If You See Just One Show This Weekend… (Dec. 19-21) — Can’t Do Nothing for You Man
Posted by: mark ˑ December 19, 2008 – 2:52 amWow, there is a lot going on this weekend. So much so that I think I cannot recommend any one show this weekend. Sorry, you’ll have to fend for yourself.
But if you have not seen I&I Djangdan yet, they will be playing at 500 (which I need to add to my map some time… very good bar).
FF and Club Catch have the biggest shows, with way more bands than you can shake a stick at (sorry, but at 3am on Friday night, you get cliches).
Kingston Rudieska is always fun. Orgentanz, too.
And the scary thing is next week will be even busier. As I have said before, year-end is a mammothly busy time in Korea. Everyone has their year-end office party. And all the clubs and bands similarly are celebrating the end of the year. So many gigs happening for the next couple of months.
Sorry I do not have more concrete things to say at this time. Except to point out to any Korea newbies who might be at this website that Christmas Eve in Korea is not like anything you would expect. It is not a quiet family night. It is a fun, party night. And if it snows, doubly so.
The economic problems that have reared up over the past few months might put a slight crimp in things. But chances are Christmas Eve will be a great night for going nutty and staying up late. I will try to write more about it after the weekend, as the night gets closer.
Of course, if you have your own ideas about Christmas Eve, feel free to add a comment here or at the forum. We always appreciate different opinions at the Gig Guide.
