Deann from the Sugizo Street Team sent in the following:

There is going to be an autograph session and a short Q&A the afternoon of the show (Tues. 9/23) at the Kinokuniya Book Store in Japantown 3:30-5:00pm. Because the [show] venue (The Independent) is over 21, this is a great opportunity for the under 21 to get to meet this amazing musician. There should be merchandise available for purchase and signing at the bookstore. What it is, I’m not sure, but it should be fairly exclusive stuff.

Location: Kinokuniya Book Store, San Francisco Japantown [View Map]

The highlight destination for many anime and manga fans especially those visiting the city, Kinokuniya Book Store is the best place to find Japanese books and magazines. They also sell a selection of movies, music, clothing, trinkets, toys, and anime goods (including calendars).

The Japantown store was recently remodeled with the addition of a brand new downstairs shop dedicated to manga in both English and Japanese.

There are two branches in the Bay, one located in San Francisco Japantown and the other in San Jose (Kinokuniya is a large chain bookstore with locations all over Japan, but there are only six branches in the entire United States).
