I'm a live wire

Setting: Nagoya, Japan
Time: 7:30 am
Soundtrack: AC/DC 'Live at Atlantic Studios'

I was set to wake up at 8:30 am so I could make some phone calls, shower and get down to the lobby to catch a train for Tokyo. At around 5:45 am there were about 10 different sirens going off, circling the area around the hotel. That woke me up pretty well. Falling back asleep was a pipe dream. I "slept" from there until 6:30, then decided it was over. I'm dreading how tired I will be all day, but I can only assume that I'll have to sleep every chance I get today.

Shows have been great. Thanks for keeping the dream alive Japan. Not sure what that dream is anymore, but nevertheless the shows have been feeling incredible. You guys/gals/transgenders rule!

I have eaten some bizarre shit since I've been here, some of which I can only imagine may get me in hot water with someone(s). Let's just say that I didn't know certain things could be eaten raw, nor did I know certain things could be eaten. What an epicurean adventure! Last night, Brian Diaz, AJ, and myself inhaled about 50 of Nagoya's famous wings in less than 2 minutes on our own accord. Kadaver ate 1. Tonight? Who knows. Maybe a feast of many different items. Tomorrow? Possibly the world's only 3 Michelin starred sushi restaurant.

I'm sorry you didn't sleep well.
I'm glad you're having such a kick ass time in Japan.
50 wings...< 2 minutes...that's got to be a record or something.
:]

"You guys/gals/transgenders rule!" thanks for injecting a slight bit of humor in what seems to be a totally normal blog. sorry you got woken up so early though, although it's the afternoon here. glad to hear your having a good time :]

I love Japanese food. I am insanely jealous of you right now.

Ironically, I'm watching the Jackass movie right now and Turning Japanese is playing.

Fave trick for insomnia (which may only work in English-speaking countries): turn on the tv and spell out everything the actors say in your head, like a typewriter. Almost always puts me out.

You know someone that you address as Kadaver? Is said person male and single? Kidding. Mostly.

Awe.. I didn't sleep too great either. I have a middle ear infection so all I could hear was ringing all night.
I'm looking forward to seeing you and the band play in Brisbane again on the 20th of Feb.
See you there =D

Trohman for the Guiness records book! I mean 50 wings in less than 2 minutes? Wow! I'm so happy your tour is going great! Good luck, and try to sleep more!!

dont worry Joe, i had to be rushed to the hospital around 11:00 a.m. today (2/6/09) (1:00 a.m. 2/7 where you are) because my face and hands started to swell and get hives, and when i went to the nurses office, i puked my breakfast. then after laying down for about a half an hour waiting for my grandparents to pick me up, i collapsed right down on the floor. i was at the hospital from about 11:00 to 3:00 which sucked, so dont feel so bad about waking up at 5:45, ive done that before, too.

Haha well aside from sirens waking you up, i'm happy y'all are having fun! =] I don't think I would be able to go to Japan and actually find something to eat because I preferr my food cooked thank you very much lol. So like theres a pretty huge time difference from the U.S. to Japan isn't there? It must be hard getting used to the time zone changes.
