The Beijinger's Ten Year Anniversary Party: What to Wear

thebeijinger — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 12:00:00 +0800

So by now you're well aware of the biggest event of the year. You might even have won some tickets. "But what is the dress code?" we hear you asking. The following words will tell you everything that the picture of 'N Sync does not. To celebrate the last ten years, we want you to come dressed as them. (The years 2001-2011, not the boy band.)

We were thinking that it's about time to start reprising some of the fashions of recent yesteryear. Have a root around your wardrobes and dust off those trucker hats. Either that or you can get all conceptual and come as SARS or the Beijing Olympics.

Celebrate With Us: The Beijinger's 10th Anniversary Party This Saturday

thebeijinger — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 12:00:00 +0800

Dear Beijingers,

We’re turning ten this month, and we want you to come and celebrate with us.

Our big birthday bash will take place this Saturday, October 15th. It’s going to be an absolute corker with some of the best of Beijing’s bands and performers offering us a unique take on the last decade.

Obviously, the party is not one to be missed, but if you were thinking about skipping it, here are a couple of reasons not to: food and drink (not necessarily in that order). Yep, as ever we’re promising attendees more booze than anyone can possibly drink, plus soft drink options for those so inclined. There might even be a slice of cake and a goodie bag in it for you too. Read on for the full details.

Eat, Drink and be Merry: Beijing's Best Party Restaurants

thebeijinger — Wed, 06 Jul 2011 10:00:00 +0800

It’s no secret that bars (and clubs) are still a fairly new invention in Beijing. Until as recently as the mid-1990s, Hard Rock Cafe was about the only place in town where a mixed drink didn’t mean tea leaves and hot water. Beijingers have traditionally done their serious drinking in restaurants, and most still do.

Weekend Live Music Roundup: Yugong Yishan Sixth Anniversary, Creators Project, GBOB

kopde — Fri, 17 Sep 2010 12:08:00 +0800

I have heard this so many times from others: "I want to see more gigs, but always ended up at some club or party, because my friends like those." or something similar.
Who are those friends? OK, I have to admit it, I have them too. Sometimes, you would just miss a good gig like that. Hence I'm proud of myself that I resisted all other temptation and went to 2 Kolegas and Yugong Yishan last weekend and saw some young bands I wanted to see. A band which actually has been around for many years but has never been known by many people caught my attention at the GBOB: Residence A (A公馆). They handled their post-brit-rock style really well. Keep an eye on the GBOB, there could be more surprises.
