A note from Benny regarding tonight’s show in Tokyo
I’m sorry to report that in an effort to conserve power in Tokyo, and
for the general safety of everyone coming in and out of the city, the
show has been canceled. We finally made it to town after an
extremely wild day and would love to play, but fully respect the
decision of the club and promoters to put it off. Over 4 million
people are without power and it is obviously in very bad taste to use
amplifiers and lights in a time like this.
We are deeply sorry and deeply concerned for the people up on the
Northern coast and anyone else who’s friends and family are in need.
It’s an absolutely brutal situation and nothing like we’ve ever
experienced. The Japanese people have handled this situation with the
kind of respect and grace I don’t think many places in the world can
match. People should really take notice as to how well they’ve
treated each other in such a tragic time, in the face of so much fear
and doubt. Truly commendable.
It’s an incredibly unfortunate situation, but in reality, we got
extremely lucky and dodged a bullet. Again, we wish nothing but the
best for the people dealing with this and hopefully we can re-schedule
the show as quickly as possible.
All our best,
Benny TGA
