Beijing is the center of the universe, so it seems. I'm excited to be part of it! Though we need more sun, more more sun.

Why Hummingbird band show did not show up at the Event page? (October 12th and 13th ) Would you kindly take care of the Hummingbird and make more people go and see their show?

"Remember when you were in college and you thought REM was better than the Beatles?"

No, but I remember when I was in college and I thought Michael Stipe looked like he was about 150 years old.

Hi Leemack. My name is Hyeji Jin and I am a summer intern working at OhmyNews International (http://english.ohmynews.com/). OhmyNews(http://www.ohmynews.com) is the premier online citizen journalism site in Korea and we are sending our citizen reporters to cover the Olympic Games in Beijing. It would be great if you and your community can participate in our efforts to learn more about the Beijing Games. We would appreciate any information and advice you have. If you are interested would you contact me through my email? ohmynewsolympics@gmail.com thanks!

White Rabbit is pretty much your only bet. China Doll 3.3 is a good option as well, but not sure if they've decided on a music policy yet. Klubb Rouge is pretty hous-y. Go to Gongti Xilu clubs for the utter hilarity of it.
