Last year they did a total of about three concerts (that I know of), one in Hangzhou.</p> http://shanghaiist.com/2006/02/10/top_floor_circu.php#comment-204723 http://shanghaiist.com/2006/02/10/top_floor_circu.php#comment-204723 Comments Fri, 10 Feb 2006 16:50:48 +0800 <p>Why do Shanghainese dislike foreigners? Don't they know foreigners are better than them?As a foreigner in Shanghai, if I asked the above questions, what purpose do you think it would serve?The answer, of course, is that such questions serve no purpose, other than to offend and anger others.Shanghaiist is a site dedicated to providing information and commentary about life in Shanghai. To that end, we welcome comments from the community that are constructive and informative--we believe that debate is beneficial and multiplicity of perspective essential to our site's growth and development.Comments that are deliberately inflammatory, such as those posted by Xiaose above, add nothing to the public discourse. Should your purpose be to spark a discussion about the classism that exists between Shanghainese and waidiren, I can think of a number of better ways to do so than the manner in which Xiaose has chosen to broach the subject.Similarly, if it was my desire to draw attention to the haughty attitudes that some foreigners direct toward Chinese nationals, there are more constructive ways to do so than the rheotrical questions that began this piece.In the future, should you wish to make similarly offensive or inflammatory comments, please think twice before doing so.Rarely will comments be edited for content, as Shanghaiist remains a strong proponent of free speech. Thank you for visiting our site!</p> http://shanghaiist.com/2006/02/10/top_floor_circu.php#comment-204722 http://shanghaiist.com/2006/02/10/top_floor_circu.php#comment-204722 Comments Fri, 10 Feb 2006 15:37:29 +0800 <p>Why do waidiren dislike Shanghainese?
