Me has been invited by comrades at Google to attend YouTube Live Tokyo being held tomorrow in Odaiba.
Scheduled to be on stage at 16:20.
Other guests include BoA, Blue Man Group, Ayuse Kozue, Kreva and Genki Rockets. If you change your regional settings to Japan, you can probably see the event live on youtube - not sure if the following link will work for you > http://jp.youtube.com/

Will also be reporting on the event with Kevin Cooney and Tsukushi and networking with a load of other YouTubers including Magibon, FatBlueMan and more.

Unfortunately it looks like it was some exclusive event where tickets where given to some chosen ones. There is going to be a YouTube Live event in the US too > http://youtube.com/live
Coverage to follow next week.


Have always wanted to see Blue Man Group.

If you are interested in reading about life in Japan, seeing photos taken daily around Tokyo, like Japanese subculture (anime, manga, figures, Dollfies) then you may want to start delving into the Japan or Figure categories for a start or have a gander at all photo articles.

If you don't have much time now, maybe subscribe to the RSS Feed, Twitter Feed or join the other readers in the FaceBook Page.
Alternatively, you may want to read more about the site.
If you are a regular reader then this message will probably annoy you each time - hide it forever.

    Sound like a cool event.
    I'll have to check it out if I'm at home during the event., if it is indeed being broadcast live that is, other wise I'll just watch it once I get the free time to do so.
