Electric Eel Shock are a mad Japanese trio that have been touring around the world for the last 18 months and have another six months to go before they take a proper break.
They are currently in Europe for rest of November AND December - catch them if you can!!!
Electric Eel Shock played the Rock-it Festival in Hong Kong and Gian, the drummer ended up being arrested for his stage attire, the next day and ended up being fined US$32 after hours of explanation.
I'll email the band & their entourage this thread so they
can see the pics - so please BEHAVE!! Thanks!
I met Kazuto Maekawa (Bass) and Tomoharu 'Gian' Ito (Drums!) plus their girlfriends courtesy of Kumi - our local DrumJam guru. On their ONLY day off within a six month period!

After lunch, almost everyone strolled off to the beach; for swimming, fishing and chill-out time.

You pronounce the 'Q' as in 'queue!' It sounds very rude, on purpose! I had to introduce the band last year at Glastonbury, that's how I know. They are a very popular band cos they were booked again for this year's festival. I wonder how much of their attraction is because of the naked drummer? LOL Actually they play an excellent & energetic set!
