Oooh dearly dear! It was the great adventure in May 2008. It was my first trip to Japan, Tokyo. Sooooo coool, so much people and diversity, great recordshops, big city hazzle. You could walk around with your pants down with a living duck taped on your forehead while singing Sinatra's "My Way". And nobody would care :) Oh how I miss that.

And on top of everything I had the chance to meet one of my idols, the man himself, big daddy kane of the japanese fingerstyle scene - Kotaro Oshio. Such a mindblower! We sat down for a long interview together for Acoustic Guitar mag in japan and then we were suddenly doing a BOTW. Whuthaa! Great guy, fantastic player! Enjoy!
