And with a Dymo label-maker! This is the true spirit of DIY, Naoko would approve! Yes, that was my point!   picture uploader |

ME : Naoko likes me ♥
YOU: Why not… she likes all her fans. Except scary persons.
ME : No, I wished her well on her ba–su-de–, and she answered me right back.
YOU: That’s just business. Don’t forget how polite Naoko is.
ME : She said, thanks a lot! Exclamation point!
YOU : Tomato Head has two part-time employees for things like this.
ME : Then she said, rock forever! With a smiley!!
YOU: The part-timers check output from a Python script and click “send.” They do 500 an hour on birthdays and holidays.
ME : No way. I said, keep on rocking and she said, rock forever.
YOU: Script uses keywords and translation APIs from Google. The guy who did it is working for Honda. You got a tweet from a bot.
ME : Naoko likes me ♥

LOL, don't let her husband find out, Romeo! Not to worry, our love is pure. Besides, I would hope Naoko's spouse is up to date on everything. How can you say you love someone if you won't even lurk on their pro board?  |

Time and place of birth? How do we reckon SK's actual first breath? Moment of conception: Naoko makes the 99th phone call to set up a weekday golf date for some fathead in the office where she works. Birth of the band: first time Naoko lies to her parents about going shopping, when she is really off to a bad part of town to meet the other girls in their practice space.  |

The birth of SK would indeed have been as strange thing to see... Ok Michie, we both bought guitars and a used set of student drums for Atsuko... Can you play yours? No? Me either... hey Att-chan, hit the round things in some kind of order... ok, good enough.

A golden shambles of affection, mild embarrassment, and joy. Are these not some of the most lovable people on earth? I'm happy to be able to see this!
EDIT: I took a good look at that cake, and if I understand correctly, the birthday celebration is for the venue itself. The Oita AT Hall opened 10 years ago and its anniversary coincided more or less with the Brinky/SK date.

Would any other band be so sweet with one of their cover bands?

Happy Birthday Shonen Knife,33 years old today. I went poking around in the band biography pages at shonenknife.net. Naturally there is a first page, dated 1981 December 29. The Japanese version says, "Shonen Knife formed in Osaka, December 29." The barely-there English version is more explicit: "Gave the first rehearsal in Osaka, Japan." So, yeah, skswede, I guess that's where and when the first stake was put in the ground! And thank you for reminding the forum! |

? happy birthday?
