While eating or drinking, relax and enjoy listening and watching music video. You can also hear a live performance of our singer's and musician's and enjoy a good services of our accomodating staff's. Our singer's and musician's can performed a variety of music like, pops jazz, rock, classics and R&B.
Im not that into jazz music but the evening at SONE Jazz Bar in KOBE was a sure hit! - Classy interior!- Great live music! Band was very friendly. And singer said a few words in english every now and then to make me feel part of the crowd! She stayed and chatted with us after the gig!- Good cocktails (and an english drinklist!)- Good nibbles. - We didnt have dinner but they serve food aswell and it did look real yummy. A big table next to us had pizzas and I caught a glimpse of squid on them - interesting! Neat. Smart.
You know ... I opted not to take anyone's recommendations as where to dine and party. I just walked for a long long time in varying directions then randomly selected places to dine or have a drink. Try this out. Great location.I found wonderful little Jazz bar. It was nestled in like an upstairs studio. If I recall, it had only room for to high tables and a little bar. When I arrived, there was this moderately attractive woman with a lot of sex appeal. She had a account binder open ... seeming to be doing an audit. She had a few customers in the place. Honest, I'd be surprised if this bar was larger than my guest bedroom. So, I cozied up to the bar. She was playing Jazz from the USA. The music went back over 40 years. She didn't speak much English. And, I only knew hello, bye, thank you, and how to smile in Japanese. That last action works in any language! This woman knew so much about...
Japan nightlife in general is as wild as anyone can imagine. Pubs, clubs, disco's all what you can imagine from traditional to post modern I can only assume that whatever you might wish will be available in Japan, especially in the large business cities.
If you are in Tokyo you really MUST see Japanese Kabuki Theatre. This is truly a treat, but like most everything in Tokyo not particularly inexpensive. There is an underground side of Tokyo that caters to MEN ONLY. I was approached on numerous occassions by those who would invite me to the 'redlight' aspects of Tokyo. The adventurer got the best of me on one occassion and I was treated to a very personal experience (the devil is in the details... we will save that for another time). But I caution other adventurers, since the consequences of delving into Tokyo's underground are likely to be unwelcome if an authority figure comes into the scene.
We never went out to any night clubs in Japan. There was no need for it. Everyone drinks just about all the time there at restaurants or bars. Plus I am not sure what their dress code would be but I do know they like to dress in goth or cartoon charecters costumes so you could imagine. Plus everyone we saw was 25 and over. One thing to know is in Japan drinking is not exzactly the same as the US. For one they keep drinking massive beer and sake and keep filling up your drink, well maybe its not as diffrent but they just do not stop. They love their beer very much and mostly drink Sapporo or Asahii. I saw them drink more beer then sake however. Everyone young and old drinks and I mean grandmas to grandpas. It is like th social thing to do. When you go out to their restaurants and bars you may be shocked to find out that they do not carry a whole lot of hard liquor or a lot of mixers to...
The exterior of the club may be mis-leading to most people as it looks like a large conrete box. Womb is a 4 floor club with banging tunes, 2 chill-out lounges and several bars.This is not however a place for anyone with epilepsy beacuse of the frequent use of stroboscope lightshows! Cool and groovy!
There are so many places to drink in Tokyo - as you would expect. The scene is very different from most places you might otherwise go to. I have identified a variety below:1. Outake Bar - near Ekoda Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line. It has Hoegarten beer on tap. You will generally only meet Japanese people here.2. The Hub - This is an English pub franchise in Japan. The best branches are in Roppongi, Shinjuku (several), and Hachioji. Jugs of beer are cheap, the food is ok, but its a great place to meet foreigners and friendly Japanese people.3. Basement bar in Ekoda - There is a really good jazz basement bar in Ekoda to take a girl. They have very reasonably priced beer and food. I recommend the squid. I've only encountered dress codes once in Japan - that was a Nagoya nightclub, but then I dont normally club. I was wearing a hat.
Karaoke probably originated in Japan and they do it best. There is no open bar full of strangers. It is just you and your mates in a booth. Singing to your hearts content. So even if you suck like me there will be no booing.Booths vary. I have seen some that even have hot tubs and a view of the bar, others with free ice-cream and costumes. You will be surprised what you can find. One very good option is Nomihodai. It means all you can drink and that is exactly what you get. Times and prices vary. What ever you want
Hit Velfarre, Vanilla, XCross. XCross is a small yet trendy Japanese club. Find invitations for XCross at Maimon (restaurant). Velfarre is above anything in terms of ambiance (people singing/screaming all together!), international DJs sets, interesting ticketing system to buy fluids, hilarious/psychedelic elevator experience!Vanilla is also huge, 3 rooms, all amazing, ceiling covered by blue fiber optics, great House musik, perfect spot to experience Japanese teenagers in action (chasing girls, dancing while sending text messages on their Mobile phones, etc.)! Most clubs have lockers.Cyril TABET
