It seems this way of advertising is pretty popular. In 2006 I've seen a trio near to JR Gotanda station. It was really interesting at first sight. I posted a photo on my site. That girl played a saxophone... the Opening theme of Evangelion. :D Just like the others before my post. It seems this way of advertising is pretty popular.

If I had stayed around a bit longer maybe we would have bumped into each other. The store being advertised was a Pachinko Parlor.

OK. By the way, I passed this group on センター街 over the weekend, and there was also a guy playing a saxophone with the two women. They were advertising for a pachinko parlor.
