The end of this post has a blog policy announcement so go read all the way please.
First up, check that flyer. That's right Moon Tyrant, fresh off the Mongolia tour, are heading up a show at Yuyintang, where you will be able to hear them clearly. Shanghai hardcore/metalcore stalwarts Loudspeaker provide the support and Fearless will do an acoustic set.
And at 25 RMB that's a huge bowl of awesome.
Talking of shows, I'll be at the Trash-a-go-go feat. Duck Fight Goose show tonight ... which comes with the news that it will be The Beat Bandit's last show. Check out the full story here at SH24-7. With the Instigation's future in doubt too, and newer bands just getting off the blocks, the Trash people are in trouble. They don't just promote shows, they specifically want to foster garage style music in Shanghai.
So - if you play and want to get a garage band together, get on that and go see those guys.
And finally. The blog stuff. I just had to make an edit to a post by request - something I'm always happy to do - but it was ridiculous and I want to clear up a few things. Let's start with the facts so far.
*In over three years of the blog I have never posted up stuff against anyone's will, have always honoured requests for secrecy/non-reporting and have always dealt with accidents promptly and with minimum fuss.
*In case of concern, there is a blog e-mail (in the about page) where anyone can drop me a quick mail or request - themselves. I answer all of them promptly.
It's easy. And the implication of this:
*There is absolutely no need or justification for anyone, in general, to make dick-ish comments to me on this subject.
*There is absolutely NO REASON why anyone should be making emergency calls to me at hours where I may be sleeping about it.
*Drop me a mail and, AS USUAL, any requests will be honoured with minimum fuss.
And finally. If the problem comes from a third party and you yourself don't see a problem - then perhaps you should talk to them, not me.
