Venue: Akhnaton, Amsterdam

Date: 8 December 2007

Inspired by Japanese fashion street tribes, the Tokyo Decadance party is all about fun, creativity and blind craziness. The TD crew jumped on the first plane out of Japan and crash-landed in Amsterdam to spread their colourful love and the Dutch didn’t seem to be disappointed.

You couldn’t move for Lolita girls innocently sucking on lollies, modern day geishas gliding elegantly along the bar and neon drag queens bouncing around to high NRG dance. The Tokyo Shock Boys took to the stage in eye wateringly bright green boiler suits and wowed the crowds by axe grinding their faces and electrocuting themselves.

There was even an eerie Lolita tea party and a crazy latex chicken laying eggs! This screwed-up wonderland of rainbow colours and sexy sprites was a sight for sore eyes.

The kids from Tokyo succeeded in introducing Amsterdam clubbers to life on their planet.
