14ish hour flight to Japan! Sake, sushi and rock shows!!!
Leaving for Japan today. Starting the tour in a city called Sapporo. Any city named after a beer is always a good place to start a tour. - Cone

22 hours travelling, 13 Japanese beers, 1 Japanese hangover= 1st day of Japanese Tour.
First day of tour today in Sapporo. Good to be back in Japan for sure. - Cone
I just paid $50 for a few pieces of sushi. At this rate I may need to sell my body in the red light district to make it through the tour. - Cone

Proud to say that we are the 1st international band to play Sendai tonite since the Earthquake Tragedy. We'll bring a good time to Sendai

Off to Sendai ...with a train full of red cross workers.
On the bullet train to Sendai right now. I love the train. I'm over tour buses, I think we should do train tours from now on. - Cone
When your 27 stories in the air, a 5.8 quake feels huge... touring in Japan....
Home from Sendai now. The show tonight was awesome! Glad we could be the 1st International band to play there after the Earthquake. - Cone

--May 22
Small propeller plane + stormy weather+ flight over large body of water= anxiety.
Got lost walking around Fukoku, Japan. For like an hour. Missed an interview. Had some nice Japanese beer.
Ok so those Nagoya Chicken Wings were pretty fuckin' good. I have to admit some of the best I've ever had. I see the "world famous" part now - Cone
Just experienced my 1st sushi boat. Gotta say I'm hooked. - Cone

The new song "Back Where I Belong" made an appearance in the set tonight in Osaka. 1st time playing that live.
DJ Cone was on tonight in Osaka! Thanks to the great people @ Rock Rock for another great time. Its one of my favorite bars in the world - Cone

I think the Rock Rock bar in Osaka has stronger Jager then everywhere else in the world. Is that possible? It makes total sense to me today - Cone
--May 27
Last show of the Japanese Tour tonight. 2nd show in Tokyo. Thanks for the hospitality.
The 1st of 2 Tokyo shows was tonite. Was rockin. Went out to Gonpachi for dinner after (the restaurant in Kill Bill). Equally as awesome. - Cone
