A Beijing-based music and gig review blog

Where: 2 Kole­gas
When: Sat 23 June, 16:00
How Much: Free!
Who: Any­one you could pos­si­bly want? SUBS, Res­i­dence A, Amaz­ing Insur­ance Sales­men, Randy Abel Sta­ble, Nucleus… and every­one else! (More Info)
Why: This is a no-brainer, folks. This is daze­FEAST, hosted by my good friend Bei­jing Daze, and it’s going to be an epic after­noon and evening of friends, music, fun, and likely some great “daze punch”, if reports and pre­vi­ous expe­ri­ence are any­thing to go by. It’s where you’ve got to be, and the only place you should be on Sat­ur­day. Make a day of it and bring a pic­nic blan­ket you’re okay with leav­ing there overnight. It’s guar­an­teed to be fun. Best of all, it’s free! But of course, both BD and I encour­age the pur­chase of what­ever merch the bands bring on the day. Bring your bucks and not just for the booze!

Run­ners up this week are: tomor­row night, Fete de la Musique descends on Gulou! I have been too busy to update it all on the gig guide, but take a look at this awe­some map and lineup image and make your plan! It’s all free, so get some road beers and make a walk­ing tour of it. After Fete de la Musique and daze­FEAST, I can’t imag­ine what more you want. But if you need some­thing else, folk duo An & Qi Bin are play­ing Fri­day and Sat­ur­day at Mako Live­house, 8PM, 120RMB . And next Tues­day, Macanese post-rock group Why­Oceans is per­form­ing at Mao Live­house, 8PM, 50/40RMB.
