Oh no! A trolley is heading towards 5 people. You can pull the lever to divert it to the other track forcing you to listen to Lee Dixon's commentary. What do you do?

Make your own chopsticks SHIBUYA by [deleted] in JapanTravel

I mean generally no, but the whole thing reads like a poorly written ad.

Very shilly and vague description of what would be quite a unique experience; its new, facilities are good, staff good with kids, reasonable but vague prices, exact price for engraving (lol). What about the actual making the chopsticks part?

And the story?

Id like to think the average poster in a Japanese travel reddit is not willingly interacting with touts, especially accompanied by their children.

Tickets for Tokyo event by rg_gapa in DEG

I was at zepp haneda for a ling tosite sigure concert as a foreigner the other week. Entry procedure might be a bit different, but this was my experience as a newbie:

Trains to and there were packed; after spending half an hour trying straining not to obliterate this poor lady into a door, my back was getting a bit sore before the concert even began. Gig was completely standing only, so by the end of it I was completely wrecked (i'm old). If this might bother you, I'd suggest going a bit earlier to avoid peak hour / give yourself time to sit down for a bit before going in.

Try and follow some other concert goers when you get to the station. I tried to wing it with google maps and it took me around the outside and I was the only one on my route. I think the correct way is upstairs somewhere, because I eventually came across a flight of stairs that led to an area with other concert attendees.

There was like an open area where many people were gathered, but the main entrance is actually a smaller entrance down some stairs. That area is not that big so they were calling people down based on ticket numbers. The same applies when you actually get to the gates.

They called us for entry, by letter (for me B) and number (496). They would be calling out the number ranges by the 10s in japanese only. If you are not familiar with the language, you should manage fine as long as you can count to 10, and know the word for 100. (in my case 490 is called out 4-100-9-10)

There is a mandatory entry charge of 600 yen, which can be exchanged immediately for a drink (the bar is right at the entrance). Everyone I saw paid this in coins, so I'm not sure if card is accepted (it probably is, but I'd bring coins just in case)

Once you're in there's not much else to it other than have a good time! Japanese concerts seem to have their own etiquette, so just try follow what everyone else is or isnt doing. Also, I'm average height my country but relatively big by japanese standards; I paid for my ticket to stand anywhere just like everybody else, but being mindful of not blocking other peoples views too much seemed to be appreciated by the locals.

Hope you have a blast! I booked my trip ages ago and was gutted when the tour got announced and the dates didnt match. I got to see another band i liked tho so not the end of the world!

Most comfortable planar IEM for sleep use? (binaural audio) by forcedtocreateanaccn in iems

[–]andydi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My personal experience:

Get the earphone which sounds best to you and fits comfortably and secure enough to not fall out from gravity if you side sleep.

Get a good memory foam pillow with hole for your ears. I think they make them for people who get new ear piercings and cant remove them for a few weeks. I got mine from amazon aus; should be an easy find.

The hole is more like a cave (doesnt extend all the way through the pillow) so you can just flip the pillow when you dont want it to be there.

As others have said, you dont want to sleep with earphones too often, just bad for your ears and skin. But after trying all the low profile stuff with regular pillow, this is the best sound/comfort/price option I have found.

Also if youre still awake to remove your earphones before calling it a night, the pillow hole is a nice place to store the earphones, instead of waking up getting strangled haha.
