Two members of the now defunct legendary Hong Kong band Beyond
are planning to revive the "Glorious Years" for Beijing fans.
The rock band's classics, such as "Glorious Years" and
"Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies," are likely to be heard on February
1 and 2 at the Workers' Indoor Arena, as former band members Paul
Wong and Yip Sai Wing lead their own bands in performing Beyond's
best-known hits.
This will be Wong and Yip's first on-stage reunion since Beyond
broke up in 2005.
Mainland rock band Hei Bao will be the guest performer at the
two shows.
However, no tickets to the concerts are being sold. The
organizer is hoping to use Beyond's power to launch a membership
scheme, in which fans must buy membership cards for a series of
concerts instead of buying individual tickets. The concert series
also will include shows by Chyi Chin and Jolin Tsai.
