kungfu string girls band : KungFu String Girls Band gave a wonderful performance on the international version of Smiling Circle

Mon, 14 Jan 2008 05:39:16 GMT

The international version of Smiling Circle Publishing ceremony was held in the old but anticipated Drum Tower at 0:00 on January 1, 2008. Lying on Beijing’s axis, with 700 years of history, Drum Tower was decorated by high-tech lights which lit the night sky over the capital. Accompanied the warm cheers and the countdown Bell, Beijing volunteers and citizens greeted the Olympic year that they have longed for.
As special guest performers, KungFu String girls brought this evening a fiery opening. The performance started at 23:30 in evening, when Beijing’s outdoor temperature was closed to 10 degrees below zero. But in order to ensure perfect performance results, they wore skirts in bitterly cold surrounding. Though wearing the least clothes among the stars, they were dancing full of charming just like beautiful butterflies. Their passionate style of performance ignited the passion of the audience, who were sparing no effort to give their most enthusiastic screams and cheers, completely forgot they were in a cold winter. According to KungFu String’s assistant Miss Shen, Girls had made a lot of efforts. They rehearsed as many as eight times, which were carried out outdoors. It was so cold that even a slight pause for a while, their fingers would lose consciousness. For the sake of withstanding chilliness, they all drank the vodka (known as the hard drinks) before performance.
KungFu String played Light of Glory, which was composed by famous musician DiJi for the sake of Olympics. It is majestic and excited .it expressed people’s expectation of Olympic and confidence of the victory incisively and vividly. It is worth mentioning that KungFu String had been involved in the Olympic volunteer’s performance Last New Year's night on the same stage. Public-spirited KungFu String girls have always taken part in the Olympic related activities. For example, they participated in the 1 year Olympic countdown anniversary celebration in Tiananmen Square together with other famous stars. Other large-scale performances they have participated are listed as follow: opening ceremony of the international sports, Beijing Olympic Volunteer theme activities, in 2007 the Olympic Games opening ceremony song collection, the 2007 Olympic Cultural Festival closing ceremony, CCTV "romantic ice • refueling for the Olympic Games" etc.

Nushu : Wanna make a video?

Thu, 29 Nov 2007 17:37:14 GMT

Hello everyone.

Wanna make a video?

If anyone out there is good at crafting music videos out of thin air, we are looking for submissions for our song SPILL that we will consider submitting to Jam Records for the Sweet Relief Compilation DVD (proceeds benefit victims of hurricane Katrina). Our song SPILL is included on the compilation CD. Check out the Sweet Relief Myspace page that is listed as a top friend on our Myspace page at www.myspace.com/nushumusic

We thought that rather than put together a standard ‘band video’ (which is after all what we’d end up doing out of not really knowing much else) it might be more worthwhile/interesting/fun, to let any of you out there who are daring enough, put something together using whatever ideas/talents you have (cartoon-like as an example). Only limitation is that it should fit the song (if possible!) and not contain ‘objectionable’ material (error on the side of caution simply so we don’t have to sit around and judge the level of objectionablism to determine if it is acceptable – and YES we know we just made up a new word).

Submission deadline to us is February 14, 2008. We suggest you upload your video onto YouTube (or similar) and then let us know how to find it. Best ones may also end up on our Myspace &/or nushumusic.com.

For a limited time only you may download SPILL for
F R E E at www.nushumusic.com

Any questions, let us know!
