loads of things happening in Beijing lately, even during the holidays:
- Made it to Folk Me fest at Mao Livehouse (map) yesterday. Line up included an “unknown” trio, The Redbucks, Hanggai and Buyi. I wish they stuck to the band rotation they list outside because it’s sometimes difficult to know who is who unless you’ve seen them before. Great show overall with a review coming up soon.
- GAWTMY is still alive, kicking and searching for a new Rhythm Guitar player amongst others: Check this City Weekend add . Expect an interview with their drummer and the new singer soon.
- Bad Apples which had gone MIA over the summer marks their return to the Beijing music scene with a show on October 30th at Ginkgo(map)
- Talking about Ginkgo (map), they continue their schyzophrenic line up of acts with Shanghai’s Tony Tse Live this October 8th. I heard some good stuff about his shows!! will definitely try to make this one!
- Also, Lonely China Day, a local favorite, is playing 2 Kolegas (map) this Friday October 9th. I’ve seen those guys a few times and highly recommend their gigs, especially at 2kolegas while there is still moderately good weather to enjoy.
- Finally, The Redbucks are back with their full lineup October 12th at Jiang jin jiu bar (map).
Cheers and stay dazed

What once started as my personal ramblings has morphed into the number one collective resource about underground live music in Beijing and China. All bands, all music, all Rock n Roll, all the time with a little side of eclectic topics.. best of all, it's still as BIASED as ever
