Weezer: Zepp DiverCity Tokyo, Odaiba 2nd August 2023 JAPAN

Weezer have been in Japan! They played three shows: Fuji Rock, Osaka and Tokyo. I went to the Tokyo show but also saw Rivers in Hiroshima. I wish I had gone to the Osaka show too, but I didn’t want to do Tokyo to Hiroshima to Tokyo to Osaka to Tokyo.

april memories
I’ve been really terrible for blogging recently, I apologise for that.  I haven’t been tending to take many photos either whilst I’ve been out and about but I’ll share the ones that I have taken.

I started off the month by going to see the cherry blossoms (you can see more pictures here if you would like).  This below two photos are at Yasukuni Shrine.

Then these were taken at The Imperial Palace, at the moat.  The queue for the boats was ridiculous.

 
The new Scott & Rivers album came out in April (go buy it if ...
