It was that time again. I returned to the HUB Asakusa to catch the live performance of Shinichi Yanagisawa and His All-Stars. As usual, they were great.

If you're not familiar with Yanagisawa-san by now, for shame. He played Miyamoto in The X from Outer Space (1967), but these days he keeps busy as a jazz singer and drummer. I've been attending his shows for almost three years, and he never misses a beat.


He's also a heck of a nice guy. It's always wonderful to pay him a visit. I'll certainly be back in two months, and I can't wait!
