Thursday, July 24th, 2008http://samuraidave.wordpress.com/2008/07/24/rockin-it-in-japan-the-sushi-cabaret-club/
The following is a look at a mostly foriegn rock band, the Sushi Cabaret Club, based in Nagoya, Japan.
The members hail from Scotland, England, Australia, and Japan. They talk about their music, what brought them to Japan, what it’s like for bands in Japan, and what it’s like playing for Japanese audiences.
They also dispell a few myths like how easy it is for Western musicians to make it big in Japan.
A few of their fans talk about their interest in the band’s music as well.
