Weiner Snitzel and 1st Class Flights – Berlin Recap…

Ahh beautiful Berlin.

The party as you can imagine was great as shown in the last bloggy blog.

Good Food, interesting people, and I can vouch for the good music.

As much fun as the party was, the experience of berlin and chillin in this historic cultural town was even better…

the underground

From the moment we got on the plane it was gonna be a good trip. My manager and I got upgraded from coach to First Class Fo FREEZY because Coach got oversold. Its like when racism works in your favor.

1st class is definitely nice… not worth it if I actually had to pay for it, but compared to coach, its another world ;)

The day the block party was supposed to happen got rained out unfortunately, so we turned it into a tourist day. With our friend and fellow Hypebeast blogger Artoo, Phil G from Soto/MADE, and Thomas and Stephan, we got to see the city thru the eyes of the locals.

Kerin Cycle Culture Cafe was an early stop on the West Berlin Side for some coffee…

Finally, we attempted to check out the new Damien Hirst Show at the museum, but missed it by half an hour. my fault for spending so much time at the record store :( BUT, we did get to see some other small pieces… Some dude name warhol for example ;)

The night before we hit up a spot called BAR 25 by the River that is known for being an all weekend party affair. Beautiful Spot with amazin food…

At this spot, I had the most excellent Weiner Snitzel . Breaded veal I believe. Delicious. and Very German. Like Sprockets.

IMG_0561

All of this was great ;) Berlin is a beautiful town, but our last stop there was a place called
the MADE creative space, and that was the HIGHLIGHT. That my friends, will be for tomorrows blog….

Back in 2018, when Lili was about 8 months old, we Back in 2018, when Lili was about 8 months old, we saw the #unicorngundam for the first time.  We had to make sure to say goodbye one last time. This life-size #gundam is being dismantled... But the rumor mill suggests that it will reappear for the @g_base_tokyo 50 year shenanigans in 2027.  So hopefully, this isn't goodbye... But see ya later.  #Gundam#UnicornGundam#RX0 GundamUC GundamBase Tokyo Odaiba Tokyo Gunpla ガンダム ユニコーンガンダム ガンダムUC ガンダムベース東京 お 台場 ガプラ 実物大ガンダム
Most of ya'll know I was one of the founding membe Most of ya'll know I was one of the founding members of a #dj crew called the 5th platoon. Not all of us are in the first picture. Missing is @cousinvinnieroc and @kwonboysny aka do-boy. Of course shout out to our first lady DJ Kuttin Kandi.  The first picture was used for our press pics when we were sponsored by @stanton_dj_. We were very early adoptors of #digitalvinyl via the product #finalscratch.  This iteration of the squad included a young upstart named I.emerg.  He won the @dmcdjchamps back to back in 2004/2005. He also won a buttload of other battles - guitarcenter, ITF, koolmixx, scion (yes the car company) and I can say with a fair amount of certainty that he won the MOST cash prizes of any #battledj ever. We did a calculation one year, and he came home with 60k all from winning dj battles.  Not a showcase, not a party set. 60 from just whoopin peoples *sses.  The 2nd picture was taken at the @wsidjbattle  invitational scratch battle at @djxshowofficial  in Atlantic city, which merge decided to join last minute a few weeks ago.  Without letting merge know, us  3 founding members of the 5P decided to go down to Atlantic city and surprise him.  The 4 of us in the second picture - djdaddydog, @djrolirho yours truly and @funeralballoons aka I.emerg haven't been in a room together in almost 20 years... And although I don't even live on the same hemisphere as these guys anymore,the universe figured out a way to bring us together, even if it was just for the briefest of moments.  There was a time when we were thick as thieves. Merge used to live with me, and of course we did a solid 3-4 years of battling (he did most of the battling of course) and touring.  But of course... Life happens... And a lot of life has happened in the last 20 years. But this short time together felt like the old days...  Now, a little birdie told me that ya'll gonna be seeing a lot more of merge in the future, and lord knows I'm looking forward to that. Crossing my fingers that ya'll get to witness his greatness.  Shout out to @djimmortal305
And the faderballistix, I.emerg's other squad who been  holding him down from jump.  #Throwbackthursday
The only constant in life is change. Way back in The only constant in life is change.  Way back in 2021, like many #djs and lovers of music, our focus turned to #livestream shenanigans on @twitch.  Around March of that year, yours truly, @lestalusan and @mikecmusic started a #raidtrain dedicated to our love of all things #newwave.  A lot of times we would have guest join us in our musical exploration, but at least once a month for the last 5+ years, at least us 3 got jumped on #twitch to play music for ya'll.  This upcoming Monday August 31st  will be the last time @mikecmusic closes out the raid train as one of the regular not ready for prime time players.  The final schedule Will be announced shortly, we will go from 8pm est til??? @mikecmusic was notorious for going into the wee hours of the morning.  We hope you guys will help us end this chapter with a bang...
One of the first things I did when I started comin One of the first things I did when I started coming to Japan was visit the @g_base_tokyo in odaiba. Just seeing a real life size robot was... Insane.  Unfortunately August 31st will be it's last day based in odaiba. Unsure what the future holds for this real life mecha. It will a sad day for my fellow nerds.  If you are in Japan, ya'll should see it before it's gone....  #gundam #japan #tpkyo.
Last week I returned to Hawaii right when hurrican Last week I returned to Hawaii right when hurricane lala landed. As you see, my building got flooded, and even worse my building was one of the ones that lost power for multiple days.   During a power outage, I don't have running water - so can't go to the bathroom, no showers and probably worst of all... I gotta go down and up 27 flights of stairs.   Annnd because I had a flight to Japan, and to do this 27 floors with luggage in tow.   Still all in all, what I went thru was a MINOR inconvenience compared to many.   People loss their homes, their possessions, suffered injuries and there was at least one direct casualty.   And although that trip down the stairs sucked... All I got was sore arms.   Some people are still without power... Speaking of which...Gary Indiana has been without power for multiple days.   Please scroll thru the carousel. 
If you have ever come to Hawaii and enjoyed the land, the people who call this land home could use your help.  One of the #reposts is from @hawaiimutualaid who has set up a fund to verified ohana and local businesses.  The other is from @chestergregory who addresses ways to help out Gary Indiana during their time of need.  If you are able too, there are folks in need of financial help. Lord knows that I know times is tough, so please take care of yourselves first and formost.  It cost nothing to repost and share this information on your platforms, so spread g the word is much appreciated.
I'm back in Japan, taking a break from #girldad du I'm back in Japan, taking a break from #girldad duties and playing with @pokemon creatures with @babylilisworld (because it's Japan they just be everywhere didn't ya know) to stream and play some Music for #rnbonasunday. I'll be back on at my usual 8 Pm est time slot. Come. Thru.  August 23rd.

Heading back to 808 for a weekend before I bounce Heading back to 808 for a weekend before I bounce back to Japan. Crossing my fingers that we don't get stuck in the tropical storm.  Assuming all goes well, I'll be with @joseph_future and @dj.lv.ra tonite August 15th Sat at @bar35hawaii.  The tomorrow, it's time for #rnbonasunday. I'll be on at 8 Pm est on my @twitch channel  Http://twitch.tv/djneilarmstrong.  Come thru.
I got to be in the presence of greatness from the I got to be in the presence of  greatness from the beginning. The @nba #rookiephotoshoot 2008. Taught this future hall of famer how to baby scratch.  Drafted 4th overall to the Seattle supersonics, who moved that July to okc, which is why he's in an @okcthunder Jersey.  As a side note, folks used to call me Asian Russell Westbrook. I also look like asian @mike_singletary50 .  Thank you @russwest44 for your 18 years of top tier basketball. I was thoroughly entertained.  Also, #knicksin5
