"Allah didn't touch Iraq"? Looks like Google Translate needs some Shanghainese vocabulary lessons....

"Dalian-based Triple Smash will be playing at YYT" This should be Dalian-based Wang Wen. Shanghai-based Triple Smash are opening....

The picture in the post says their shots are 30ml, which is small. A 250ml bottle is also small. So they're selling tiny bottles for the same relative price as tiny shots....

"15 kaui for a shot doesn't sound bad, but sounds out of whack with 125 kuai for a 250mL bottle, was that a typo?" Sounds like you need a remedial math class. 15rmb/30mL = .5rmb/mL 125rmb/250mL = .5...

"From the video, it appears to be a Buick showroom but we aren't sure exactly what make the car is." Yes, from the giant Buick logo in the background it certainly does appear to be a Buick showroom, ...

I take back what I said ... the Molds rock....

Ouch... Yeah, Ourselves Beside Me also sucked, but I didn't know until after I'd already paid to get in. Fortunately, the Scoff also played, and I really liked their new psychedelic Doors kind of soun...

I wouldn't call the Molds a new band -- they've been playing in Beijing for at least six months. I saw them at D-22 a couple months ago opening for Ourselves Beside Me and they sucked....

Working in a bar in Shanghai I expect to be losing my livelihood every day. I need a better facebook picture......
