The concert is named after an old song of Cui's from about 10
years ago called "Night of an Era."
"I wrote that song at home at the end of last century, when I
felt I was a rose and the society was a knife or rock." Cui said,
"I called it Night of an Era in hope of a brand new start after the
night."
"2008 is the morning of this era," he said, "The Beijing Olympic
Games will be a chance for everyone - idealists, realists, and
speculators. Its positive influences will absolutely be more than
the negative."
