His label Simply Thrilling has released 4 CDs featuring Japanese bands, while the video offshoot has released 3 DVDs capturing the Japanese Live House experience. I'm already looking forward to some fortnightly visits to Tokyo this year, where I currently find I'm able to go to a gig pretty much every night. If this sounds like your idea of a perfect holiday, then the Tokyo live circuit is a lot easier to navigate than it was when I first explored it.

Families of both men were in attendance as they have been at previous dinners. With hundreds of venues all over the city showcasing awesome talent, it can be hard to know where to even start. We've rounded up the 10 best live music venues in Tokyo for catching that sweet home-grown indie sound. The live houses may have been designed at best with functionality in mind. Many could quite accurately be described as little more than black boxes - but they all seemed to be the ideal size. The shows generally started around seven o'clock and most commonly featured four or five bands finishing up around ten to ten-thirty.

The performance in the adjacent room is streamed on a TV near the bar, too, so you don't have to worry about missing anything. From  jazz clubs to DJ bars, the (live) music scene in Tokyo has been thriving for decades and only seems to be getting better and better, with top-class acts from all over the world drawn to the metropolis's unique venues and enthusiastic live music fans. But the local scene is where you'll find the heart and soul of Tokyo music, with a warm music community that's both sprawling and incredibly interconnected. This basement live house is outfitted for funk, with its checkerboard stage and overhanging disco ball. The genres of music on play here reflect its eclectic decor, with everything from traditional rock acts to disco to R&B. The space is small and intimate, with tiny tables and chairs that can be pushed out of the way to make a dance floor.

What to know about California’s new state park, a scenic green space where two rivers meet

Pro-Palestinian protesters remain on Columbia University’s campus in New York City, defying an ultimatum from its administrators to leave by 2pm ET or face suspension. Activists condemned Johnson last week, after he said Hamas “backed” the protesters. While the group has praised the demonstrations, there is no evidence they have been involved in their organization. Students joining in hate-filled, antisemitic protests at any public college or university in Texas should be expelled. The Texas governor, Greg Abbott, has said no encampments will be allowed after at least five people were arrested at a protest at the University of Texas at Austin on Monday afternoon.

Dozens of local and state police – including some in riot gear – were seen encircling the encampment. Several protesters have been seen being treated for heat-related illnesses, according to local media. To get inside Saturday’s dinner, some guests had to hurry through hundreds of protesters outraged over the mounting humanitarian disaster for Palestinian civilians in Gaza. They condemned Biden for his support of Israel’s military campaign and Western news outlets for what they said was undercoverage and misrepresentation of the conflict.

The Biden administration announced that it “strongly opposes” a group of Republican-backed bills expected to be considered by the House this week that will target its environmental regulations. Joe Biden and Mexican president Andrés Manuel López Obrador pledged to search for new ways to decrease border crossings by undocumented migrants, as the US president faces pressure to crack down on the issue of immigration ahead of the November elections. Do you have any tales of late nights in dark places in Japan's Live House scene? This can be done simply by contacting one of the bands playing and giving them your name which will be added to the list on the door.

In the weeks since, he has again worked with the House minority to pass legislation approving aid to Ukraine and Israel, and reauthorizing a controversial surveillance law. Polls have indicated that Americans are markedly concerned about migrants entering the country from Mexico, which have surged under Biden’s presidency. The president has called for Congress to change immigration policy to give him the power to turn back more arrivals, but the Senate rejected a recent bipartisan deal to do so in part due to the opposition of Donald Trump. The presumptive Republican presidential nominee allowed the separation of migrant families during his first four years in office, and is reportedly planning mass deportations of undocumented people if returned to the White House. “It is disgraceful that the International Criminal Court (ICC) is reportedly planning to issue baseless and illegitimate arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and other senior Israeli officials,” Johnson said in a statement. At her ongoing briefing to reporters, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said the Biden administration does not support the international criminal court’s reported investigation into officials from Israel and Hamas.

Each of the neighborhoods in the Los Angeles area has a distinct vibe, so you’re sure to find the best neighborhood for you. Their weekly open mic night on Tuesdays is an institution and where a good chunk of local musicians get their start (and find their future bandmates). Depending on the night of the week, the vibe can go from chill acoustic to cluby, but you can be sure to catch something special whenever you stop by.

A recently renovated first floor live/work co-op at 31 West 12th Street (listed at $3.2 million) features two bedrooms and two bathrooms with elegant 10-foot ceilings, lots of custom cabinetry, plus a chef’s kitchen and direct access to the common outdoor area. Three floors, including a main level with 15-foot beamed ceilings and 11-foot windows, make this multi-use loft at 529 West 42nd Street (yours for $1.78 million) an ideal place to wile away the hours, at work and at rest. …Fast Forward “Back with the shits again” providing the Miami experience from the perspectives of Kings and Queens, the “Real-Lifer$”. It might not look like much from the outside with its no-frills storefront, but this family-run Armenian joint serves up some of the best kebabs and salads in this major city. Downtown LA is full of amazing landmarks, including the breathtaking Bradbury Building, which was built in 1893, and the iconic Angels Flight Railway in the Bunker Hill district, and the historic El Pueblo de Los Angeles. However, over the years, gentrification has brought new development and businesses to the area, revitalizing this once-avoided area of DTLA.

With wall-to-wall live painting, live video-projected painting, a giant opalesecent moon dropping from the ceiling and a second floor balcony overlooking it all, this might be one of the most beautiful live music venues in Tokyo. The 200-capacity two-storey space is designed to put the music front and centre, with a low-key bar along the wall at stage right and tons of little tables on both the ground floor and balcony, giving you a great view of the stage from wherever you sit. The best part of this venue, besides the top-of-the-line bands it attracts, is the layout. Unlike most Tokyo live houses, the space is divided into a raucous stage area and a quieter bar area. A relatively sound-proof door separates the two, so you can easily step out of the high-energy din for a mellow drink and chat.
