By night, Iโm behind the bar
polishing glasses and chatting
with customers. Then thereโs
my other side,
where Iโm cranking out musicโฆ
Living that double life as a
bartender and a musician
sounds pretty bloody
exciting just hearing about it,
doesnโt it?๐
And when two people
share a love of booze
and music, thereโs a
certain unspoken
understanding between them.
A kind of mutual respect and connection that doesnโt
need putting into words.
If someone like that
ever wandered up to the
counter at my bar,
Iโve no doubt weโd end up
having one hell of a jam session
or a proper deep conversation!
Welcome to Japan,
my mate Elias!
๐ฅ๐ธ๐ฅ๐๐
Bloody hell, youโve got
even more piercings
and tattoos since
I last saw you! LOL

HALLOWEEN NIGHT 2026
WHAT A BLOODY NIGHT!! ๐ค๐ป๐ฅ
Our Halloween event has
officially come to an end!
Massive thanks to everyone
who came along!๐ฅ๐ปโจ๏ธ
Costumes, special cocktails, food, games and live music!
What a cracking night
I couldnโt stop laughing! ๐คฃ
Big cheers to the boss
for all his hard work!
And a huge thank you to
all our regulars who helped make the night so special, as well as everyone who popped in for the first time!
The shark couple even made a
surprise appearance!๐ฆ๐ฉต๐
Thought Iโd share a few
photos we took tonight! ๐ธ
And then thereโs you, Elias!๐๐ธ
Cheers for travelling all the way from the UK to Japan โ thirteen bloody hours just to get here, mate.
Getting to play music with you again, just like the old days, meant
more to me than anything.
We finished the night singing โSame Time, Different Skiesโ together.
Singing that song brought back so many memories of us making
music together in London.
Different countries,
different paths in lifeโฆ
But the moment we start
playing, weโre just like we used to be.
โฆBloody hell, listen to me
getting all sentimental!๐
Elias, youโre still as foul-mouthed as ever, and youโve somehow
managed to collect
even more piercings and
tattoos! You really havenโt
changed a bit!๐คฃ๐
But Iโm bloody glad
youโre my best mate.
Letโs play together
again sometime!
Still friends. Still loud. Still us.
Cheers to everyone for an
absolutely brilliant Halloween!
Weโre planning to do it all
again next year, so stay tuned! ๐ต
GOOD DRINKS. GOOD MUSIC.
GOOD PEOPLE. UNTIL THE DAWN.

The Monster Underneath
A dark, explosive Halloween metal rap anthem exploring the monsters we hide behind, the pain beneath our masks, and the demons that reveal who we really are.
Happy Halloween!

@ClearMindASMR Thank you so much!โบ๏ธ
I really enjoyed colouring
again for the first time in years!โญ๏ธ
Iโd be happy if the soft
colours brought you a
little sense of peace and
comfortโฆ๐โจ๏ธ
I had a go at colouring it
in with coloured pencils!
I used soft pastel colours to make the moon and stars look cute and
give the night sky a lovely, gentle feel!
Get a good nightโs sleep tonight, take it easy and recharge your batteries!
Night nightโฆ
see you tomorrow!

โAnd a Man sat alone, drenched deep in sadness.
And all the animals drew near to him and said, "We do not like to see you so sad. Ask us for whatever you wish and you shall have it."
The Man said, "I want to have good sight." The vulture replied, "You shall have mine."
The Man said, "I want to be strong." The jaguar said, "You shall be strong like me."
Then the Man said, "I long to know the secrets of the earth." The serpent replied, "I will show them to you."
And so it went with all the animals.
And when the Man had all the gifts that they could give, he left.
Then the owl said to the other animals, "Now the Man knows much, he'll be able to do many things. Suddenly I am afraid."
The deer said, "The Man has all that he needs. Now his sadness will stop."
But the owl replied, "No. I saw a hole in the Man, deep like a hunger he will never fill. It is what makes him sad and what makes him want.
He will go on taking and taking, until one day the World will say, 'I am no more and I have nothing left to give...' ~Apocalypto
Just a little thought before calling it a night.
I wish there were more hours in a day.
More time to check on my friends, support my mutuals, laugh with the crew and show appreciation to the people who make this space worth coming back to.
I can't always be as present as I'd like but that doesn't change how much I value you all.
Even in silence, I'm cheering for you.
Take care of yourselves and the people around you.

Elias is knackered after
our day out and fast asleep
on my sofa๐๏ธ๐ด๐คซ ๐ค
โฆLook at the
state of my room๐คฃ
Heโs certainly made
himself at home๐
He can help me tidy up

Iโve got tonight off from the BAR
Looks like a quiet oneโฆ๐ฆ๐๐

Of course youโre welcome!
The more, the merrier!
Just make sure you bring your Halloween spirit with you!

@SAMEPIYO777 I wonder if it was feeling
lonely because it hadnโt been sold?
Or was it happy because its
mates had been bought?
Iโm not really sure, but it
was a cute little onigiri
plushie!โจ๏ธ๐โจ๏ธ
I went to the supermarket
and there was an onigiri
plushie looking at me as if it
wanted me to buy it, but the actual onigiri were all sold outโฆ ๐๐๐ฆ
@SAMEPIYO777 SAMEPIYO๐ฆ๐ฅ๐ซง
Whatโs up?
Of course, weโve got
non alcoholic mocktails
too, so even those who arenโt
keen on alcohol can enjoy
themselves!
Weโve got loads of
sweets and treats ready as well!
Feel free to pop in for a drink!
