Fucking A!! @denim-dawg @Stitch I don't have words!
I hope there are some outtakes...

@Karol Oh there are too many… there was even the last edit where we were pretty happy and then my wife said “what the f*** is that?”

We had so much fun planning and making this. Incredible luck that the wild genuine Johnny Daigo had time between touring to spend the entire day with us in Yokohama. Showing us around, talking, hanging out and learning about the fascinating (sub) culture of rockabilly. It used to be millions of them. Now there are only about over a thousand… and Johnny is the biggest from Japan. History and vibe is so cool o don’t know what do do except dance and laugh. He was really generous and good fun to be with and I’m so happy he enjoyed the humour Hahha LIFE JAPAN DENIM CULTURE

@Karol if we had more time the outtakes would be a hilarious - and exposing - episode

@Daniel-San
Bro! That’s so generous of you to say!! Appreciated!!

The hair is actually a wig that was made specifically for me by Hålogaland Teater’s new wig maker and make up artist, Heike Hofmann. She took a photo of Johnny Daugo, measured my head, and got to work. I had it wrapped up on a mannequin head, in my hand luggage along with hair products and gear.. It got crazy hot in the humid day.. ha ha.. Daigo helped to style it on spot

I have so much respect for the Rockabilky culture, and it was as much fun as I had hoped for. It was also wild as there were only the two of us dressed like this, wallets with chains, hair, jeans and boots… I spotted him 400 metres away

Dancing is so liberating, but I’ve never done this kind before. How much fun would it be to be at a gathering with many, all clapping and having a blast.. they usually meet on Sundays in this park in Yokohama. Plan for it for your next Japan trip

@goosehd

Haha - you’re so much zest and fun, good man! Thank you from the tips of our boots to the tops of our hairspray!! I’m so happy that @Alex is so open minded and cool that he lets us go ahead like this. This whole trip was an eye opener on so many levels. It was fabulous to be able to work non-stop on Denim Dawg (those with kids and family understand?), to actually be there, to meet all these incredible kind and fascinating people… we feel humble and grateful. Thank you so much for watching and for writing to us. This has been a wild adventure. SAYONARAAAA ️️️
