00:00I spent some time in Tokyo, and they have more Japanese listening bars, so it's kind of a place that just has high fidelity audio, a lot of the time they'll be playing exclusively records, and it's just for audiophiles and people that love music to be able to sit, enjoy, have some great food, great drinks, and just listen to some great tunes.
00:22Yeah, it's been lovely, lots of people have come in to see us, we've had lots of people saying there's a big buzz going around about it, and people have come in to check it out, been really kind, and wished us luck, and got themselves some breakfasts, and all the food's turned out really well, the drinks are delicious, so yeah, I'm really chuffed with how it's gone actually.
00:41I'm just working really hard with the people that I love, and putting our ideas together, and collaborating, and just the feeling of love and support is for me everything.
