Culture 101


it was bangkok's yearly shot in the dark at a rave on saturday with Culture ONE 2009: Bangkok International Dance Music Festival.. but some major elements were missing..
namely:
  • a couple of thousand pills and baggies
  • a decent setting (surely there must be some forest within an hour of BKK),
  • more of a pronounced musical line (stage genres merged and got messy)
  • normal party schedule (things were already wrapping up by about 2am: head-out-your-front-door time)
At 1,200 baht a ticket, not sure if the kiddies got their value, although the mostly hi-so crowd are good for it,and they arent the ones who normally pay anyway..

i guess its important to push such events in asia, even if its 20 years after the fact..
