\"godz<\/a>

autographs at GODZ in Tokyo including Stratovarius, Outrage, Children of Bodom, and The Crown<\/p><\/div>\n

The metal bar Godz in Shinjuku, one of Japan’s many themed establishments in this genre<\/a>, is not easy to find. You probably don’t want to look at a map as you’re walking the alleys of Kabukicho, or you’ll have five Nigerians all over you trying to get you to go to their place. Study the map beforehand and then walk straight there without talking to anyone or responding to anyone trying to help you. Head downstairs for Godz.<\/p>\n

Once inside, strike up a conversation with anyone, and the rest of the evening will be wonderful.<\/p>\n

Today’s photo is of some signatures hanging on the wall. I took this picture to compare the Outrage autographs to the ones I have hanging in my office<\/a>. It looks like Naoki Hashimoto wasn’t with the band when the other three members signed the one hanging in Godz so maybe this one was obtained around the time of 24-7 or “Cause for Pause”.<\/p>\n
