Re: new member introduction

Felicity, can you remember the name of that club in
Tokyo? I'll be back in Japan at some stage, and would
really enjoy that kind of club. On 2003/2004 new years
eve I went to a Zoobombs concert in Tokyo- and
afterwards a DJ played a great selection. It's a pity
I wasn't in Tokyo long enough to discover where he
played regularly.
