Awesome stuff of the weekend, described briefly.
In the interest of transparency, we present to you this week’s Editor’s Picks.
Where to go this weekend? Hmm…Thailand? Just kidding. I would never abandon this city’s hot blacktop for warm, luscious, sandy beaches. There’s music to be listened to, people! Listen!
The best of the best this weekend, as selected by your friendly but eccentric uncle Mike.
The weekend as we see it.
“What We Learned From…” will be a new feature promoting bands who have come to Shanghai in association with the Expo. Now that all of our great venues are intact and countries are bringing their musical talent here to share, we thought it appropriate to document that process, week by week, country by country. This week we were invaded by Finland.
One cool thing about the Expo so far is that different countries have been taking turns taking over the city, one week at a time. This week it’s Finland, but that’s not to say there isn’t local flavor going on at the same time.
Check out an interview with new band X is Y.
