Jazz music in Bangkok, the ‘elite’ may need some soothing music to ease their anger after not getting things all their own way yesterday with the Supreme Courts decision.
Tickets should be selling like hot cakes for this one and as I have mentioned before HM the King has had a great influence in the country’s love for this type of music. It will be packed to the rafters at Central World and not a red shirt in sight.

Martyn, It will definitely be a well attended event. Jazz is huge in Thailand as you pointed out due to the Kings love of the music. You can bet a few songs the King has penned will be played during the festival.
