In case you missed out on the third edition of Shanghai bus-and-beer-fest Get in the Van back in April, Spin correspondent mrjaymark has now put up a fun video documenting the event. Playing that night were The Dropkicks, The Rogue Transmission, Boys Climbing Ropes, 24 Hours and The Gar. See full report here.
Update: Oops! Sorry, just realised that Torturing Nurse show is on Saturday not Sunday!
With the Olympics winding down, the underground gigs seem to be finally picking up. We still aren't sure what is going on at Yuyintang, their webpage isn't loading and the message they were sending out on Facebook was vague on when they were planning to re-open. Yesterday we text-messaged them regarding The Gar, who were scheduled to play tonight and YYT confirmed the gig was still on. Shanghaiist plans on showing up tonight, but with all the uncertainty we might be the only ones. Also, tonight at Live Bar they are going back to the blues with Plastic Shell and more.
This week in Shanghaiist
