Neil and I met up with some recently-discovered J-bloggers and had good time at the campy izakaya, The Lockup.

That looked like fun. Next time you have plans to hit up a novelty izakaya, give me a ring!

Yep! You get a pass this time since I think you guys usually go to the Hub in Ikebukuro that I don't like...

They are all over the place. One is in Ginza, Ueno, a couple in Shinjuku, Takadanobaba, Ikebukuro, etc. Not too hard to find.

You aren't missing much, Shane. The decent ones are few and far between.

That is pretty much what I was thinking. I'd much rather go to those theme bars. The Hub is nice, but the prices aren't great or anything.

I don't know... ¥670 for a pint of beer isn't bad, IMO.

I think it was actually. TGI Fridays has some decent drink specials. The one in Ueno isn't half bad.

TGI Friday's might be good. Maybe change it up and do the Yokohama one right across from the station.
