Ran Magazine Unplugged This Friday at the Hard Rock Cafe, Fushimi

Monday, July 12. 2010
Those wild and crazy guys at Ran Magazine are at it again with another charity event at the Hard Rock Cafe!

Their last event, RockThisTown, was a rocking good time that raised money for the relief effort in Haiti and brought the best of the Nagoya music scene out to party, well, like rock stars. This time, the publishing magnates that are Ran Magazine have decided to put on an Unplugged event. In case you have never seen MTV, and the rock you have been living under is in fact on a different planet, this means that only acoustic instruments-- no electric guitars, drum machines, synthesizer, etc- will be used. It should be a cool evening of tunes, perhaps a bit mellower than last time, but no promises!

This evening will be in support of the relief effort in the Gulf of Mexico working valiantly to clean up all that oil gushing from below the sea. It is an unmitigated ecological disaster of epic proportions and no small source of general pissed off-ness for me. Bad Oil! Bad Government! Bad Consumer! No! No! No!

So come out this Friday, July 16th, from 7pm 'til 10pm at the Hard Rock Café in Fushimi. Dig deep people, and remember that the 500 yen MINIMUM donation will go entirely to the clean up. You do not want to look cheap in front of your date do you? Cough it up and help out!

Looking forward to seeing you there!
