Advertising on the road in Tokyo

One of the things I always enjoy seeing in Shibuya, besides pretty girls and hot guys ehehe, are the brightly lit trucks running along the streets playing the latest pop music. Of course, partly because they are of my favourite artistes haha. :'D but also because it's kind of exciting to just see something like that run down the road!

And for the artistes, whta better way to tell people about the latest albums than to play it on the streets while people are bored while waiting to cross the road? probably costs less than a TV commercial too. brilliant :D

Ft island's truck spotted at the Shibuya Scramble. Totally didn't know they had a new album out!

Took this one a while back when I heard a familiar voice playing on the street. IU's new single. Comes in 3 versions. :D 

Andddd Akanishin Jin's new DVD spotted from an overhead bridge. Haven't seen him in a while. 

 I'm always excited to see these trucks, they're kinda like mobile entertainment haha. And you can always see people turning their heads to see where the music is coming from/try to get more of their eye candy/snapping pictures. 

But these are not just limited to plain old trucks. Sometimes, things get a bit more interesting. 

Dundundun. Lone Ranger's truck completely with a life sized Johnny Depp figure asking you to catch the movie in theaters. Also a really good way to make use of a traffic jam, along roads next to pedestrian walkways! I saw this while strolling along Omotesando by the way.

And then there are just weird and interesting ones, lol. Oh Japan :'D

This was for the opening of a new robot restaurant somewhere XD these were soooo annoying! Really loud high pitched voices above noisy music along the streets lol. But I have to say it was really effective since it since it annoyed me to the point of knowing what it was as soon as I even heard a whisper of the voice lol, and virtually everyone I asked had seen/heard it before and knew it was about the robot restarant.

So that's  it for this post! Entertainment and advertisement on the streets, pretty cool doncha think :D
