Hanoi’s first international music festival of note: 5 April 2008
<a The infamous Hanoi Minsk Club celebrates its 10-year anniversary this year and C.A.M.A. is helping it organise Hanoi’s first international music festival to mark the occasion on 5 April. Over 10 live acts will play the main stage, 5 of them imported from across the waters and DJs will be doing their thing all day long in the patented C.A.M.A. cocktail tent. The international lineup includes: Both Cheese (Japan), Stylish Nonsense (Thailand), WOW (Australia), Peabody (Australia), and James Harries (Czech Republic/ UK). The festival kicks off at midday sharp at the luxurious outdoor grounds of the American Club, 19 Hai Ba Trung and won’t stop till 11pm. After party? Why that’s a good idea.
Sadly, oh so sadly, I won’t make it. Even if I could get to Hanoi, you wouldn’t let me in. I don’t even have a bike anymore. Just worn shoes and a real hankering for freedeom, served on the rocks with a twist of danger.
Hi Giles – looks like things are coming together well. The whole of East Asia must be talking about this event – I heard Cyrillic rumblings in Bangkok from Russian mail-order celebrities that the party of the decade was happening and there is a scramble to get the last plane tickets out to Hanoi to storm the party at the Yankee embassy. Sorry I’m not going to be able to make it for the mayhem…
Did someone say afterparty?^^where?
would be Ouchhhh !
Giles – what is the name of the VN band that covered Skid Row’s 18 and Life? Do they play often?
Meritocrat says : I absolutely agree with this !
