Playing the best of Japanese Indies and underground (and other stuff). Music you will hear nowhere else! Mike has been fired from every Tokyo FM station at least once and some of them 4 times! I wear it as a stinky badge of honor because FM in Japan sucks so much. Tune in! Be there!

Yes, wiki states Sheena & Rokkets are still active? Did they have someone to replace Etsuko Ayukawa?
Avatar 6:43pm

Really? Yeah, when Ayukawa was alive, I saw they were booking themselves as "Sheena & the Rokkets" (with no Sheena!)... But I guess you gotta eat, so I won't complain about them!
