All Photos by Hiroto Taniguch

Hi everyone, Vol.3 was another great event for the Club PI, it`s going from strength to strength....The original Sapporo Ska Rude boyz HIGE GAKUDAN gave us an unforgettable show of pure energy of sound. Dropping all their classic numbers, the adrenaline feeling was like the old 2Tone days in the UK (circa 1979).

Kicking off the evening DJ Machin dropped his debut set for club PI and nicely warmed up the crowd with some fantastic Mod Jazz tracks..

Then Birthday boy, Yamadasan gave us his usual twist & shout of 6T`s soul and British beat classics!..check out his DJ mix above.

After the band Dj Mago and keiron b, continued the show with the ska & rocksteady vibes into the early morning hours..
Finishing off what was a superb night with shiro`s cake & champagne.

So to all of you...a big Domo Arigato Gozaimasu for enjoying what turned out as a classic evening!

Power of Sound!

Well, what another great night for the club pi and moving to a bigger venue the crowd didn`t disapoint us, with some well know sapporo faces in attendance, hige gakudan. The original beard and mustache boys turned out in style. Hopefully we can get these guys to do a live set with us someday. The Heatwave boys kicked off the evening, followed by a sizzling ska set from Hidevicious and then Shiro Yamada laying down his own brand of british beat.
But the highlight of the evening commenced a short time after keiron B. & dj Mago were flexing their tunes, back 2 back....

The Silverstars tune "Last Call" was the que!

Up stepped the main man PAPA B. to wax lyrical on the mic over the ska step, to an enthusiastic crowd....jumping on every note to the verbal energy of the top toaster...Nobody wanted it to end!....So a BIG Arigatoo to Papa B. for a great set...seen!

Let`s do it again soon..

DJ Shiro & Ishikawa (aka, travolta or gay donkey)
The Beginning came and went and we`ve only just got over it! On saturday 29th November, the evening kicking off @ 10pm the first event of Club PI took place. The venue reverberated to the sound of Ska, Rocksteady, Northern Soul, Funk and all kinds of 60 & 70`s British Beat music.... A taster of what dropped on the night from the DJ sets...
