“Other fun in Hanoi: last night I went to a great event at Tadioto, a nice bar-gallery-cafe in the south end of Hanoi. Lots of poetry and music by expats, Vietnamese, and some traveling artists. Great guitar music and a lovely poetry-violin husband-and-wife duo (she’s originally from Sri Lanka, he’s from Ireland).

And some fantastically intense electronic noise-sing-scream-trance stuff from some talented Vietnamese artists, too. A great night, and it’s fantastic to discover the vibrant creative community here in Hanoi among young Vietnamese artists and expats.”
Xin cảm ơn. Tadioto’s grateful for these words, from Andy Engelson, a Seattle transplant to Ha Noi, whose blog is a lot of fun.

Thanks for the kind words about my blog, it was a fun evening. I’ll be at Tadioto Sunday for the next meeting of the Hanoi Writer’s Collective: http://newhanoian.xemzi.com/en/event/show/2318/date/2010-02-07. Writers wanting to share and improve their work are invited to join us!

Thanks to you, Andy. Sun I may not make it to the writer’s collective meet. But Scott and Paul are playing later that night.
I posted the writer’s event on Tadito, & on my Facebook pages.
All the best
