Favoriting The Mike Rogers Show: Playlist from October 28, 2023 Favoriting

Mike Rogers's avatar View Mike Rogers's profile Favoriting

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!

Hi Mike, Which section of Tokyo is the Nikki Corvette show in? Do you take all your recording gear on the (JR) train?

Shimokitazawa...I should read first.

Did Coco of the Let's Go finish writing that song for Nikki?

Oops! No. They have been touring all around Japan everyday. I don't know how Nikki can handle it....

Nikki's first day off (I think) is tomorrow.

Ted! I saw a photo of Nikki's band this morning. It was 4:45 am or so, so I was just waking up, they were sitting on a street outside in (Kobe was it?) They looked like they were up all night drinking!
Avatar 8:44pm

The photo was time stamped at 4:50 am or so.

↳ Mike Rogers @8:43
Is Nikki's touring band Japanese or North American?
Avatar 8:52pm
Mike Rogers:

↳ Ted @8:50
Japanese!
Leader of the Fadeaways (bass)
Leader of the Let's Go's (Guit)
Cherry drummer from Portugal Japan
So they are called the "Tokyo Corvettes"
Avatar 8:54pm
Mike Rogers:

It is like a super all star band! Nikki has toured Japan before with this band!
Avatar 8:58pm
Ted:

↳ Mike Rogers @8:52
Sounds like a fitting band for her. It reminds me what Paul Collins used to do when he touring machine from 2010-2019. He had an Euro version of the Beat and an American version. He even toured mainland China in 2014: news.pollstar.com...

I think it is just smart. Just hiring local musicians. They won't give you a headache (if they do fire them) and they are great musicians, no airfare!

econo-band. Like the early days of rock 'n' roll in the '50s.

They did that back then? Makes sense to do so!

Yes, that's how many younger U.S. rock 'n'roll and country musicians got their chops, stage experience and preparation for the '60s.

Hope all goes well tonight in Shimokitazawa and you can even enjoy the show with your wife.

Mike Rogers:

↳ Ted @10:02
It's weird. My wife doesn't really like the music I introduce to her, but in the few times she has tagged along, she got along wonderfully with musicians. Siouxsie and Budgie LOVED her. It was weird to me... Maybe something to do with studying classical music.

Perhaps it's refreshing for them to meet a classically trained musician vs. the usual hanger-ons, barflies and demanding fans.
Avatar 11:00pm
Mike Rogers:

↳ Ted @10:59
Yeah. My wife usually doesn't even know of they are famous... So she treats them like normal people.... I guess they like that.

You're making modular synth??? That's so cool!!

Thanks Mike and Ken. Ken-I catch your show in the archives when I can really soak in all your information and mostly new-to-me-music.
