Ben Harper.....the Japanese Way!
I am far too tired to do any credit to this blog entry, so no doubt I will be editing it in a day or two to truly express my awe.
RM, Chris and McCabe can attest to the fact that when we saw Mr Harper in Brixton we thought he was beyond amazing. Well in Tokyo I was a little bit more impressed. And yes it probably had a little to do with the fact that I was in the front row (in front of the huge, yet very endearing bass player), and that everyone in between me and Mr Harper was 3 foot tall, so I felt like he was playing just for me ;) Oh and they were filming the show, so Benny was showing off a bit - doing things like singing directly to the audience (look kids no mic), jumping into the crowd and generally being extra sexy (if thats possible). Oh and the Japanese are so polite, no pushing into the front row, except of course when Mr Harper decided to jump into the crowd, there was a tiny bit of pushing there (but nothing like what ud get in Oz)
So the concert was brilliant, Tokyo was amazing, and im back in HK (not so bad), with Clair (all good) , back at work (crapola).
More details on Tokyo, Ben and Bonnie to follow. Zeina - is that enough to keep you going dear? Can I go meet Clair now?? ;)

Happy for now but definitely want more!
how did Basil the Plant cope on his own?
sounds brilliant!
Yes! How is Basil?
I mock your three feet tall audience. I can see over audiences much larger than that!
Incidentally, read your gmail damn you. I wrote you an email, like, an hour ago and you haven't replied yet.
Basil the Plant is alive and well, Im off to Macau for the day, but Ill definitely update tomorrow! Maybe with confirmed dates of Caitys arrival....
Ummm Nat.... you know how I said i was thinking of combining my dad's frequent flyer points with my month o'nothingness?
Well it turns out that the only return flight from Hong Kong to Sydney available on frequent flyer points before August is on the 3rd of July.
So I'll be seeing you next friday... (June 23)
