...many wearing fluorescent red stars, the SOHO corporate symbol, stood on the grounds of the Commune, sipping champagne and listening to rock bands and rappers alike - at one point the guests dancing, memorably, to the version of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech set to a hip-hop beat. You wouldn't hear that in the Forbidden City...
