Back From Ensiferum’s Shanghai Gig

By Vincent from www.englishvincent.com

We went to Ensiferum’s Shanghai live last night. Ensiferum’s a Finnish melodic death me<fix>tal band. they are regarded as one of the three finest me<fix>tal bands in Finland. There were a long long line when i got to there. my friend took a u-turn in order to find a parking space…we didn’t find one, so he could only park his car under the railroad. a lot of people are waiting outside the bar. i got a bad feeling that those people were gonna ruin the night.

i found the place was crammed with fans when we got in. we were packed like sardines there. when the show began, we tried to bounce around and do headbanging as we did before…but every time when we tried to jump off the ground, we were dragged down by other sardines…damn…we really wanted to blow off steam…and vent our depression. my friend river almost got suffocated there…some dudes started yelling: turn off the fucking air conditioner!!!!there were like 10 people in one squre meter!!!! i sweated a lot and wanted to get a beer at the bar.but i totally got stuck in the "people-mountain-people-sea"….

i’ve got to say the band was really good. .but the sponsor 育音堂 just wanted to make money by selling as many tickets as they could….they didn’t even think about us. they stole the moshing part of the show. a moshingless me<fix>tal concert is not really a me<fix>tal concert. now i know how mercenary motive ruins the art.

A Few Photos of Mine

Well. Me and a few friends of mine went to Jiuxi in the morning for BBQ. Afterwards, some of us went mountain climbing. Jake snapped for me at a temple on the mountain top overlooking Qiantang River. I never get this photogenic after I lost like 10 catties when I was a sophomore. Hopefully I don’t look like a nerd. Cheers!

MUMA & THIRD PARTY SUMMER GIG IN HANGZHOU

By Vincent

Me and Foggy went to Muma and & Third Party’s summer gig in the Traveller Bar on July 28. Muma is easily the most badass Chinese rock band ever. Last yaer, Me and two friends of mine went to 4live bar in Shanghai for their live in celerbaton of their release of the new album ‘Velvet Road’. （I don’t know, I tend to come up with intolerably long sentences like this. It’s a curse and I seriously cannot do nothing about it) it was so impressed back then. They are absolutely groovy.

When we got to there, it was totaly ‘people-mountain-people-sea’. Stylish hotties were everywhere. They are gainning popularity these years. Good for them, but bad for us: Their new album stinks like shithole:(. I elbowed my way to a girl busy collecting money. She stamped our arms like we are two pieces of pork after we handed over RMB, then we stepped in, and there were 4 guys tuning the instruments. These guys would be the warm-up band for Muma, and they can suck a cock. Totally clueless how to rock.

The first song was my favourite: ‘I lost her’. Dudes! I can listen to this shit for four hours in a row. It’s the best of its kind. I got so excited listening to it just in front of the guy who composes it.

Enough talk. Let’s just see how they ruled that sunday afternoon.
