NO CLUE to WHAT BANDS ARE COOL IN HONG KONG?   Not sure which bands to check out?

Well for over five and half years at all our events, we've had reviewers come and watch the bands perform and then write their honest reviews.  Some reviews are better than others, some longer than others but all honest.

We are all amazed that we now have reviews for over 300 bands in Hong Kong (and a sprinkling of overseas bands too!) to share with you.

Many of the bands performing this month are listed in our reviews:
