Last summer I did a tour with a Japanese band called the "B'z". It was an all stadium tour with over 750,000 total attendance. I have tons of photo's from the tour---this is just the first bunch. I'll post more later. We had an absolute blast playing for huge crowds all over Japan. Just to put the size of the tour into perspective: for our first show we played in front of more people than the last 2 Mr Big TOURS combined. There were about 300 staff & crew, 40 trucks, a 100 meter wide stage, two Jumbo-trons and 7 different camera set-ups. I had played on several B'z records over the years (They've sold about 90 million records in Japan) and they were kind enough to invite me on this tour. A special thanks to the B'z and their incredible staff & crew for a summer I'll never forget. Domo Arigato! (That's "Thank You" in Japanese)

Very nice fan. I think she likes my record. Domo!

Two handed technique vs. No handed technique. Tough choice.

Sold Out Osaka Dome. Yee Haw!

Up on stage. Uh-oh: Bass solo! That ain't no halo around my head! Scratch where it itches!
Tak & I trade off. We jammed!

What a show! Koshi and I bathe in the light.
