We have got quite a week ahead of us here. The big name this week is Macy Gray, of course, who plays M1NT on Thursday. But we're more excited about the giant Maybe Mars contingent that seems to be descending upon the city this weekend. You can find all the details below, or check out our calendar for more! more ›

All the things you'd want to do this Monday through Thursday. On the schedule this week: Street parties on roofs, green wine, really weird electronic music from Japan (where else would it be from?), and USA 4th of July celebrations! more ›

Unfortunately, Shanghaiist didn't make it to the actual track meet, the main attraction of which was the 110m men's hurdles, where Liu Xiang narrowly beat out American Allen Johnson, clocking in at 13.07 to Johnson's 13.09. You can read about some of the other results here. We heard from someone who attended that the musical performers, which included Karen Mok, Lee Hom Wang, and Macy Gray, were lackluster. We didn't make it to the dinner afterwards either, but thanks to Aimee at Blue Frog we made it to the last stop of the night -- the post party, held at the Life Hub, a shopping/entertainment complex up on Gonghe Xin Lu, near Daning Lu in Zhabei District (yes, Zhabei District). Blue Frog catered the event (and is opening a new store in the area) where Liu Xiang was presented with an award and where the other athletes got a chance to drink, dance, and let off some steam. You can check out some of our pictures from the night above. more ›
