There is something about slippers in Japan that make every hard rocker or punk seem wimpy. Nice portrait.

Nice framing! Guitar player with "surippa" is too funny :)

Cool... slippers - it really is a cultural difference, ne?!

Repetition before a concert? Nice light on the guitarist.

There are a lot of great things going on in this photo... the lighting is perfect, I love that it seems to tell a story about these guys, and the guitarist has a great smile like he really likes what he does... very very nice.
