This weekend , me and the guys from Steel body [>] went to Tokyo.
The System Hard core event was a mix of freak performers , tattoo artists , piercings, pole dancers , S&M shows , body painting and some other things i don't even know how to name it !!
But did i had a blast time ? You can bet !
It's amazing how these peoples who look and act soo hardcore can be sweet , friendly and free of any kind judgment towards others .
Seven hours driving each way through snow was well worth !
Thanks to Leo , Jun , Aline (porque ?) and Hitomi for the vibe and fun !
The lady on this pic is S1n Fist3d an extreme pole dancer and performer (google her name , you will find exactly what she can do ;). Behind the mask and the scary contact lens is a fun , cool and down to earth girl . Who did signed a model release without bitch about what i would do with the photos . I wish more "normal" peoples could be as open and nice as she and the other "freaks " there .
I never got a model's release signed so easy like this time ! every single person who i asked to sign it , did it with a big smile on their faces ! And some of them were naked !
God bless you guys !

The "geisha district" , one of the main attractions of Kanazawa . Lovely and calm area to hang out except when some tourist bus stop by and an ocean of
peoples flood the place .

A couple years back Miss Shi took me to Ono city . A place where the local's can make almost anything with a shoyu flavor ,even icecream .
The folks of Ono city still manufacturing shoyu in a old school way what gives the local black liquid a really good reputation . Besides , the area is surrounded by old style japanese houses , quiet streets , friendly peoples and right by the sea .
So if you ever make to Ishikawa don't forget to include Ono city in your list of "must to see " places . Is way off the beaten path of the tourists maps and well worth a visit .

Kaze no bon matsuri . One of the biggest and oldest festival in Japan .
I've been there twice with Miss Shi and had a great time both times.
When the night comes the main show is ready to go . Thousands of peoples are gathering around the city without breaking the atmosphere of feudal japan the festival evokes .
If you are a tourist looking for good food , Japanese traditional music , dance and a taste of old Japan . Kaze no bon matsuri is the gig for you . But if you are a photographer like me it can be a bit frustrating if you not have a tripod with you and a good portable flash . I hope the next version of Nikon's D3 comes with even a better quality for the iso 6400 what is already amazing on it !
I better start to save some money for the purchase when the D3x comes out so i can go to Kaze no bon matsuri this year and get well exposed photos without a tripod and flash !!!!! Dreams , dreams !
