eh... its impossible to get tickets for his shows..

cos there's no tickets!! just go there to queue up! FREE!
cos they r worried that there is no crowd.. those audience are actually university students whom the TV station invites to fill the house!
the only non-students is my group of 10.. :sweat:

hmm.. i onli went taipei.. get a mrt map with places of interests on it.. quite simple to go around.. most of the tourist spots are near mrt stations.
places like the national museum palace, CKS memorial hall, national memorial hall, xi men ting, shilin nite market, wu fen pu, zhong xiao dong road..
all are within reach of each other so u can easily alter ur itinerary depending onthe weather..

Actually, betel nuts girls are banned in Taipei City. Technically, Danshui is part of Taipei County and not Taipei City, that's why there are still some of them there. Betel nuts girls are more common in the south actually, in Tainan, Kaoshiung, Pingtung,Taichung Counties.

Hackie, you got see the basketball dunking machine in Danshui? Hit 250 points for free bubble tea!
