Description

To dispel any myths that sequels are just not as good as the original...we've invited Re-Tros to Part 2 to kick those myths right where it hurts. A little about Re-Tros...

"This is visceral music built from the bones up, think ubermench rather than Frankenstein's monster: beautiful, brilliant and brooding.

Drummer Ma Hui's rhythms still hold the echo of the earthquake that wiped his birth city off the map in 1976, while Liu Min's irresistible bass lines and staccato, strangely sensual yelps make you remember why you first fell in love with Blonde Redhead. Standing over it all, Hua Dong's shattering vocals and addictive open-fisted guitar stitch the flesh to the muscle like some demented monkey king. Even legendary composer/producer Brian Eno was so blown away he stood in on guest keyboards (we couldnt even make this stuff up, seriously). "

Supporting Re-Tros will be local sensation Banana Monkey. I don't think I need to introduce these boys but just in case...here's a little trivia anyways....they got voted best local band in Shanghai on Cityweekend, and will be hitting Hong Kong for a few shows and a photoshoot with Vogue. Bitchin'.

Whilst the goose bumps are still standing on your skin, R3 will take over the stage and play an original compositions set which he has been meticulously working away at. Somewhere between Trip Hop and Industrial, R3's original compositions will leave you suspended somewhere on the other side.

THEN it's buses to LOgO for an all night after party with Shanghai fave man behind the decks Mr. Tsang for an assault of bootylicious groovin thrust motion music and antics. Joining Mr Tsang will be STDJs alllll nighttttt long.

Of course drinks at Moganshan will be cheap (with prices t.b.a.) and to support the tragedies in China and Burma, all bar sales will be distributed to the children of Sichuan who have lost parents, door profits will be distributed to aid the needy in Burma. Yes, that's from both shows. 50rmb entry

Keep going right through to R3's original trip-hop and industrial set, then get on the bus and party at LOgO after the show with Shanghai's favorite man behind the decks Mr. Tsang for an assault of bootylicious groovin', thrust motion music and antics. Profits from drinks and the door will go to relief efforts in China and Burma. Want to get in free? See the CW "Deals & Prizes" section online to enter and win. RMB50
