PabloWinchester Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 Nude Restaurant in Kobe runs once a month. David Flynn often plays at it, so as stated, he's your man. Keb too. Their blog is here (in Japanese) but it's regularly updated. https://ameblo.jp/nuderestaurant/ You can find them on Facebook too. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100051852406513 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Mark W Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Be interested to hear if you find anything happening. I’ll be in Tokyo for latter part of May so appreciate if you can keep this thread updated with any nights there as would certainly take a look. Nude Restaurant looks the business, be great if any similar venues in Tokyo Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

davenjane Posted August 2, 2023 Author Share Posted August 2, 2023 right sorry for the delay, we went to japan in may, went to the nigt fox club in shabuya on the sunday night and o my god what a welcome. went up to room in a lift and the lift doors opened up in the room where the soul night was booming. the room was a bit small but was made up in inthusiasm . the music was very good and the organisor toshio was very welcoming, took some embroidered badges to pass round (very glad to get them). although they still smoke in bars and resturants came out smelling of ciggys took us back a long way. planning to go back japan again and will definatley go to the night fox club again. 1 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
