Sanya is considered the "Hawaii" of China

Time to go

Sanya is located on Hainan Island, which is just slightly smaller than Taiwan

Drinking local "PU" tea, one of the highest grades of Chinese teas

The Sanya Music Festival celebrated Chinese New Year (Spring Festival)

Explosives and fireworks fired at the beginning of our set

Our show was carried live on CCTV throughout China

The stage was outdoors and faced the beach

This was our 6th "major" show in China

The stage and lighting were at the typical high Chinese standards

The hosts were from CCTV, the major network in China

Michael performed a classical guitar piece followed by a heavy rock solo

We were the only band from the USA

Millions viewed the show on CCTV

Chinese New Year is China's biggest celebration

There were simultaneous celebrations happening in all major Chinese cities; Beijing, Shanghai, etc.

CCTV would go to the Beijing celebration, then Shanghai, then back to Sanya, etc.

Many government officials from Beijing came to the island to celebrate Spring Festival

Fireworks went off in the sky continuously during the show

None of us had ever seen so many fireworks in our lifetime. Spring Festival is a one-of-a-kind event

These Muslim girls were big fans of the band

Angelo, Scott and a young fan after the show

The were several well known Chinese acts on the bill including this group
