you should experience it at least once in your life! esp. the week lasting celebrations upcountry are sometimes a blast. also khao sarn raod is a major happening every year. but i bet you once you experienced this most likely you are settled withit, as you are the main targets for the thais as a farang. believe me after 2 hours fully soaked and the sund descending you really feel the pain and are ripe for a nice cold the next days!
if you experienced this once or twice in your life you do start to hate songkran!
i myself try to be out of thailand on these days as bangkok is dead anyway. most places are shut or on a very minimum operational status and all the girls are mainly with their families. so no action anyway!

I was on a motorcycle drive during this holiday and BOY was it dangerous, they throw bucketfull of ice-chilled water at you while driving. All the roads are extemrely slippery. I was actually wearing a bathing suit for like 3-4 days. Don't expect to remain dry.
All and all it was fun, and unlike Griffin, the bar girls in chiangmai were part of the action and still available.

Dangerous is an understatement. I am not going to bore you guys with statistics on this one.
Bangkok is pretty empty apart from the backpackers road, no personal experience here.
BUT, teh rose of the north is buzzing and that again is an understatement. Lots of action during the day and the nightlife is not less then normal days.
True some of the BG go home but a lot of the girls from BKK come to Chiangmai to party.
You either love it or hate it, but one is for sure, you need to experience it once.
Post 100, cheers!

I had a great time there during Son Krang about 8 years ago. It was strange because I was actually there for the funneral of a very good friend of mine (farang who had a buddist funneral) but it happened to be Son Krang. Ended up having one of the best times of my life, and believe me my friend would have wanted it that way.
At first I hated it, because the moment I walked out of my hotel I would get drenched. However after I loosened up with a mai pen rai attitude it became serious fun! It got to the point where I would just put on wet clothes when I would go out again later in the day.. no sense putting something dry on!
Patpong was a blast playing with all the girls. You have to make some good allies or you'll be dead meat.. I had a hot girl with a big as water machine gun as my friend so I was in good care most of the night 
In general things seem pretty dead then, though, except for the nightlife places which are still open. Thermae was in vogue back then so that was packed and a lot of fun (and I had my girl with the big gun) ...
I hope I can be there for the upcoming festival. But like Griffins says, 2 is probably enough...

At least this past year, hotel bookings and travel didn't seem to be a problem in terms of arranging them-- but premium pricing seemed to be in effect for hotels. Also, they apparently cracked down on the water tossing in bkk this year (although it still went on in a lot of places). As for Chiang Mai, it was crazy and fun but getting hit with water pulled right out of the moat wasn't all that cool.

I got hit with 25% in all hotels at that time. And I walked for like 3 hours... Places were booked solid for 4-5 days in advance so I had to take a business class on one of the flights.
Also, don't carry anything important on you, or get a good watersealed bag or IT WILL GET WET. They don't have any problem showering you while you're trying to take photographs or eating for that matter. And if your food gets wet, stop eating it, they sometime use water from dirty dirty sources (like canals).
