Post by buksida »

On the 16th of January Black Mountain will host a star spangled charity concert on the grounds of the booming Hua Hin golf course. The organizer behind the charity event is Svenskföreningen in Hua Hin. 1000 Baht from every sold ticket will go to help children in the Hua Hin area.

When the show kicks of on Saturday at 19.00 the audience can expect to be dazzled by Robert Well’s Rhapsody in Rock featuring musical tunes of Divas of Rhapsody, Lagaylia, Jessica Andersson, Sofia Kallgren, Vocalettes and the Rhapsody Orchestra, so don’t miss it!

How about occasionally posting something about this fair town we live in or some info on upcoming events and activities instead of 795 plugs for your own place? :idea:

Then we'll go back for a p_ssup, get the cider refilled!

I'm obviously very unlucky when I visit Hua Hin - I seem to miss all of these decent events.

It's a shame they can't issue a better programme well in advance to allow visitors to plan better.
