ok, so Beijing punk band DEMERIT are due to play on the the 28th june, the show was originaly being held @ Sammi's Kitchen, but due to too many people drinking outside @ the last few shows & lack of bar profits i dont feel i can hold shows @ this venue anymore. The mighty Dean from El Destroyo was being a HUGE help @ the last few shows but it just hasnt been worth while so he too has decided Sammi kitchen just cant work.
for future shows i would have to give $30 from each ticket to the venue which just wouldnt leave me with enough money to hire equipment, let alone make it worth while Demerit coming all the way from Beijing.
the show should still go ahead, i should hopefully be able to post a new venue just keep checking!
i was REALLY disapointed by the turn out for THE LAST CHOICE / NO NAME gig this weekend, 2 amazing punk bands from china & the turn out was piss poor. everyone that did come had an awesome time, i think i can honestly say it was hong kong's first TRUE punk gig! all the weekend punk's (people who dress up for the weekend & listen to blink) proved what frauds they really are, you guys suck!

AWESOME PUNK BAND FROM MAINLAND CHINA!
