2pi festival 07, hangzhou, 25 November

This festival almost didn't happen this year. Only a couple weeks before was the information released and the festival was confirmed.

I booked my flight and flew out to Shanghai a few days later and then bussed to Hangzhou not more than 2 hours away. I was not about to miss it again this year.entering the room with Torturing Nurse - Shanghai's makers of Noishanghai. She nominally prefers to perform naked with candles in her ass.

Walnut Room (beijing). combination of two saxophone and guitar musicans. free jazz sax + ravaged guitar. one of my personal highlights.

solo set by member of local noise band D!O!D!OD!O! though laptop performances are never the most thrilling, this performance was short sweet and dynamic in sound.
This is a band called 10, a Japanese/Korean duo. They came to Hangzhou with no money to return. With no knowledge of Chinese and minimal knowledge of English, they hope to hangout until they find the cash to go home. how punk.


more to come soon..
