Well, well, it’s finally time to get back into the scene! A big thanks to Nekoi @ Psydoll for the invitation to the Machinery Magic event last month. It was an awesome event with Psydoll, Neurotic Doll, CHC System and Custom Mummy delivering some fantastic music throughout the night.
Stay tuned as Igor gets his black-blooded juices moving flowing again to venture yet another time into Japan’s underground with Japanese Gothic and industrial event information, pictures & viddies, and reports.
I have gone through most of the CDs that I have received relatively recently and don’t have any CDs left to review. Anyone want their CD reviewed? Just contact me via “Contact us” above.
Sometime early yesterday Gothers.com crossed the 2,500 member threshold. I would like to thank each and everyone for joining up with Gothers. THANK YOU!!
As a small token of my appreciation I have decided to put on 22 hours of power where I will stay online from Sunday 2 a.m. through to midnight Japan Standard time. You can work out what time it is in Japan here:

And see all time zones at:

I am not exactly sure what I am going to do as entertainment, but will be online and in the chatroom to talk things up. I also hope to do a CD review of Fashion Bomb!

This will appear on my Japan (and others) Goth blog at:

So, if you have any time to give Gothers a little spin, the Web slob will be online around Saturday to Sunday depending on your time zone. Remember Igor will be online on Sunday from 2 am to midnight Japan time.
Cheers!

Tonight I decided not to go to a really hot-looking event in Ikebukuro Chop which included, among others, Jet Pepper Tower and Speed-ID. It is kind of depressing being here in my tower missing out on these things. Hopefully there will be another wild night at Chop or Urga that I can go to.
Actually tomorrow night there will be a good event at Urga with bands like Nicht and (drool) Destruct System. Hmm, maybe I will have the energy to go there.
After another three-month hiatus to focus on Gothers.com Igor is back in command with his own blog site.
Apologies to those who have been waiting for the next installment of Igorian text. I haven’t been out much, but have been picking up a couple of CDs to review and a few other items. Then, of course, there are the more commercial items that help pay the bills! Stay tuned!
A month and a half has gone by without any posts. This means only one thing… other things are afoot. Currently most of my time is taken up by Gothers.com a social networking site for Goths and dark spirits. It is still small at 1800+ but is growing quite nicely. Then there is my new site that hooks directly into a million plus Gothic dating network called Goth-Match.
I miss writing about things though so maybe there will be more posts soonish.
Cheers,
Igor
It turns out that the tri-City celebration refers to DJs from all three cities turning up to the New Year Countdown in Dark Veil’s new year countdown. Don’t worry, I’ve found another event in Tokyo!
After doing a bit of cleaning up here at JGoth towers I now feel like to blog again. Man, am I out of shape for blogging. The last CD review was a really bad piece of writing, especially considering how much I absolutely love the CD. There’s not much I have on my mind at the moment except a possible text interview with a horror-movie director (totally cool) and putting out some propaganda for one of the events in Tokyo. Oh, then there is the event list that I need to redo and some research into other add-ons for the site. Hang on a minute, that’s actually a lot of work to do. Gadzooks! I better get my mind into gear ASAP. Anyway, it’s nice to be back…
Ho-hum, the pages are doing strange things again. At least Gothers.com is pretty stable (knock on wood).
In other strange news I received a beautiful looking CD case, which I assumed would be for review. Unfortunately there was no CD in said case. Oops. I hope I’m the only one to receive this surprise!
It has been a while since I have blogged here at JGoth.com and even longer since I last updated the events list. It feels kind of weird treading this place again.
I guess since I have been persona non grata in the local Goth scene and launched the surprisingly successful Gothers.com site has taken me away from the ol’ JGoth site and the monomaniacal urge to write about local events has disappated. Not to worry, the major planned events are up and if you are already in the scene you probably have a lot more knowledge of upcoming events than I could put up here.
I miss the gigs and parties and people and vibrancy of this underground scene, but there is never enough time these days. I hope to get to a gig or two later in the year.
For now I just want to say hello to my blog and anyone who is reading it. And if you are looking for party information start by searching Tokyo Dark Castle or Midnight Mess in the search box. Or if you are in Nagoya look for Stigmatic and in Osaka, Dark Veil I think.
Fangs for the memories, I’ll be back soon.
