Tonight's Tokyo Triple made Vin CYCLONE cry. Not from The TIVA's yearning to "Go Back Our Home," nor from Utada's gorgeous, melancholy, fervent wish for "One Last Kiss." Instead, CYCLONE was brought to tears -- and his knees -- by OTOBOKE BEAVER's incessant exclamation, "I hate you." Hey, a night time disc jockey takes his music to heart. But we know you'll enjoy tonight's slap and tickle featuring an eclectic group of Japanese artists.
The Tokyo Triple is a feature of Vin CYCLONE's night time cavalcade of subliminal messages, The POWER HOUR, heard exclusively on KLW the KILLERWATT. To hear the full program this episode of the Tokyo Triple was taken from, click here.

| Night time DJ Vin CYCLONE, 1977, during the Great Blackout; operating the temporary studio console assembled in KLW's generator powered transmitter building, Signal Hill, Brooklyn. |
Tonight, hear The Blackout Tapes, Part Two. In this episode, Bobby ROBERTO explains how he and Bob Grant had their privates "plaster-casted" one night at a party in LA. Plus, Chad goes out for a smoko with Vin, and it's not long before Mr. Rashmusher, (CEO of Conflamed Media Global, owner of the KILLERWATT,) makes it to the transmitter site after a mob looted and burned KLW's Manhattan studio -- all while Rashmusher was trying to take a leak in the studio's hidden executive bathroom! You can't make this stuff up! But it's all there on the aircheck tape recording of KLW, made on July 13, 1977, the "The Blackout of 1977." We're sending a copy to the Smithsonian!
Plus the Tokyo Triple! Three or more Japanese platters selected and introduced by CYCLONE himself.
Feel free to send POWER HOUR and Tokyo Triple requests: Vin CYCLONE.
Matane!
