All right, if you're headed to the San Diego asian Film Festival this weekend, make sure you check out Blowfish, the festival's popular Friday night party, featuring live musical performances from the Blue Scholars, Far East Movement, hip hip violinist Paul Dateh, and Ashley Robles. For more information, get all the event details here.
It's Friday, October 10 at Canes Bar & Grill in San Diego. Admission is $10 at the door and $7 with a festival ticket stub. Come check out some kickass music acts, as well as the fresh beats of DJ Icy Ice of the world famous Beat Junkies, and projected music video premieres from Asian American artists. Should be a pretty cool night.
Meanwhile, on the film front, check out today's schedule of screenings, featuring lots of cool features like Jennifer Phang's Half-Life, Arthur Dong's Hollywood Chinese, Prachya Pinkaew's Chocolate or Harry Kim's Dirty Hands: The Art and Crimes of David Choe. Also be sure to check out a shorts program or two. I've seen most of the films in I Heart U, and I can attest it's a fun program.
