The third day of shooting, June 13th, began late with a restaurant in Roppongi named SIDEDOOR. It was essentially a steakhouse, with a lovely bar and comfortable dining room. It was... nice, but didn't leave a big impression. I'm sure the food is wonderful (we didn't try any).
We stayed around Roppongi (also known as Gaijin town) and shot a neighborhood feature on it, then drank coffee, and then shot 911 Black, a club.
We actually came back to 911 later that evening to get crowd b-roll and damn, if that place wasn't bumping. I am not the clubbing type, but I had a pretty good time. After shooting (complete with bodyguard to fend off angry peeps) they dropped us in the VIP room, gave us free booze, and... uh, pulled women from the crowd to hang out with us. I guess this is common practice, or an image thing. Anyhow, I had to inform the ladies that I was happily married, which killed the conversation. That and I don't speak Japanese.
Yeah.
