Oct 1-5, 2008 This year’s Midi Festival saw Beijing’s biggest outdoor music festival return home as the stripped back event took place at the remote Midi School. Only hard-core fans made it to the festival that ran from Oct 1 to Oct 5. Compared to the 5 stages and 23 foreign bands of last year, this year offered a more limited selection. But there was still plenty of good bands taking part including, Monokino, Lord of Mushrooms, Useless ID CMCB, The Verse and Brain Failure.
