The underground is on the 1st floor!

Like always,what you are about to read is not really breaking news stuff or have no actuality at all, but is some 2 or so week old. Anyway it could nicely continue this kind of series or season I've kind of started, with a song of the day.
One of our colleagues is a singer and song writer, and when she and one of her bands has a gig some where, she always send out an e-mail to advertise where and when. So we joined in with other colleagues to go to Wan Chai -the red light district of Hong Kong- to find this place called: "Rock school" where she performed in an event called: "Underground, Girls with guitars".
Well, the "Underground was on the 1st floor on one of the many entertainment buildings hidden in Wan Chai's stone and light jungle. As a matter of fact, this "Underground" was squeezed in between a restaurant on the ground floor and then some different discotheques on the 3rd and 4th, and was only accessible by a lift.
Janice -the friends name- and her band; "Purble Fruit", was the first of 4 bands on the evening, and they were the most silent with only two acoustic guitars and then Janice on vocal, performing her own songs in both English and Cantonese.
There were lot's of interesting -and loud- Hong Kong rock that evening, and as the name of the event told; it was mainly girls hammering on the guitars that night.
Like always in Hong Kong there was of corse a lot of mobile and video filming, and so I can present "Purple Fruit" and the song: "That's my way to love you".
Yes, Janice the singer is our friend.
