LOL - had to jump in here to correct a few things. I've lived in Singapore for the last 4 years. It is not illegal to chew gum in Singapore - just to sell it (which is because they don't like cleaning it up) and the death penalty does not exist for possession, use or sale - just for trafficking. Yes, the laws are draconian and punishments harsh but Singapore is actually a pretty chilled out place with a lot less crime than pretty much anywhere else and where it is very rare to see police on the street. Certainly less so than the UK or US. And much like everywhere else in the world drugs are there but not widely available. You just have to know the right people and be discrete - which is pretty much the case in Japan also. I don't touch drugs here - Jakarta is only an hours flight and much lower risk, but people do, and Singapore has a very small but dedicated credible music scene. Xhin is doubtless the biggest export of recent years.cloutier wrote:roland wrote:lol you've experienced singapore too? i went there from phuket and googled some facts about singapore earlier.. this fuckin dictatorship made me so paranoid i was running an hour through the whole airport to find the guy who was responsible for the "package wrapping" machine.. finally he turned it on for me and i payd for 3 turns.. my suitcase was so heavily wrapped in you couldn't even recognize it's color anymore..cloutier wrote:in a country like japan that has insane laws and punishments for drug use, its not exactly par for the course like it is in the rest of the world.
but its not nearly as crazy as singapore.
not that i have seen or touched anything there, but just the possibility someone could use me for drug trafficking made me crazy..
partying only in europe for me..
besides that i've read ace reviews about labyrinth, lineup, soundsystem, people.. they have a pretty sophisticated scene there!
i've never been to singapore, but two of my best friends have gone twice. you can get thrown in jail for chewing gum (illegal), and drug usage, possession, or sale is punishable by death.
as for japan...potentially some of the most up-for-it fans that are ravishingly mad for the music. they know damn near every record, and they party...hard. love playing out there.
