Concertgoers of all shapes and sizes descended upon Yun Feng theater last night to see Grammy award winning artist John Legend perform a tight, crisp set that displayed his famed musical chops as well as an unexpected showmanship that more than made up for Yun Feng's less than stellar setting.
Go here to follow the conversation or to join in! More details on the show here.
With all the buzz about Oasis not coming to Shanghai, we completely missed who actually is: soulful crooner John Legend. Emma Ticketmaster is bringing the Grammy Award winner (and star of many a Gap ad) to Shanghai Yunfeng Theater on April 8, assuming he didn't make any Tibetan independence related remarks too. Tickets are priced between 100 to 1000 RMB and can be bought on the Emma Ticketmaster site.
Or more like who won't be performing. We've already told you about Live Earth, Al Gore's 24-hour, 7-continent series of concerts on 7/7/07. Well, lists of performers at different venues (cities participating are: East Rutherford, New Jersey [near New York]; London; Rio de Janeiro; Maropeng [near Johannesburg]; Tokyo; Shanghai; and Sydney) are starting to be announced. First up, the US and the UK.
Shanghaiist asked its contributors (and a few "music people" in town) to list their five favorite albums released (or yet-to-be released) somewhere in the world in 2006. Got a list of your own? Submit your favorite 2006 music as a comment to this post. Enjoy!
