Accounting, and International Marketing like usual. After class I stopped home to drop off some stuff and headed back out to Shinjuku to meet up with my friend Yumiyo. I saw her yesterday at the GABA party and she E-mailed this morning to meet. Her and I met up and looked for a place that she had a coupon for in Kabuki-cho. The road system thought most of Japan is really bad, with many unlabeled streets, and a poorly laid out network of streets. This was no exception, and even with the map we had difficulty finding the place. Finally we had to ask the police and they did their job and told us where it was.
The place was called Pink Big Pig. It was a comedy club/ entertainment club. When we got there, the girl working gave us a tour of the place. I guess it is pretty popular because they had a board showing all the people that have performed there and there were many TV talents that I had seen before on TV. There were some quite private tables, 2 person Karaoke booths, Darts, and the main lounge area where we sat. It was (食べ放題 tabe ho dai) all you can eat and (飲み放題 nomi ho dai) all you can drink. The food was on a round table and in the middle of the table was a huge spinning disco ball with a big pink pig on it. On stage up front there was a new half dancing and singing, which was pretty creepy, but for some reason Japanese people find it interesting and entertaining. It was just finishing up its act and then during the break two more Gaba people showed up. A guy started playing guitar and piano on stage and he was pretty good, but nothing great. After that I headed home.
