Toshi as "the Wild Horse"Wednesday night Manu invited me to to go out with him, Helene, and a few a Helene's friends for a drink in Shinjuku. Helene took us to a really cozy little Australian bar called 'Draku' in the 'Golden-Gai' district. They served Vegemite on toast and, boy, it was tasty, but I had to bounce fairly quickly to meet meet an old pal, Toshi, and his cohorts in Ebisu at 'What The Dickens!'. Upon arrival I realized Toshi was already fairly smashed and it definitely added to to the good atmosphere; at one point Toshi and his bandmate, Alister, requested (yelled) a Rolling Stones song and their friend who was playing decided "Wild Horses" fit the description. As he got into the song one of the ladies in Toshi's entourage pulls out this horse mask she had just purchased for her Halloween costume. It was immediately slapped on Toshi's head and he trotted around in the pub screaming and making horse sounds. It was a perfect coincidence and everybody there thoroughly enjoyed it.
