dizzy 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Author Share Posted September 30, 2005 update: there were some killer scenes the videos. The director of MDP's "From_ With Love" and Lucas Huffman made a stage appearance before the showing of the video. the ending sequence of that video was sick!! the japanese videos weren't bad either. "24-7" had some good clips and "Tyrant" was all about Japanese rails. BUT what is up with the tokyo crowd? i've been to other premeries in osaka where i used to live and everybody exploded. the other day, i saw some fools sleeping during the videos... maybe it was that monday and friday was a holiday, maybe it was that the video fest didn't start until 9:30 or maybe it was that it is only SEPTEMBER, but i've seen senior citizens get more excited playing bingo than most of this crowd. i only saw one or two other foreigners there besides some of the pros. overall, the videos were a teaser for the season, now we just have to wait for the snow...

dizzy 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Author Share Posted September 30, 2005 yeah, yama, hope there are some premeries in kansai... i went to one in the fall of 03' at a basement bar across the street from triangle park. anyway, got a bunch of freebees from championvisions at the white film fest...stickers, a t-shirt, a Wildcats handkerchief/bandana, and about 9 old DVDs (04' and before)--Kevolution, Back in Black, among others i've never heard of any ski video premeries in Japan, but i don't pay much attention to ski magazines. i'd found the boarding film fest in the Japanese edition of Transworld Snowboarding... if you hear of something, let me know!

dizzy 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Author Share Posted September 30, 2005 changed jobs, wanted to see what tokyo is like, be closer to relatives here... t-town is closer to the mts on the trains but i like osaka better for its people, food, and atmosphere. Link to post Share on other sites
