*******************************
It's that time again! We're getting to know some of our fave Tokyo people. So far we've chatted to bands and DJs, but now its time to get a little more personal - meet the Tokyo Star bar-ladies!
The Bar-Lady Questionaire
What’s your fave Tokyo drink?
Jo – Just add vodka
Kate – If it’s for free, it’s for me, I’ll take three!
Robyn – Jagerbombs all the way!
Gabi – Free soco shoots from our fave regular Keith!
What’s the lamest pick-up line you’ve ever heard at Tokyo?
Jo – “I have your name tattooed on my wrist” and then the idiot proceeds to show me his wrist where the words “Your name” have been written.
Kate – “I totally beat up the bouncers at TranceSky AND I make R1 million a month at the massage parlour I own.”
Robyn – “Like, how many times do you get hit on in a night..?”
Gabi – I asked one guy if he wanted a single or double in his drink and he replied, “I’m single, but I’ll have a double.”
What preparation do you do for an evening working at Tokyo?
Jo – I put on some funky badges cause they help make good tips.
Kate – I always practise the robot in the mirror and then try not to be sleeping when my shift starts!
Robyn – EAT!!
Gabi – Buy cigarettes cause the machine doesn’t sell my brand…
If you were an animal which one would you be, and why?
Jo – Monkey, cause I’m supple and flexible and imagine what I can do for the boy monkeys!
Kate – Moose, cause I’m as quiet as a mouse and like to sit in the fridge and eat chocolate mousse!
Robyn – Bunny, cause I like bouncing and the idea of floppy ears…
Gabi – Cat, cause I’m selective about being nice, affectionate and polite to customers (and it usually depends on how nice they are to me!)
What makes you YOU?
Jo – I’m cute and fun, always keen for a chat and love wearing funky clothes (and badges!)
Kate – I’m tall cause I was made on a long weekend…
Robyn – I’m a very social being, who loves the party!
Gabi –
What do you look for in a man?
Jo – Justin
Kate – Three M’s of manhood – mullet, moustache and a moonbag
Robyn – Anything but the creepy janitor type
Gabi – Too much…
I don’t leave the house without:
Jo – funky badges (donations welcome by the way!)
Kate – random gifts for all my lovely bar-lady friends..
Robyn – my camera
Gabi – clean underwear
What’s your fave thing about Tokyo Star?
Jo – Levi
Kate – Thursday nights
Robyn – slush
Gabi – good conversation (walking into Tokyo is like walking into an episode of Cheers!)
What would you bring back from the past?
Jo – high fives
Kate – silkworms in a shoebox
Robyn – imaginary friends (haha!)
Gabi – penguin biscuits (does anyone remember these?)
What’s the strangest thing that’s ever happened to you at Tokyo?
Jo, Kate, Robyn – One quiet Tuesday night a white guy came walking into Tokyo dressed as a Zulu warrior! He serenaded us with some traditional African songs before selling us his CD…What a night!
Gabi – A guy once started stripping to try raise some money to pay for his drinks!
What do you do when you’re not working?
Jo – sleep and exercise
Kate – teach nursery school
Robyn – sleep and eat (and sometimes go to varsity)
Gabi – come to Tokyo!
What do you want to be when you grow up?
Jo – archaeologist/Indiana Jones
Kate – pirate/work for Koo cause I can!
Robyn – be the boss of everyone – hehe!
Gabi – Oscar-winning actress
What’s the most pissy thing a customer can do?
Jo – Click or whistle at us to get our attention – we’re not dogs!
Kate – Have no manners!
Robyn – Be rude or reach over the bar to grab at us/the alcohol…
Gabi – Wink at us.
