Don't Forget: Electro Grass this Saturday

Jun 19th, 09 Nightlife by Morgan Short 0

Just reminding you that the Electro Grass thing scheduled for this Saturday is still on. There's been some twitter doubt. Don't worry, bro.

Here's the event listings and here's a longer wire post about it.

Address is 7 Donghu (not 70 like on some flyers) and that’s right at the corner with Huaihai Lu.

New Pictures: Movie Stars and Such

Jun 19th, 09 Nightlife by Morgan Short 0

New Pictures are up of some sort of SIFF function at M1NT . Click here to star gaze.

I hope that someone there pulled Clive Owen aside and went "Children of Men? Good one, Clive. Liked it."

And a special wazzzup to Quincy Jones, who appears to still be two-fisting it at the banquet of life after all these years. Nobody does it like you, Q.

And the Horse You Rode in On: Best and Worst Flyer

Couldn't wait until the end of the year to call special attention to this gem.

Hats off to the Acid Pony Boys. If a bestiality orgy doesn't get people to your parties, I don't know what will.

Jinshan Calling: Crazy Summer Beach Party

Jun 18th, 09 Community by Morgan Short 0

As you might have heard by now an outdoor music festival is taking place in Jinshan from July 17-19 (that's Friday, Saturday, Sunday). Jinshan is about an hour from Shanghai by bus on the coast. The Crazy Summer Beach Festival runs from 2pm to 2am on all three days and there's two stages of DJs and bands.

They've arranged the music on each day loosely according to genre. Day 1 is "China Rock Power", Day 2 is Electronic and Hip Hop, and Day 3 is "Original Pop Stars". On their main stage it's more established acts, and on their second stage is more "underground" acts. That's the idea anyways. Music starts at 6pm on each day.

Here's the lineup (subject to changes I would imagine):

Sandwiches on the Move

Jun 17th, 09 Dining by Christopher St Cavish 0

City Deli has moved. This is big news because.... Well, it's good news. City Deli makes Shanghai's best sandwiches. The crusty Turkey & Avocado is a favorite. They make real lemonade and give a whole, stubby pickle with every order. Their sandwiches are not cheap, but they are the best.

Until about a month ago, they did all of this while hidden behind a tattered couch in the attic of an abandoned lanehouse. Toasting bread, fighting off developers, stealing electricity to run the deli-slicer. Or something just as mysterious. They've been going for a couple of years, but never had a shop or an address, which was real frustrating when they turned delivery over to Sherpa's at 3pm. There was no takeout, even if there was an added allure in their BLT because of it.

Now, they've come to the surface and taken a sixth-floor spot in the Golden Eagle Plaza. That's the one just off Nanjing Lu, on Shaanxi Bei Lu, that is half-Gucci. Gucci has FIVE floors there. Sixth-floor? Roast beef. They're still working out the kinks of the new place -- there's an abbreviated menu for the next couple of weeks -- but it's already promising. They've added a banh mi with housemade pickled daikon and carrots to the menu, and gotten themselves a sandwich press for the Cuban. One of the owners is Vietnamese. I'm expecting the banh mi to be quite nice. Order a sammich this month and lemonade or iced tea is free. And they've expanded their non-Sherpa's delivery hours to Mon-Fri, 11am-8.30pm. Good news, all around. Website and menu here.

Nosaj Thing Workshop @ The Factory

Jun 17th, 09 Nightlife by Morgan Short 0

LA-based knob-twiddler Nosaj Thing will be doing an electronic music workshop this Saturday at The Factory. If you're an aspiring producer, or even if you just want to see how all that stuff works, make sure you head down.

Come with questions prepared (i.e. "Hi Nosaj. I'm using Abelton. How can I make my bass lines more sticky icky?").

There's no cover for that and it runs from 3pm until 4:30pm. Nosaj Thing performs this Friday at Yuyintang. Here's the event info for that.

Here's a remix he did of a Radiohead track. Cool cool. Rick click, "save link as…"

frangipani on Casanova on Wed 10

"Scrumptious Pasta!"

One of those Shanghai paradoxes is why Italian restaurants serve mundane dried pasta when the heavenly fresh variety should be easily doable here. You can get fresh noodles in any Shanghai market for a few mao, and presumably training staff to create Italian noodles the same way shouldn't be too difficult. Casanova does - serve fresh pasta - and it is amazing. I had their tagliatelle dish, with scallops, artichokes, mint and nice, crunchy pine nuts, and it was absolute heaven. The texture of freshly made pasta - ooh la la. Silken! My date had the ravioli (ravioli with an aprodisical stuffing of lobster and prawns) which was downright decadent. It's a very romantic restaurant, Casanova - there are three rooms, which makes it feel intimate - and a very Euro sensibility. Could be the gue [..read on]
