Shinjuku-Kabukicho is one of the famous entertainment spots in Tokyo. There are many theatres, bars, hostess bars, and adult entertainment business. People seek pleasure, shout, and walk drunkenly at night, even though they are shy and busy with work during the daytime. Mysterious neon lights make people desire more what they want to do. You feel people’s fundamental energy there at night.
I basically lived at this place when I lived in Tokyo. This was also the first place I ever performed. Good food, nice shows and a great mixture of locals and international people.
