Hooray for Humans! Tutus invade Japan like very small white godzillas!

A few months back I excitedly shouted Hooray for Humans because I found out that Africa's much loved Desmond and The Tutus would be touring Japan. The tour is now well underway. With a few cities and shows already down the boys are currently in Tokyo. As if touring Japan and playing rock and roll music weren't awesomeness enough, the Tutus Japan invasion has been multiplied by an additional factor of awesome because the dudes have been joined by Cape Town's own We Are Awesome. The site has already posted a bunch of galleries depicting the Tutus rocking crowds and standing in front of vending machines. Here's a couple pics from Japanone, the first gallery documenting the tour.
