THE BOATHEMIAN

We pulled straws and I lost, so i drove to TOKYO from kamakura. The only thing i can compare it to is going to the dentist hungover, or driving in Boston Massachusetts early in the morning. Tokyo, for lack of a better term is a giant shit show, where the shit costs tons of cash.

I felt like i was full on losing my mind driving around a giant volvo station wagon, in search of parking. In addition to that the only music we had was Interpol, and one old jungle house cassette….weird combo.
but crazy Ty approved…

Once in Tokyo we went to the gallery at BEAMS to see NAOMI’S art opening…it was great stuff, i was very impressed-amazing turnout too!!!

Then me and the smoking population of Tokyo went out for sushi. The woman on the left looking at the camera is “PAI”, she is a photographer who has shot many people all over the USA for some very noteworthy clients, she also is an ex-tokyo-bicycle messenger, (scene points!!!)

We also went to “surfshop”, a gallery show that showcased the industries” who’s who” in japanese surfboards and cooler than cucumber culture.

I saw some great tee shirts on the attendants.

Japanese speeds, 7/11 bathroom stop, and green tea grabs later, and we were home.
god love the speed-racer. crazy eyes…
