There are mad dreads in Japan. More than I've seen in most big cities here in the US. In fact, I just happened to be there on business, and the largest reggae concert I've ever seen (stadium filled to capacity) was in effect. Funny thing was, the artist were people who aren't even appreciated over here in america. It's funny how it takes another people rockin' our culture (music, fashion, etc..) to remind us about our own thang! BIG UP Toshi! <P>A LOK
