OTTOMEN RECORDS – HOME OF THE OTTOMEN

TRANFORMERS THURSDAY with JuSTIN Dingdongpotatomouth

August 10th, 2011 by justin

I remember the days of playing guitar with the OTTOMEN in 2006. I got to feel the full phallic satisfaction of playing lead guitar. THis was my favorite tune to rock on the stratocasterblaster. This video is not good audio/video but it is rare, so eat it !

Justday Thur. IT’S MY TIME HERE

June 9th, 2011 by justin

********WARNING! ************

******** Sad song ************

This song came out of living in Los Angeles, but really started to take meaning when I found myself in Tokyo everyday, surrounded by masses of people who never greet one another, speak a formal language to ensure boundaries are established between strangers and live alone in apartments too small to have friends over for a movie or drinks.

I shot this video with my phone.

I played two trombones on this song.

The location is mostly Isetan (the neiman marcus of Tokyo), the streets of Shinjuku and the back hall of the school where I teach.

Right now we are just practicing for the plethora of concerts coming up in the next few months. Justin might return to the STL to play in September or he might be going on a world tour with his band in LA. Only time will tell.
