must be a bit depressing to take all the gear and themselves over there for the first show of their festival season and then get a crap reaction. especially as i suspect karl is very down over what is happening in Japan (very unusual for us not to get a comment on the diary about the gig). next gig is malta - i was there a couple of years ago the last time they played there and the crowd were pretty young and into the gig so hopefully it will pick them up
