Big brats!! err no.. Mini brats..

I’ve been loving my convertible Mini that I was allowed to play with for a few days. I’ve been broadcasting my Inter FM program Global Satellite each week from Mini Ginza event space & the lovely people at Mini let me test drive one of their spunky cars.
On a hot & steamy Tokyo night I put the top down & went for a spin around town. I discovered one great thing about driving a convertible - everyone wants to talk to you. When I was stopped at the lights at Shibuya crossing loads of spunks checked out me & my car, winked, said hi & even yelled out nice car!!
I was doing this drive solo - I love just getting behind the wheel & driving around with no map & no plan. But I had a lot of company with friendly strangers on the streets of Tokyo thanks to my sexy convertible Mini..

Once every week I’m broadcasting my Inter FM program Global Satellite live from the very cool Mini Ginza event space in Ginza, Tokyo & the lovely people at Mini gave me a convertible Mini to play with for a few days!! Together with my Mini Ginza program co-host Michael Rivas I took the spunky sporty little car for a spin from the Inter FM studios in Tenozu, to Shinagawa wharf overlooking Tokyo Bay with Rainbow Bridge, Odaiba & jets flying in to Haneda. Then we zoomed off to the lovely Omotesando..

Still recovering from Fuji Rock Festival & keeping the madness going I broadcast my Inter FM program Global Satellite live from Mini Ginza on Wednesday 2010.8.4 together with co-host Michael Rivas.
Scissor Sisters & Jason Derulo were our special guests..

ooooooh.. but he’s got hair.

With Yuriko & French electro poppers Jamaica on air.

Kitty, Daisy & Lewis live on air at the Inter FM booth.
I had a brilliant cosmic coincidence during this interview - earlier that day I’d lost my very much loved Japanese fan, which is an essential (or possibly psychological) cooling tool in summertime, but when Lewis was on air he whipped my fan out of his pocket & said he’d found it in the mud at the festival!! Voila - my fan came back to me. But Lewis told me he really loved that fan.. so I had to let him keep it. He was a very happy boy & took a piece of Japan (& a piece of me) back home with him. You can just see my fan sticking out of Lewis’ breast pocket, together with his Camels & chopsticks (in case he gets hungry).

Misty mountains at Naeba. I sometimes spend more time zoning out at this view than watching bands.

There’s a great spider’s web here in the window of the hotel room.

On Monday 2010.7.26 I broadcast my Inter FM program Global Satellite live from the new & cool Mini Ginza showroom & event space. I played in a Mini, I had a giggle at the cheeky Mini goods on sale, I even had fun in the loo.. & I was joined on air by co-host Michael & special guest singer/guitarist Kai.
I’ll be broadcasting live from Mini Ginza once every week until September - come by & say hi!!

It was a hot & steamy evening in Tokyo but we were transported to a British summer’s day at the Ambassador’s residence of the British Embassy for a premium event with Virgin Atlantic Airways, Dunhill, HSBC, Jaguar & Range Rover Motors. The wine was flowing from Berry Bros. & Rudd and canapes were served from Gordon Ramsay at the Conrad Hotel. Illustrator Jack McLean sketched the evening & I DJ’d a rare set of English classical music, 1920’s jazz & smooth soul..

Congratulations to the Guy Perryman Membership Black Card holder who won free tickets to the TLC exclusive live show at XEX Atago Hills. On the 42nd floor Wednesday 2010.7.21 we were up close & personal with the 2 girls that are hotter than a Tokyo summer’s day!! They were not only hot.. but funny, fun, sexy, soulful & generous. They signed a million autographs, schmoozed with the glam crowd & even Chilli’s teenage son was there. And the champagne was flowing freely all night. There was a no pic policy of the TLC performance but here’s a quick look at the night..

Everyone’s been talking about the Tokyo summertime heat, sunsets & sunrises..
