric system. Why does the world love it except for us? Anyway, every restaurant in Japan televises games. People watch games while they fuckin drive. Its god damn dangerous.
I just thought this was cool. An official Volkswagen dealership that only sells vintage VWs. They have the original bugs, the VW Van….everything in mint condition of course. Japan is dope.
i never knwe what GMT meant =\
