This blog has heard from several sources over several months that there is a BIG festival in the works, slated for August 14/15 at the Shanghai F1 track.  Apparently, Emma Ticketmaster are taking on the Chinese festival market head on with a 5 stage, 2 day extravaganza, featuring bands from the Summersonic bill (Nine Inch Nails, Linkin Park, Lady Gaga, Girl Talk).

The festival will be named “One” and will certainly constitute the biggest international lineup in China to date.  The question in our minds is that, knowing Shanghai’s weather as we do, will the raging heat of August make the car park at the F1 track the most pleasant place for a 2 day extravaganza of music?

Still, the lineup so far speaks for itself,  but will Shanghai’s notoriously bad travelers think so?  China needs a festival like this.  We can’t wait to see how it all pans out…
