Jaunty Performing at Frozen Yogurt Party

mayamada April 1, 2013 No Comments

We’re now just a couple of weeks away from the Frozen Yogurt Party and so far, you’ve heard about the frozen yogurt.  You’ve heard about the pop up shop.  You’ve heard about the video game tournaments and even the Giant Jenga.

What else is there to talk about right?

Wrong.  We’re proud to reveal that London hip-hop artist Jaunty will be performing live at the Frozen Yogurt Party!

Jaunty has been an early supporter of mayamada and can be seen sporting their Samurai Chef tee in a recent video.

You can also pick up his EP on the night.  All this is on top of  a live DJ at the event, who will be providing a great music all throughout the event.

Jaunty will be performing from 9pm so make sure you grab a seat or any space going in what is sure to be a packed Saturday evening at Tutti Frutti.

mayamada March 26, 2012 No Comments

This weekend will see our second Anime Showtime event at Whirled Art Cinema where you’re invited to a free anime screening and get access to our one time pop up shop.

The date to put in your diaries is Sunday the 1st of April. We’ll be there and showing Steamboy: A steam punk anime set in 17th century Britain from Katsuhiro Ohtomo who also brought us Akira.

There are still a few tickets available (at least when this post was made), so be quick if you want to book your spot.

Here’s a run down of what we’ll be up to on the day.

 

Prizes

We’re going to kick things off by giving everyone a chance to take part in our competition to win a special prize.

Popcorn

Judging from the talk on our Facebook page, mixing sweet and salted popcorn is popular. Well, we’ll have both kinds available for you guys before the film starts.

Steamboy

Once everyone has their popcorn we’ll kick off the main event. There’ll be a short break in between the film before we continue.

Popup shop

We’ll have a one time popup shop featuring all the mayamada t-shirts from the gift shop available for a discounted price. We’ll also have the Word Salad tee in white which you can’t get on the website.

 

 

We’ll be back next week to give you all the travel information so you know the best way to get to the screening.

 

Stay Tuned.

 

McDonald’s on the Runway

While I was on YouTube doing some hard “researching”, I came across these two Japanese ads for McDonald’s.  There old, but funny…in a strange “how did you manage to make the Ronald McDonald outfit fashionable” kind of way.

It did get me thinking though.  What if you did a whole runway show with the McDonald’s cast at their fashionable best?  Hamburglar and those slimming stripes.  Mayor McCheese does have quite a regal style…The Grimace is a lost cause though.
