I got a chance to interview Japanese punk-pop band Ketchup Mania a few minutes ago at Studio SX here at South By Southwest. They were a lot of fun and incredibly gracious. Dai (guitar) expounded on his favorite American beers and Hiro (lead vocals) talked about their unique sense of fashion inspired by the Harajuku district in Tokyo.

Dai, Me, and Hiro speak the universal language of rock!
(Note: Big thanks to Dave and George of JapanFiles who provided translation and helpful band info).
