    well, I guess this might be one of the worst kept secrets in Beijing folks but it’s time to make this baby official:

    When I set out to organize ‘dazeFEAST last year in June, I had absolutely no idea it turn into a gigantic party with over 800 people showing up at 2 Kolegas on a sunny June afternoon. I also had no idea that Beijing would grace us with such a beautiful day considering that the previous Thursday, the city was flooded beyond belief with cars literally floating about the streets. ‘dazeFEAST was so mind-blowing that i figured it best to just make it a one off and keep the memories.
    As the months went by and people asked, my answer stayed the same: No Way… It Ain’t gonna be the same…. too mafan…
    An then I thought better of it… ‘dazeFEAST was about celebration, friends, music, good times and just partying it out with my music buddies in my favorite venue in town! It’s got no standards to live-up to and as long as myself and the musicians are there, we have enough people to drink the bar empty! So guess what folks? for the third year anniversary of the blog
