Q: Bands/orchestras/musicians playing in China - sign that they're crap?

Obviously, not including the top 4 cities, especially Beijing and Shanghai, if a band/orchestra/random group of musicians come to play in China, is it a sign that they're either crap or on the wane?

Well, if they do well here, it means they have Chinese fans. What other reason would they need?

I would say many will go and see them just because they are foreigners, even if do not understand one word they are signing

If by suck you mean they're off the popular music map in North America, then perhaps yes. But that being said i haven't seen many acts I'd pay to see period.. But some friends just saw Death Cab for Cutie play a tiny crowd in Shanghai.. and they'd never seen them at home...

Q: Can a Z visa holder do graduate studies in China while working?

A: Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside

A:Good question! I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
