So, going out, listening to some local music in Tokyo is the hardest thing ever. There are local live music bar with whatever kinds of music, but they are not expecting you to show up. In fact, none of those bar is expecting you to show up and listen to some music in some random night. What they do is they charge musicians to play. AKA “pay to play” shit. The local musicians has to start with 200 USD negative to 450 USD negative in order to have a 25 minute spot. The same local musicians has to sell 10 to 30 20 USD ticket in order to get even.

What this means is that, let’s say you are starting out a band. Then you have to find 20 friends who would pay 20 to see your band who never played live. Then after that, you, not only have to keep on having those 20 to show up, but also have to get their friend of friend to show up. It totally helps if you have hot chick with bikini singing for your band, but it usually not enough. You also have to make sure that none of the band member is dating, so that those loser audience could have the hope of dating the members in their wildest dream.

I have seen it happen. This is another reason Japanese fuckers don’t want kids to fuck. Because if all of those fuckers are sexually satisfied, no one is going to show up to the widest dream club of hooking up with the band members.

But, in some degree, those fuck are everywhere.

Music entertainment is like a soft porno. You’d better stop practicing your instrument now.
