Abe Sada completed a one week tour of Japan in May 2009.

They started with a performance at Club Dada on Thursday 22nd May, at the Castle Hotel in Perth, entitled AmpStack  – all the bass amps, guitars and luggage were stacked up in a pile and left to feedback, with some interjection by members between beers. It was then into a taxi and off the the airport to Japan.
