History

July 25th 2008, they performed at the Yu Yin Tang during a Britpop night (Bands: 8mg, Sky Garden, Modern Cheese and The Way). According to Andy Best they werea new band doing mainly covers and hadn't rehearsed much. Once on the stage it hit them that they were in a proper club with lots of 'real' people with tickets looking at them. It was a shock. After a well received cover of Radiohead's Creep, they got themselves together and finished the set..[1]

May 22nd 2009, Shanghai band 8mg came under fire as a douban discussion started calling 8mg the most ignorant band I've met[2].[3]
