Hi Sam,

Thanks for that link. I’ll ask around and see what I can find out.

Regarding your August 19th gig, I might just take you up on that!

Hey Carrie,

thanks for your effort. I really appreciate it. These are the ones I am talking about:

I would like to know whether or whether not they are still there and how to get there in case they are… Don´t stress yourself, if you can figure out something it´ll be great, if not… no worries.

Yes, we are playing in Taipei on 19th August (at The Wall) and the following day in Taichung at Emerge… we are just 4 young lads making typical Indie-Rock I´d say… come by if you feel like it!

Hi Sam,

Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about a pod village in the Wanli District. I’ll see if I can find something out for you when I get back from vacation.

By the way, you mentioned that you’re in a band? What kind of a band do you play in? Do you play in Taiwan?

Thanks a lot Carrie! Wow, that´s too bad… They didn´t even leave one or two??? I wanted to see them for quite a while and will finally make it over from Europe… I heard there´s something similiar in Wanli District. Do you know anything about that? Meaning where exactly it is and if it´s worth going? I´ll be touring with my band and have a day of in Taipei and am really interested in stuff like that. I appreciate your help! Best wishes, Sam

This village looks derelict and creep looking. I wonder if people will return to live their one day?

It looks like it was a quick money making scheme for some developers. They intended to create a buzz, get them sold at high prices and get out of it before they notice how shoddy the workmanship was.

Sadly, from what I found online, these amazing structures have been demolished by what seems to be the Taiwanese government! I lost the link, but someone just recently went to the site and all of them were torn down with only the remnants of scraps of multicolored fiberglass on the ground. Sad stuff…
