Bape Heads Live Show 2008 - pt 1 - Teriyaki Boyz

I know you've been eagerly waiting!　ごめん！遅すぎ！

here's some of my photos (and of course video) of the Teriyaki Boyz's performance at the World Wide Bape Heads Show:　先木曜日のBAPE HEADSライブショウ香港2008。この始めブログはテリヤキボイズの写真とビデオです：

They started out w/ some fancy graphics.  On the right is one graphic that said 'Hong Kong Suki'... i thought this was kind of funny,  because to someone who doesn't understand Japanese, this may sound like "Hong Kong Sucky",  but actually "suki" (pronounced "ski" in Japanese) means "I/we like".　　後ろのスクリーンは「香港好き」と言いました。でも日本語分からなたら、多分「香港がヤバイ」一寸みたい。

The Teriyaki Boyz is made up of 4 well known Japanese MC's and a DJ, Nigo, owner of Bathing Ape (hence the name of the show and the involvement of Teriyaki Boyz).  They came out with their faces covered by these strange, creepy faces:

They're actually hooded sweatshirts that have a zip-up front:

a little bit of theatrics!

Here's a wide shot of the four of them.  Members include Nigo (DJ), Wise, Ilmare and Ryo-Z from Rip Slyme and Verbal  from m-flo.

Of course I put together a video. ビデオを見てください！ (Apologies on the sound,  its a little bit rough because we were standing right in front of the speakers!)

Actually I'm a big fan of m-flo, so I ended up taking a lot of pics of Verbal:　僕はm-floのファンから、Verbalの写真一杯撮った：

He is famous for almost always wearing fancy sunglasses...

Yes, those glasses cover his nose too,  like a 70's comic book super-hero or something... かっこい眼鏡よ！
