The 5, 6, 7, 8′s Live at the Boogie Shack
In January I went to see one of Japan’s legendary rock bands, the 5, 6, 7, 8′s who became famous in the west after appearing in the movie Kill Bill back in 2003. The director, Quentin Tarantino found them after hearing their songs being played in a Tokyo fashion store, and you can see him talk about it and the bands performance in the movie here. They performed as guest of one of the best Tokyo rock clubs, the Boogie Shack Rhythm & Soul Club, every first Saturday of the month at the fabulous A971 upstairs lounge in Tokyo’s Roppongi district, Tokyo Midtown. So if you are free tonight you know where to go!
Wow, great, you really captured their energy!
Thank you for the kind comment Ali! (^-^)
Beautiful pictures, full of energy !!! Great job !
i love the ambiance !
Thank you for the kind comment Viny! (^-^) Did you know the band from before?
No, I didn’t know them. I saw Kill Bil but I don’t really remember, so thanx for the discovery
I walk by here every day, and I never knew there was a lounge upstairs!! Looks like a great, cozy atmosphere~
You should try it out for lunch sometime! (^-^) It is a really good place!
Oh do they serve lunch too?? I had no idea!! Thanks for the heads up!
I have never tried their lunches but I have tried their “staff food” which is usually the same as the lunch and it was really good…! (^-^)
So cool! Watching live concerts are always fun.
Isn’t it? Especially when you can discover great bands like this!
Feeling ashamed now, I haven’t seen the said movie, and missed these ladies..gotta go and start learning and listening!
Thanks for the post!
Neither had I! But I have now, thanks to their great music! (^-^)
