YACHT cancels beijing gig!

September 30, 2007

Bad news for us Beijing folks, but it’s just been announced that Jona Bechtolt will in fact NOT be performing this week at Yugon Yishan. The show was slated for Tuesday, October 2nd and apparently cancelled because Mr. Yacht mistakenly booked a flight into China that wouldn’t arrive until a few hours after his show was set to start. What? In any case, those pesky international date lines can be hard to decipher at times, so maybe we’ll have to be a bit more lenient about the mix up. In any case, the word on the street is that if you show up for the gig anyways, there’ll be a free Yacht CD waiting for your pretty little hands.

In Shanghai news, YACHT’s performance slated for October 5th at the Yue Festival is still very much happening, and there will possibly be a later show on the 6th at Logo. Keep your eyes peeled for imprompto Yacht shows around Shanghai, I’m sure something will come up!

While us lowly Beijingren aren’t going to be so lucky as to pay ludicrous prices to see Beyonce Knowles, Shanghai-ers sure will be, and at the ever impressive Shanghai Grand Stage, no less. The show is slated for Monday, November 5th, and tickets will be available online within the week and can be bought from 180rmb – 1880rmb. You can read all the dirty details with an exclusive interview given by Miss Fancy Pants herself in the City Weekend National Edition, out on stands the first week of November. Come on, I know you want it.
