If you’ve been following my twitter, you’ll find many tweets of me “favoriting” Yutaka Ozaki’s ( 尾崎豊) 15の夜 (literally 15th night, but I think it’s more like “a night when I was 15″).

Just want to introduce an old song that’s currently in my playlist. Song is called “Scrap Alley” by Yutaka Ozaki. You might have heard of him, if not, perhaps one of his songs. Definitely one of his songs. You tend to hear them on Japanese TV from time to time.

I had a sudden urge to listen to his songs, so I went to the local Tsutaya and borrowed his CDs. Borrowed these 2. Three actually, since the other live album had 2 discs.

You might have seen this, but isn’t it obvious how awesome this coupling really is? Just work the velcro into a decent iPad case and I think it’s perfect. All that’s left after that is the strategic placement of velcro strips around the home. ^^.

Thanks to Jesse Rosten for a great vid.

I attended the premiere of “ダーリンは外国人 – My Darling is a Foreigner” last night. Woo hoo! My first movie premiere in Japan!

I was really looking forward to meeting 井上真央! ^^.
