A lady friend of mine who works at Hollywood in Nana told me late Friday night (July 30) that the bars will all be closed tomorrow and the next day -- that is, this Saturday and Sunday (July 31/Aug 1) -- due to the atypical invocation of a previously unobserved Thai holiday by our fearless leader, Mr. Thaksin. Can someone A] confirm this closing, B] tell me if it's confined to Nana (or perhaps it's confined merely to Hollywood), or if it includes bar beers and gogos citywide, and C] just what is the holiday or occasion behind this sad turn of events?

some of the quieter places could still be open. In Pattaya, some of the open air bars are open and will serve beer in coffee mugs and play the music rather softly. Something similar might go on in Soi 22/Washington Square, but somethow I don't think the boys in brown will allow Soi 33 to continue. Forget about Go-Gos (NEP/SC/PP), none will be open.

thanks for the confirmations. anyone know what the holiday is? or are these closings related to the BRIST-EC (or whatever) conference (some kind of APEC spinoff I think) going on this weekend?

It's Buddhist Lent. I hope you're not here on holiday and didn't bother to check about the local public holiday schedule first...

So we can expect loadsa new threads over the next coupla days with posts like, "Why is xxxxx (insert a bar's name) closed?", or pleas from parched and horny BTFers, "Help! where can I get a drink, anybody spotted a BG today?". Obviously you resident types will find something to do so why not give up a list of the bars that you know are "available" during this drout. Cheers

In these days, besides the MP, I think it'd be very hard to score....all thais are too much into this buddhist event...even my wife promised to quit drinking beer and eating beef for the next 3 months.....f_cking hilarious knowing her but still she's gonna do it...... Perhaps you could go temples hopping and hope to see a BG praying the gods to help her financially...and tada! just like a miracle, a brand new farang clients comes before her sight!

caronte, I've NEVER known of a Farahng to "pick up" a BG at the temple... and like mentioned previously, there will be some of the quieter bars open. NM, not to dash your hopes, but doubtful, too hi profile !!
