Bangkok, Photography, Thailand Saxophone Blues Pub Revisited: Khun Chai
Tuesday, April 30, 2013 at 6:29PM 
I was back down at the Saxophone Pub on Victory Monument Circle in Bangkok last Sunday night for a big blues show featuring my old friend, Khun Chai, perhaps one of the greatest blues guitar players on earth . . . and I do not exaggerate. I sat in front with my good camera and f1.4 lens. Magic.
I took 563 photos that night. Decisions, decisions, decisions.
Khun Chai has a great blues singer in his band . . . I cannot remember hearing a better version of "Wang Dang Doodle."
Chai's band is great in it's own right, but an incredible 15 year old sax player sat in . . . WOW! . . . this kid is FANTASTIC!
Khun Chai in action.
If you have never heard Khun Chai play the blues you are REALLY missing something special.
Saxophone has the perfect environment for listening to the blues . . .
Khun Chai singin' dem blues.
I hope I make friends in Scotland as cool as Khun Chai . . . but I don't think that is possible.
Until we meet again . . .
Play on, Khun Chai . . . play on.

I'm so happy to hear that Khun Chai and his band are still playing in Bangkok - we used to go and see them at a hotel in Sukhumvit on Friday nights but then they disappeared. We didn't know how to track them down. Does anyone know where they are regularly performing so that my friends and I can go watch?
