“Chiba Pref. 1988-1994”

We were neighbors then for 6 years as I lived in Kawaguchi , Saitama ( one stop north of Akabane which is in Tokyo ) . Ever check out any of the “ live houses “ in Tokyo when you lived in Chiba ? My band played in a lot of them .

Interesting times. I was very much a family man in those days, three young kids ranging in age from 5-9 when we moved to Kobe.

Any entertainment was on the company tab where we generally stuck close to the neighborhoods of Tsukiji, Ginza and Shinjuku. The former two were within walking distance of company hq., the later was our large exhibition/convention hall which we rented quarterly for a few days.

Only once, I got Shanghaied into one of those waitress bars in Kabuki-Cho but enlisted my boss to stick the client with the tab since it was their choice and not on the list of approved places by our company, which avoided such neighborhoods religiously.

My wife knew what was going on, but trusted me because I was very open with her about where we went. I was also young, virile and made whoopie with her at least every other night, as often as not at her request. A big part of the reason for this was, I think, because she had a very keen sense of smell and feel and wanted to be sure I was actually following the narrow road as I assured her. Keeping a marriage faithful and true is, I think, a big challenge in the business world anywhere but especially so in a big city in Japan where there are so many opportunities to stray.
