Time Killer...Al D TV

Al Di is a crazy nice Beijing dude who spent a few years in Vancouver studying for a degree in music management. While there he gained a cult following doing a series off-the-wall interviews with a lot of interesting bands passing through the city. We were lucky enough to meet Al Di in Beijing during the You Say Party! We Say Die! tour and now that he is back in China we hope he starts up those funny interviews again. Check them out at Al D TV or on youtube. As a side note, we hear that a few of the bands in his interviews might be making it to our side of the Pacific in the near future.
