The Bookworm

The Bookworm is quickly becoming one of our favorite places to hang out. We discovered it our first week here in Beijing, but haven't been back much since we both have our Kindles we haven't needed to buy/borrow books there. But lately, they have been having some really cool events.

This week we went to two of them. The first was a classic movie on the roof. It was Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Neither of us had seen it before, but we both really enjoyed it. The weather was perfect and we ordered sandwiches and Diet Coke from the bar to snack on while we watched the movie.


The second event we went to this week was a Beatles cover band concert. These guys play all over Beijing and we had heard good things about them. The only bad part was they started over an hour late, but we had dinner on the roof (where they showed the movie a few nights before) and visited with friends while we waited for them to start playing.

The concert was great. They sounded really good. Nick is a big Beatles fan and even he was impressed. They played 2 sets and even had a costume change in the middle. They started with the earlier Beatles songs and then switched to Sergeant Pepper costumes and played more of their later songs. We had a great time.



Sorry for the poor picture quality. We didn't have our camera so we had to use Nick's phone.
