I live in a major city but cannot find Chinatown

Oh, and it looks like I missed the competition deadline. I'll never get signed at this rate.

Is there a Chinatown in, say, Beijing?

Or perhaps a 'Britaintown' ?

[Lady J]

we have a chinatown in cardiff...

though it's more of China-street really..

well.. actually just a couple of take aways and a couple of chinese supermarkets next to each other..

You think that's funny? The city I come from which is now smaller than Cardiff has a Chinatown consisting of ONE building...

There's a weeny little 'White People's Town' (Lao Wei Town) where we all live comfortably enough. We have all the typical ethnic representations too -- like an authentic Bangers & Mash palace, traditional-style pub wif a John Bull in the front an a real bowling green where the people can come and look at us on Sundays.

I don't know about China but in Thailand the US Soldiers on holiday from killing Vietnamese peasants carved out a little enclave called Pattaya City. Today it is almost exclusively visited Europeans and lived in by European ex-pats.

Some Thais call it Nakon Si Farang... or better translated "City of the (European) Foreigners".

I've also heard it refered to as Lek Europburi... "Little Europe town"

Diek -- Undercover: I hear that first sound in some Goa song someplace. I think it is in India.

I'm sorry but my english level can´t reach the fine irony that's suppossed to be on your post.
I don't know if you're joking or talking serious.
Perhaps my music is not staff, but the sure thing is that is mine.
I would like to think that I've misunderstood you.
Respect!

well it was indeed humour, but nothing against you, rather against the stupid Major Vice President (the fictional character created by emdot_ambient) who's confusing Goa, the genre, and Goa, the location (even though there's a relation between them, i guess).

I think emdot_ambient just meant through this that your music seems to belong to Goa, the genre. As i'm not a specialist, i won't judge the relevance of this affirmation.

What do you think why I´ve put the at the end of my post?

typo ?

...and just as I thought I wouldn't get a single vote, here comes mr. Rabbyt giving me a no1 vote. It was fantastic, I tells you. And Gordon gives me another vote. The cherry on the pie...

My grandkids are going to get sick of that story.

Thanks guys.

btw the XTC comparison made me smile so wildly 'my face could crack in two and you could fix it with your kissing glue'. I adore those guys.
