Music event: I went to Reina & The Blue Valentines' in-store release event at Disk Union dues in Shinjuku. Their new album "Once in a blue moon" had just been released that day (I had got mine the day before when it hit the shelves). They played a nice set including several of my favorites from the new album, accompanied by bassist Nagaike Joe (Scoobie Do) and pianist/composer Ygal. That was a good show in a tiny-sized venue! Was it a coincidence that release day happened to be a full moon?!

Encore: Romantic konya
