If you aren't fresh off the boat or a WOW hermit that never leaves the safety of his computer for fear of what a real life might mean, then you should be familiar with the Get in the Van parties. With free REEB, free bus rides between venues and a sh*t load of great music this is the highlight of the week.
This, the 3rd installment, is co-headlined by two hot Beijing bands, the Gar and 24 hours, who will be performing at the Dream Factory with Banana Monkey and Rogue Transmission.....and wait......there is more.
After a mosh and sweat fest at the Factory, everyone will jump on the free buses, with free beer, and head to Yuyintang where Boys Climbing Ropes and DJ Sacco will finish off the night. All this for 60rmb means any of you stupid enough not to show up should be slapped upside the head for botting through life.
