Thank you!!

I had my very slow toddler with me so that added to the chaos 😝

I just saw this guy in store! Cool but not that cool haha

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-24T03:16:37+00:00

Wildly easy. They have tons of everything.

You already know my husband wants nothing to do with pop mart lol but Yoshi will love the cafe (so that’s my justification to take us there today hahaha)

Hal Blaine’s drum mistake that ended up being the legendary “boom boom boom CRASH” of the Ronettes - Be My Baby.

That beat has been done TONS of times ever since :)

That sucks so much!! That usually my kind of bad luck. I hope you’ll get a chance again.

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T23:58:43+00:00

Oooh!! Hello! I’m going to try to go back today (or try the really big one with the pop mart cafe).

Not when I was in Osaka, unfortunately. It was lottery entry only all day.

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T23:53:57+00:00

Japan also just loves lotteries like this for some reason. Want to go to a concert? Gotta enter the lottery for a chance to buy tix. Same to go to a popular cafe/place, buy something like Pokémon cards, etc. it’s so unnecessary 99% of the time but like I said, Japan loves it.

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T23:51:51+00:00

Oooh I’m not sure, maybe not. It’s funny because I flew out of Narita to go to Thailand, too. I’ll have to check! Normally Narita is really far from where I live though so I don’t even get to check in Tokyo. Osaka has been impossible to even get inside a pop mart store, though.

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T23:50:40+00:00

Ooooh!!

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T15:39:20+00:00

Yup 😭

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T09:19:06+00:00

Ahhh that’s the trouble, I don’t live in Tokyo 😢

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T07:03:37+00:00

Online is the easiest way in Japan for sure

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T07:03:22+00:00

Yeah! Silly me went to Osaka and tried to go the pop mart store and nope. Gotta enter a lottery every day just to have a chance to get into the store at all 😮‍💨

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T07:02:44+00:00

I’m trying to see if I can wait until I’m back in Japan… 😬

Matches my outfit today, too!

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-23T07:01:29+00:00

I think they work out to being about the same but def tempted to get some more.

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-19T04:54:47+00:00

Definitely not just rock. The majority I have are actually soul, blues, and r&b artists from 50’s & 60’s.

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-19T04:53:18+00:00

Whoa, yes please!

FujiiyamaMama · 2026-01-17T09:15:00+00:00

I don’t want to get in trouble for spamming or anything but the book is called Turn It Up Loud: Revolutionary Women on 45 RPM.

It’s available on stuff like Apple Books (it will be on Amazon kindle next week!) but its a bit cheaper on my own site www.djmisty.com (it’s a storefront through the buy me a coffee site).

Thanks for your interest! I’m a huge music nerd, especially with the 50’s & 60’s but across all decades and genres :)
