:: the acoustic guitars, harmonicas, and this retro Hohner Melodica came out recently while I was picnicking in Shanghai with friends. One of those friends was Zhang Feng (张峰, aka Bono), the frontman for the well-known Shanghai-based indie rock band Banana Monkey. See below for a short video catching Zhang Feng play a few crowd-pleasers, namely (and in order) Qi Qin’s The World Outside, Wang Fei’s One Little Wish, Luo Dayou’s Childhood, Qi Qin’s Sometime Around Winter, and Eric Clapton’s Wonderful Tonight.
If the VIMEO video loads slowly, try viewing it on Tudou. For more from Banana Monkey on NeochaEDGE, link here. For more from Zhang Feng on NeochaEDGE, link here. // AjS

:: I spotted this throw-up today in Shanghai while heading down Xinle Rd., near the the Huating Rd. intersection. I recently saw the same throw-up just around the corner from this one.

:: taken at the Shanghai Botanical Gardens (上海植物园), where I spent my Sunday picnicking and lounging with friends on this grass patch of paradise. This photo was taken on my iPhone using PANO, a fun panoramic (vertical or horizontal) application I highly recommend. This is four separate photos stitched together, the application can do up to sixteen. Me like-y. // AjS
