Rocking Until I Roll Away

After twenty years away from the music scene, Liu Shu, a former rock star and rapper now in his forties, makes an unexpected comeback as a drummer. Just as he's preparing to make his mark and get things done, he discovers that the scene is no different from the one he left behind: there are loyal friends, but also endless scheming and betrayal. Drawing on his experience in the arts and his clear, clever mind, Liu Shu navigates the world of actors, musicians, and all manner of colorful characters. After three unbelievable years, he becomes one of the hottest percussionists in the business. His romantic entanglements are just as bizarre and eye-opening. This is a hilarious, Beijing-style comedy and a modern urban palace drama depicting every kind of person in the arts scene. In the world of rock, people keep rocking their way in, while others roll right out.
