Drum Logos, Fukuoka

This small concert hall faces Nagahama Park and can accommodate only a few hundred fans. But the fans this place attracts carry the energy of a few thousand. Most of the acts that play here are smaller, more intimate ones with die-hard fans. More famous overseas act who do not have a concert-arena-sized following in Japan (yet), like Phish, Ben Harper, and Radio Head to name a few, often schedule a tour-stop here. The inside is all black with a grungy general admission floor and a small balcony. There is a bar in the back from which you will get at least one drink, as the venue requires you to purchase a JPY500 drink ticket when you come in. Security may half-heartedly check your bags at the door, but is in general fairly lax, making drugs and/or cameras somewhat common depending on the act.
