    Just back from a trip that brought me around Asia: the Philippines, Hong
    Kong, People's Republic of China, Singapore and Malaysia...

    I [e:trinity] played three shows in the Philippines, most of which were
    real well-recieved, and they even have a healthy live PA scene in Manila,
    so I was in good company.

    I checked out the clubs in Hong Kong...THEY SUCK! It's got *THE WORST* club
    scene for a city of that sort of population and stature. THE WORST!
    DONT *EVER* GO CLUBBING IN HONG KONG (but it's the bomb for shopping
    though...) You'll hear nothing but commercial house music and weak cover
    bands. Also, one night I paid HK$40 for dinner and then later went to a
    club. I paid HK$53 for a beer. One beer! WHAT'S UP WITH THAT?!?!

    Singapore was pretty cool, they're real into deep house and big beat in
    that town. Most of the clubs are lame commerical house fare, but this one
    club, Zouk, is pretty cool.

    So what did I miss here? (email privately)
