it's beautiful out today. the entire cty is under a blanket of fog, the kind of mist artist's dreams are made of.

"While the Rolling Stones are due to perform in Shanghai on April 1 and in Beijing on April 4, the Chinese government has asked the band not to play some of their hit tunes while in the communist country because they contain sexual references. According to Ananova.com, Chinese fans will not hear "Brown Sugar," "Honky Tonk Women," "Beast of Burden" or "Let's Spend the Night Together." Concert organizer Chen Jixin says the four songs were also cut from the mainland release of the Forty Licks album by China's culture ministry."

so much for progress...haha, well it's not like they'll be missin out on anything.
