Guitarists in Pattaya.........
One of the things that really gets up my nose in Pattaya is guitarists who can't play properly.
On a nightly basis not only do I have to endure 'Sultons of Swing' played in wrong cords and with missed notes but some moron falang telling me Lam Morrison and co are better than Jimmy Page or Zakk Wlyde. To this day I have never seen a decent guitarist with a good equipment. Why is the sound system so shit everywhere? Also, why do so many people in Blues Factory act like they were big shots in groups in a past life , shout out advice or even worse want to sing with the band? Just sit down and be quiet ok? :cunt: Leave it to the pro's like Rockin Jerry. Here's how to play a guitar. |

Wasn`t in the BF but a few nights back I was enjoying listening to some music at a beer bar,thai band playing and some drunken falang decided to get with the band and start singing and dancing. Dreadful singer,should have been dragged off. :baseballbat: |
That reminds me of a time in a beer bar when a farang joined the band to sing (poorly) the song "American Pie".... the one that goes on and on. Unfortunately he knew all the words so was able to 'sing' the whole song for us all. :shock:

My new one is ok, his equipment is also not bad.Why is the sound system so shit everywhere? Agreed, again I hope ours is a bit better then the norm. Also, why do so many people in Blues Factory act like they were big shots in groups in a past life , shout out advice or even worse want to sing with the band? I have to put up with that nightly. :mau: |

Back in the early 90s the Thais in their wisdom adopted some regulation that banned foreign performers from all but the major tourist hotels. I assume that ban has long since died a death, or not? Is it still in place and you just do what you have to do to have the guys (and Mary) perform or is it possible now to get work permits or whatever they need for foreign artists? Drop me a PM if the answer isn't really for the open board. |
tom....
davet will get back to you in 3 weeks.....as this will be his next scheduled visit:riverdance: |
Dave,
As it goes I wasn't having a pop at The Blues Factory. Even though I'm not really a big blues music lover I can see your bands are by far better than 99% of the others. I like going to Blue Factory now and then but as I said before there is always some fat mong who decides the band need his services. It's just one of my pet hates. Same as some people hate falangs getting up on the poles. When I see that it totally ruins my evening and I leave. Not just in yours, anywhere. Why don't you employ some bouncers who stove peoples heads in if they try to get up and sing? :out: |
