Here's a few pics of the Bangkok Rocks 2006 festival.... I only went on the Saturday. Oasis were headlining but Liam was having a stroppy day and sounded shit.. Best on the day for entertainment was Ian Brown (even if he did wear a pink shell-suit)..
Anybody know if they had one in 2007?.. I never saw one advertised.
Anyway, here were a few Thai bands starting from about midday but I only caught a glimpse of them because there were no beer stalls inside the stage area... It was sponsored by 100 Pipers if I remember right, and they had monopolised the stage area with one measly stall dishing out whiskey...
The stage area... there were 3 price areas - I was trying to impress a gik and I wanted a good view so I went for the dearer ones up near the stage..
The tolilets were a pleasant surprise... These certainly beat the shitters that I had seen at festivals in the UK:
First farang band were a cheese munching lot from Belgium that went by the name of Deus:
Best on the day: Ian Brown was next up...
Ian Brown again:
Franz Ferdinand were next up... All their stuff sounded the same..:
Then the headliners... Oasis.. They were OK but Liam Gallacher decided he was having a tantrum day... His singing was shit and he had a go at one of the sound guys.... The Thai girl I was with asked "why he just stand there... he do nothing"... I told her that was his act:
Noel Gallacher did a song or three also:
That was that for the Saturday - I didn't go on the Sunday and can't remember who was playing...
Bangkok Rocks! wooooo.....
