ATSUGI THUNDERSNAKE W/NICOTINE AND PINK PANDA

We played at Atsugi Thundersnake with NICOTINE,PINK PANDA and 9 BALL!!! NICOTINE is Japan's old skool punk rock pioneers. Right when Japan was hot in the punk scene, NICOTINE was rocking out Tokyo!! I actually heard their name when I was living in Hawaii. They also toured the U.S. and played some big venues! I give them a lot of respect, I mean it's easy for U.S. bands to come and play in Japan, but for Japanese bands to get known in the U.S. and rock out is really hard!! TRUE PUNK!

PINK PANDA also played with us too! It was my first time seeing them play.... OH MY GOD!! just picture this... 4 small little girls.. so shy looking and delicate.. but once on stage.. TOTAL ROCK!!!! The drummer rocks harder then most guys that I have seen, the guitarist has sooo many effects and a stack of EQ,s, amps tuners, voice effects, and to top it off a guitar that is mounted to your waist so you can spin it, the vocal sings and performs great and then the bass player.... DAM!!! one word " FLEA!! " really talented girls! It was fun and a learning experience watching these two bands! They both had really warm hearts and a love for music! Hope to play with them again!! Thank yoU!!

9 Ball always rocks out!! We have played with them before and they have got really tight since the last time we played with them! They are also REALLY funnY!! Lets surf!!
