The Fun Starts Here!!! From the far flung corners of the UK the touring party gathers for the trip to Japan......and Bruce the Backline tec improves his reading capabilites by buying a copy of the Sun at Manchester Airport.

After a very smooth check-in we finally meet the rest of the band in the bar at Heathrow!

The flight seemed to last for ever, but Midge and the boys were happy telling each other jokes as usual, and we finally poured out of the plane onto the Airport at Narita, Tokyo and transferred to the hotel....a journey which took us past Disneyland Tokyo, and plans were hatched!

A quick production meeting was held before everyone went their separate ways, before meeting for a trip to see the Average White Band at Sweet Basil 139.
