When All The Apes Came Together To Perform - WORLDWIDE APE HEADS SHOW

On December 14 of 1997, one of the most legendary music events took place: WORLDWIDE APEHEADS SHOW.

 
 

Held at the iconic venue that is no more, Akasaka Blitz, the show featured some of Japan's hottest musicians, all decked out in head-to-toe BAPE. Cornelius, Scha Dara Parr, UA, TOKYO No.1 SOUL SET, and Kan Takagi were amongst those to perform. 

 
 
 
 

There was also a Night Show, held on the same day at the renowned Shibuya club Harlem, who celebrated their 25th anniversary this year.

 
 

Produced by A Bathing Ape and NIGO, check out some of the images of the legendary event, shot by Ching & Kenny, designed by Mankey, from magazines in our archive.
