|
APRIL 17 SONIC YOUTH WITH VOOREDOMS
OSAKA NAMBA HATCH TICKETS |
it may have been more like they were trying to plan a show in china, and either it fell through, or is still being worked out
|
Osaka is in Japan, Trasher. With the current political climate and hell-ass censorship in China I doubt there'll be a show there.
|
|
Why China? When will SY come to Lisboa again asks James Blonde.
|
why NOT china? i'm sure they'd rather play somewhere they have not played before... except Flywheel. they love that place.

That's what I think too. Censorship is totally crazy there. It would be the first SY gig in China, no? That'd be nice for people living there though. |
Censorship is a big problem,but we have great shows of Dirtythree&Lacrimosa last year.I Wonder if the show of SY have possibility.:rolleyes:
|
James Blonde wonders how many copies have SY sold in China.
|
taking into account how many people are there in China, maybe more than you think, James Blonde.
Hah, now it comes to my mind, when I was in Beijing in 2002 and saw this street gig of some local badass punk band sponsored by a huge mobile operator company. It was crazy, these absolutely trashy looking punks playing with big neon logo shining over their heads. China is weird. Beautiful though. |
James Blonde thinks about official and pirate copies. How big is the difference.
|
sonicat? are you from china?>?? I have few chineese==( how the hell you spell it) friends, asked them to bring me sonic youth cd from china (you know with them chinese alphabet and stuff on the cover). They couldnt find any, which is unbeliebvable to me. Is that possible? Or they just didn;t know where to go and buy it? sorry for my spelling, I'm bit drunk @ mo. lucky you europeans, who were in china!!!
|
U said ur friends can't find SY cds in China,it is impossible.Maybe they didn't find the right place.The music shop in the city have many collections,including puck,indie rock,post rock,hip-pop,etc.
I am in Beijing now,it's not beautiful and not weird .It's a normal city as other big morden cities.:cool: |
Quote:
It's funny, I went to Beijing cause my brother lives there, and I would describe it just the way slavo did : weird and beautiful. So where are good records shops in there? |
So many,but I can't describe the location exactly.It's hard to remeber the name of the street in China.:o

Quote:
strange. i wrote down sonic youth on piece of paper and nothing. by the way, are covers in english alphabet or in chineese alphabet? |
Quote:
Both.My friend have all the CDs of SY,but maybe covers in chinese alphabet are pirate copies.:( |
Quote:
It's higly probable! they sell so many copies of cds and dvds there... |
China is a great place to stay.

chinoise
hey we're supposed to have shows in beijing and shanghai right after Japan--!
i think it's gonna happen!! LR |
Quote:
Wow! Great news! So the shows are bound to happen! My brother told me he read an article about that in a chinese magazine. That would make a lot of people very happy!!! |
Quote:
That's great!! |
Hey Mr. Lee how about Southamerica?
|
Is Singapore part of China?

SONIC YOUTH IN CHINA
Sonic Youth have booked their first two shows ever in China. April 23 SY is in Beijing at The Star Live and April 24 in Shanghai at the Paramount. Both shows are still subject to PRC Ministry of Culture approval. Ticket information will be here as soon as we have it. |
Really?
Wow, this is great news! I know some people that have been waiting for this for a long time...
Quote:
The Paramount is a historic Art-Deco Era facility with an honest-to-goodness ballroom dance floor and two floors converted into a discotheque that, as far as I know, doesn't do rock acts. Are you sure this is the correct venue for Shanghai? The last show that promoters Split did in Shanghai was at 4Live... In any case, /please/ consider doing an after-hours show at Yuyintang. They are the place to go to for local indie rock with a local crowd, if a little small. The Dirty Three did a small show there the night that they performed in Shanghai. http://yuyintang.com/ In any case, I tentatively added this to Upcoming.org. http://upcoming.org/event/155116 |
Quote:
It is not the correct venue! Split are doing the show at the Shanghai Concert Hall. The Paramount was an early option discussed with the band. I think they maybe were a bit too excited to announce it on the website! Gonna be a great show no matter where it is... |
Quote:
Thanks for confirming. This is exciting. |
well,its cool.im in nantong,kinda near shanghai.
i don't think the shanghai concert hall is the appropriate place for a rock show,either.it seems to be fir a serious classic music performance. yes,i heard the show about dirty three in 育音堂,its an additional show ,right?because the former show,which was held in 云峰剧院 had a little bit problem in the end. well,i gave an email to steve last night,anyway,asking about the venues or something.his reply was kinda amazing:"aside all of this,aren't you happy that sy is coming to china?" yes,we are just so happy.i will try my best to see the show though i will have classes that day...maybe drop out some classes then... china is waiting for you! 楼上的,交个朋友?我的msn:lisa_v509@hotmail.com |
Here I Comes, Welcom Sy To China!
Lisa :-) |
Wow, we have a lot of Chinese on the board - Hi! I'm really pleased for you that you're all so excited about these concerts, I hope you have a great time.
|
its great news but i am wondering where they will play and how they will be received?
|
Quote:
If it's designed for "serious classical music" then surely the acoustics for serious noise music will be brilliant? |
Quote:
hey you:D |
they have two shows scheduled , hopefully the chinese allow it
|
Quote:
no,they are two countrys and with 3000 miles between them. But however there're lot of Chinese in singapore, they got same ancestor.:) |
china has the best pop punk bands in the world.
|
I'm now in Shanghai &i'm so excited about the coming show
I love SY~haha |
