Unfortunately just at the end of last week we received some sad news. After The last 2 years covering the Rugby Sevens in Hong Kong we were rejected press access to the event. Don't worry as a number of you have asked, we will still be there but have not been recognised as press.

Two long time supporters of Child Welfare Scheme have kindly donated their tickets to the Hong Kong World Cup Rugby 7's held this coming weekend - 18th March - 20th March.
Each ticket is valued at HK$1,000.

R.E.M. on Tour Live in HK
R.E.M. CONFIRMS MARCH DATE IN HONG KONG
THEIR ONE AND ONLY SHOW IN SOUTH-EAST ASIA
Lushington Limited is proud to announce the arrival of R.E.M. in Hong Kong on 20th March for their one and only show in South-East Asia as part of their world tour in 2005. Tickets are priced at HK$388, HK$488, HK$688 and HK$888 and will go on sale on the 16th December 2004 at all HK Ticketing and Tom Lee outlets.
R.E.M. - Michael Stipe, Peter Buck and Mike Mills - will perform hits spanning their twenty five year career consisting of anthemic ballads and rock tracks, alongside songs from their new album Around The Sun.
Formed in 1980 in Athens, Georgia, R.E.M. emerged with a unique combination of rock, underground garage rock and folk, and intelligent, post punk coupled with Michael Stipe's poetic, sometimes oblique lyrics. Their full length debut album Murmur was voted Rolling Stone's best album of 1983, beating Michael Jackson Thriller. Landmark albums followed like Out of Time which launched hits such as Losing My Religion and Shiny Happy People and the album Automatic For the People which produced the anthemic ballads Man On The Moon, and Everybody Hurts.
Their disparate influences combined to create music that has inspired countless alt-rock bands from Radiohead to Nirvana, from The White Stripes to Travis, and earned the band accolades as the Greatest Band in the World and the Most Important Rock Band on the Planet. Music critics hold them responsible for shaping the entire American alternative rock scene as we know it.
With over 52 millions albums sales worldwide, R.E.M. continues to push the boundaries on their thirteenth career album Around The Sun, presenting music with an immediacy and intensity that stands with the band's most solid and assured work. With their lush guitars, poetic lyrics and Stipe's remarkable voice, the album has sold in excess of 1.7million copies worldwide and attained gold status in Hong Kong.
This follows the success of their greatest hits album In Time: The Best of R.E.M. 1988-2003 released last year, which achieved platinum status in Hong Kong, and sold over 4 million albums worldwide.
Don't miss the musical mastery of R.E.M. in this one night only extravaganza at Hong Kong Exhibition and Convention centre on the 20th March 2005.

The notorious area of the stadium where the Rugby Sevens takes place has seen some crazy and drunked activities over the years. One of the best outdoor parties during the day and the early evening, we just have to be there each year.
We go over some of the things that we have seen there and some personal tips of our own so that you have a great time at the stadium, don't get lost or end up in some new area of Hong Kong that you have never seen before at 5am!

Kris Lopez from the label Defected will be in Hong Kong this April at 1/5.
Check out some quality house music flying in from the UK. Make no mistake Kris Lopez will be one of the few up and coming DJ/Producers who will be in the front line of maintaining and rebuilding the house scene for the future.
Having done so much for a 21 year old the only way forward is the skies. With a huge and hyperactive personality it's no wonder clubbers/promoters and so many people buy into the madness while jamming to Kris' music.

Just to let everyone know that Chingy live in Hong Kong has been cancelled until further notice.
Watch out for more big hip hop parties in the pipeline in April and May.

We are giving away 10 guestlist places (5 pairs) to Volar on the 11th March to see DJ Ulysses from New York and 4 guestlist (2 pairs) to see Westbam from Germany on the 18th March, well known for organising the Berlin Love Parade.
Just click red more to find out how to enter.
Organised by the SoHo Alliance, anyone visiting any of the hot SoHo Alliance 28 outlets between now and the 15th March can enter to win World Cup Sevens tickets!
