Ended up with only three hours of sleep before packing up my gear and leaving for the venue to setup for the shoot with Dir En Grey. Now usually from my experiences Japanese people are over polite, didn't get a hello or one word from Kyo the singer during our shoot... I think the him acting mysterious got lost in translation maybe?? Did manage to make him laugh even though he wouldn't say anything! Went alright but everyone was nice enough to let me catch up on work in the production office for 5 hours before the second show.

Didn't shoot as much on night two as the light seemed even less which I didn't think was possible! Went over to the Roppongi area after the show and then it was to a restaurant that did a load of soups and things. After that we met up with Tommy from their management and went to the venue where the interviews were being done the next day... So at 4am Paul said he always wanted to go to the Fish market which opened around 5am so we thought why not stay up and go for it! So glad we did as it was amazing. Really cool to see everything and afterwards we went to a sushi restaurant around the corner and had some of the best sushi ever! Incredibly fresh! So by this point being up for 21 hours it was really time for me to get some sleep...

Before sleeping though I did take the time to wish my bro a Happy Birthday!
