My Tokyo Tokyo Rockwell + Arashi songs experience
I'm so happy today. Earlier I dined at Tokyo Tokyo Rockwell and the staff there was so nice!!
I chose to eat dinner at Tokyo Tokyo because my officemate earlier said that she heard Arashi songs being played when they dined at Tokyo Tokyo SM Centerpoint last Sunday. I wanted to try if I would be able to hear an Arashi song
being played there as I eat because I was so envious of my officemate and of the other fangirls who experienced it previously.
We'll I already tried eating before (at Tokyo Tokyo Galleria) but wasn't able to hear any Arashi song only Utada Hikaru's Flavor of Life. But today, I'm so blessed.
After ordering, I asked the staff do you play music here?
Staff: oh yes! We'll turn it on for you
Me: Thanks.
Then I went and sat at their cozy upholstered sofa with round table good for 12 people. I was alone.
Music started playing... (Imago's song first then other JPOP)
Staff: Here's your order ma'am. Would that be all?
Me: Do you play Arashi songs?
Staff: (puzzled)
Since he didn't get it. I asked, "Do you play Hana Yori Dango songs instead?"
Staff: Yes, ma'am. I'll look for it in the list.
So I waited patiently.
The player went from one song to the other. The other customers didn't seem to mind that the music was switching.
Staff: Ma'am I can seem to find the song list. I'm sorry.
Me: Its ok. (But I was quite sad.)
When I was almost half-way through my meal, I heard a "Yeah Yeah Yeah......"
Oh I smiled and said Whoa!! Arashi's Happiness!!! *grinning*
I was singing happily and moved my head with the song while eating.
Then a non-arashi song was played. And then the staff switched it to Step and Go!!
They were so kind to give in to my request! In their other stores, I think they won't listen to for such requests since they have a huge traffic of people.
Also, to hear an Arashi song, you have to wait for it for hours since the cd is mixed JPOP, Western, and Tagalog songs. If you're not there when it's queued then you won't hear it. Lucky me! I got to request and was fulfilled! :D

uwaa~ sugoi!
i don't really like eating in Tokyo Tokyo but if they play Arashi songs, then yeah, i might as well give it a shot.^^
I dined at Tokyo Tokyo Galleria earlier today (7/9) and was elated to be able to hear Arashi's "We Can Make it". I didn't request though, it was queued in the CD already. ^_^ Cool ne?
