I saw that a few days ago, and was thinking about seeing Clapton or the Eagles but then I looked up the ticket prices! :shock: :shock: :shock:
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Saw Clapton in 2007 but the acoustics did not do him justice

Audience were mostly Thais who didn't realise that the encore (cocaine) was the highlight and half of them were making for the exits when the maestro reappeared on stage

Expensive but I was being treated :cheers:

Well not only am a Floyd freak but I'm a Clapton freak too

Some in HH are thinking about a privately rented minibus and a 'one night in Bangkok' trip

Bearing in mind what I said about the acoustics in my previous post we will probably be looking at tickets in the top end range (5K).

Suits me cos I need to do a visit to the Embassy for an income statement so I'll probably have a 'two nights in BK' trip

Anybody interested?

I bought tickets some time ago as they were selling fast.
There are not many seats left ( none in the top range near the stage).
no more dePreston
