Located along the Sanjo street in Kyoto, this is ART ROCK No.1 select CD shop owned by our Kyoto tour organiser (who is by the way a really nice man and genuine intense music lover). This is probably one of the very few places in Kyoto where you would find the CDs on selection here. Every piece of album review is meticulously written by the owner himself. Thank you and hope to see you again Muramatsu-san.

Muramatsu-san, our kind organiser from Art Rock No.1 brought the crew to a seafood restaurant. Janis is allergic to seafood so she had chicken wings

UrBANGUILD an hour before the show. It’s all about wabi-sabi while ironically located on the 3rd floor of “New Kyoto Building”. It looks like nothing has really changed since it opened. Some things are best kept this way, the atmosphere and design seem to shape and decay beautifully by itself as time went by .  This is definitely one of our favourite venues we have played at.
