Posted: December 27th, 2011 | Author: LumDimSum | Filed under: Hot Tips, Music, Upcoming Events | Tags: Chuck Comeau, David Desrosiers, Jeff Stinco, Pierre Bouvier, Sebastien Lefebvre, Simple Plan, Yugongyishan | 3 Comments »

Canadian rock band Simple Plan is back in Beijing to debut their upcoming Asia Tour. Performing at Yugongyishan, this concert will be a nice change of pace from the massive stadiums hosting thousands of fans. With a capacity of only 700 pax, fans can get up-close and personal with Simple Plan.

“Simple Plan had a spunky, energetic punk sound, textured like Cheap Trick, but raw like Pennywise.”

A group of five former high school pals Pierre Bouvier, Jeff Stinco, David Desrosiers, Sebastien Lefebvre and Chuck Comeau who came together in 1999 to form this multi-award winning punk-pop band with hit singles like “I’m Just A Kid”, “Welcome to My Life” and “Jet Lag”.

 Will.i.am & Hillary Clinton – What a combo!

The Booey Lehoo Concert has been on the radar for ages now and plenty of hype that goes with having such a diverse range of people teaming together to make this happen ie Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and, of course, Hillary Clinton and will.i.am (pic above) discussing the importance of educational and cultural ties between the US and China, a long-term initiative starting with a concert in Beijing to plant the seeds of global understanding with the younger generations.  Read State Department story here.

Taking place at Beijing’s National Stadium this Saturday, December 17, 2011, the concert will be featuring both US artists including will.i.am, apl.de.ap and John Legend and Chinese artists Shunza and Sa Dingding. It is organized by APSA (Americans Promoting Study Abroad), The Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation, and Crooked Timber Media with the goal of giving American high school students from low-income families public a full scholarship from seven US cities to study in Beijing on a program that focuses on “language acquisition, cultural understanding, leadership development, and exposure to international careers”.   The initiative will also provide a similar opportunity for Chinese students to study abroad in the United States.

“The Concert culminates a week of events celebrating China-US cultural and educational exchange. Together, the US and Chinese artists will stage an evening celebration of the possibilities when Americans and Chinese work together creatively.”
