The man in Japan

Ladies and gentleman, meet one of the coolest dudes in Japan: Mr. Norihiro Nouyama. In the 2 years that I have gotten to know Nori, he's never ceased to amaze me. His ability to melt faces with his superior shredding on his doubleneck bass/guitar are well-known. The man's passion for music is so fierce, I don't think I've met another person quite so driven towards rockin' (other than the old Basement Boys maybe...). Although he always says that he hates coming to karaoke, and that it sounds "fake", you can see by the look on his face in this picture from our karaoke session the other night that he loves to rock wherever he is and whatever he is doing. You are my hero dude, seriously.
