First we went to Fukushima City's
Chuck Wagon country bar to see the band play. They sing songs from
the US in the 50's and 60's and in English no less. Other than the songs, they
speak no English.
The guy beside us was a fan and had some hardcore Elvis hair. I was able to capture it with no flash.
Then we went to Karaoke, which is much different in Japan. It's in small private rooms.
This is the heart of the room, the
Karaoke machine. We always request Hyperjoy because
it has English songs. There's a remote that is used to type in the songs and the
machine plays them.
