Our next show will be The Underground #90 on 5th December and that's this Saturday!!


We've got a stupendous line-up that night and its all rock infused! 
Come and check out Speaka & Cicadas, both newcomers to The Underground circuit.   Shotgun Politics who although it's their debut at The Underground, are known to all of us for being a Hong Kong finalist band in the Global Battle of the Bands which was happening in Sept & Oct.   Hazden and Thinking Out Loud (featuring Chris B) are both female fronted bands that are a MUST SEE!

9pm start.   See you there for our last numbered show in 2009, our last show in The Melting Pot in 2009!

TRAFFIC on 5th DECEMBER WILL BE STRANGE as it's also the OPENING NIGHT of the EAST ASIAN GAMES - so please check on your ferry timetables, buses etc. as MANY roads will be closed between 5pm to 11pm (at different times in different places) - thank you!

Live Performance Reviews

 Underground 87













All of us here at The Underground realise that when you are new in town or not a regular live music supporter, how can you sift the good from the bad when it comes to Hong Kong bands?


Well for 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:
Want to buy gear?  Lots of gear for sale!
