HANGZHOU, China (AP): Young fans, some sporting spiky mohawks, slam-danced and stage-dived as the music blasted into the night. One wore a metal-studded jacket with what looked like vintage Sex Pistols buttons.
Several hundred people packed Nine Club early this year for the "Unite Punk Music Festival” in the city of Hangzhou, a tech hub in southeastern China also known for its scenic West Lake.
