We jumped on the chance to hit the first PAUSE party of 2009 this last weekend, a non-profit art event organized by the dedicated music mavens of Shanghai - Phreaktion, Antidote, Uprooted Sunshine, Eklektik, and their friends. We shook our booties to electronica, dubstep, electro-grunge and Tibetan reggae, and got delightfully drunk off one of the best drink specials you'll find on the Bund. Can anyone think of a better way to spend a Sunday, rainy or no?

The Captain's Hostel isn't just a place for enjoying Bund-like views with (relatively) cheap beers or for picking up tourists, oh no. This Sunday they're hosting the always brilliant PAUSE. These free, non-profit collaborative events with the cream of the city's creative talent have been running since 2005 and are always unmissable. This Sunday's is no different.

Or where we’re going after we’ve seen Hedgehog live that is. As Shanghaiist told you yesterday, one of Beijing’s best bands will be hitting Yu Yin Tang tonight as part of their China tour and they are well worth checking out (not least for a chance to see possibly the world’s smallest drummer, Atom, who also used to be in Hang on the Box). Not only that, but Hedgehog will be supported by one of Shanghai's finest bands, Hardqueen.
