Favoriting The Mike Rogers Show: Playlist from February 16, 2022 Favoriting

Mike Rogers's avatar View Mike Rogers's profile Favoriting

Playing the best of Japanese Indies and underground (and other stuff). Music you will hear nowhere else! Mike has been fired from every Tokyo FM station at least once and some of them 4 times! I wear it as a stinky badge of honor because FM in Japan sucks so much. Tune in! Be there!

great pic, laurapanic. The band I saw, Pianosaurus, were much more bubblegum. They could have played at a kid's fun zone during the day for actual kids, and yet I saw them at a hip underground club.

There's also Twink, the toy piano band, not to be confused with the 70s hard rock band, the drummer, or the internet porn genre.
