USA!

Just back from my quick trip to San Francisco. I actually didn't take very many pictures this trip.  So few in fact that I'm going to do it all in ONE BLOG! :-P

早くアメリカまでのトラベルさき終わった。あまり写真を撮らないから、一ブログだけ書きます！何日だけサンフランシスコに居た。来た後、友達達と一緒食事した：

The day after I landed Eric set up a dinner in Emeryville w/ some friends. I should have taken more pictures, the only ones I did seem to involve Spawn-of-Eric:

pre-party mini-tour

Actually one more anniversary party related blog I forgot to post.  I typed this up on the airplane actually.

Things were quite hectic the week before the party,  between the videos, DVDs, boards, banners, stickers, press releases, sponsors, etc... 

Unfortunately the party also happened to be a good reason to come visit so I had to play host to some friends coming to HK from overseas.    Regular Etchy blog readers will know that I like to make an effort to show my international friends around HK as much as possible...  Bu...Read more

wow, what a summer for movies!

They're running commercials for the new Ed Norton Hulk movie on TV in the US now...  it comes out in like two weeks... Iron Man just came out a few weeks ago --- so Marvel's doing two big films in the same summer? (maybe they've got modest expectations on the Hulk after the last one...)

also Indy 4 comes out this weekend here. Unfortunately I'm flying back to asia on Thursday, but because of the time change, I'll be too late for opening night in HK.  [Anyone want to see it with me over the weekend?]...Read more

Michael Wong show

Three weekends ago (so long ago!) Michael Wong did a show called 'Our Home' at the Culture Center.  It was a bit of a strange set up actually,  the first half featured Japanese singer Yuki Daikohara and separately an erhu maestro Ray Wong.  The second half was Michael and his big band (btw - their CD...Read more
