Rockit Man: R&B Legend Herbie Hancock Announces Beijing Date

Herbie Hancock has announced a show in Beijing at the ThinkPad Space in Wudaokou. The aging funkster will make his Beijing bow on November 9.

Tickets are already on sale here and are priced between RMB 300 and RMB 900.

With a career spanning over 50 years and 14 Grammys to his name, the Herbster has a sizable collection of hits to call on, but is perhaps best known for "Rockit", the 1983 synthesizer-laden ditty that earned him five MTV Video Music Awards.
