Live Music Bar JET – We're Rockin' the Rock

For those of you who were at Bar JET towards the end of July, the “documentary” that was being filmed is supposed to be airing on NHK at 8:00 a.m. Sunday, 20 August 2006, according to the info told to Taki. For those of you who were not at the bar during the filming, here is some background info. NHK, the Japanese version of PBS, was filming the musicians of the local music scene in the Okinawa City area last month.

I just upgraded the site to the new WordPress 2.0.4 version. If you run into any problems or bugs, please let me know. Thank you.

I just upgraded to the new WordPress 2.03 today.  If you run in to any bugs, please let me know.  Thank you.

Due to a recent loss of an immediate family member, the annual Bar JET Unofficial Start of Summer Celebration, usually held over the last weekend in May, has been postponed until later this summer.  We are sorry if this interrupted anyone’s weekend plans.
Keep on Rockin’

A little while back, I ran across the amazing story of a very unusual duo at the San Diego Zoo. This is a replica of one of the duo, Koza (which means to shine or be bright in Swahili).

Because the story of the duo is so unique (as is the story of the city Koza), we adopted the duo and decided to use this replica of the lion cub as a mascot for Bar JET. Here is another view:
