Has anyone ever been to this Tattoo festival? A friend of mine invited me to go with him on the 7th March.
I'd never heard of it before so here is a link to a blog about it and a couple of youtube vids.
Paknam Web: Festival at Tattoo Temple - (Thailand Travel, Culture, Food and Life)
It looks like everyone sits around meditating and working them selves up into a frenzy until they think they are possessed, then they take a running charge at the coppers and have to be wrestled to the ground.
Looks like a load of bollox to me but it should be good for a laugh.
