Airport MCD coke

...when I say large coke, I mean a carton of coke son!

Tour beard in full effect here. Off to the US!

Saying goodbye 2/2

Daiki is a solid bro and amazing tour manager, this guy is almost
solely responsible for getting US bands over to Japan and the first
person who has ever had Killing The Dream early to a show. Dude is so
pimp, for reals.

Daihei sings in Cleave and even though his ear injury caused them to
have to drop from the tour, he was still down to chill and let us use
his van, even taking us to the airport.

Konichiwa!

Saying bye to our hosts

Shuhei! King of botched stage-dives

Unloading gear at the airport. We are all amped to get through
security, customs, and chillify til the flight.

15/7/2008 11:38 mobbin to the airport

15/7/2008 waiting to head to airport

We stayed at Daiki's last night, look at how may shoes this dude has.
This is why he gets all the ladies.

We're waiting for Diehe (singer of Cleave) to come pick us up and drop
us off at the airport. Tour was awesome, but I think we're all stoked
to be getting back to the states today.

Hirajuku dog boutique 1/2

14/7/2008 18:00 - Hirajuku, Tokyo

We have today off and came to Hirajuku to check it out, it's a very
trendy hip area and I found some truly excellent clothes. However, in
a truly bittersweet fashion, no Japanese clothes are available in
Zachary sizes. The shops I went to I would ask for larger sizes, they
wouldn't really understand so I would pat my belly and say "large?"
and they would politely laugh and say "oh no, velly solly!" haha sorry
Nelson! I wanted to get you some rad gear but they don't have big boy
sizes here.

Ruiner goes shirtless for last night's show

"last show on tour! We're here to have a good time!" featuring shirtless mosh by patches and young HA. Japan seriously had no idea what was going on.

It's 2:35 on the streets of Shinjuku...

... and Wyman has passed on the afro torch to this dude passed out in
front of a club.

It's 2:30am on the streets of Shinjuku...

...and DJ is looking for a party. I have zero idea where this afro
came from, and DJ's not saying.

It's 2am on the streets of Shinjuku..

...and Joey justs wants to dance. Shirtless dance parties are no fun when no one wants to dance with you.

Eli and Shinjuku Little Bo Peep
