With Beijing tickets priced at 380RMB (US$50) sadly the audience will be made up of expats and the new rich who have no interest in the music but will go to be seen. Local kids who would love to see the likes of Sonic Youth live will not possibly be able to afford that - it is about a week's salary for your average Beijinger! Pointless Sonic Youth coming if they can't put on a gig for the kids.
