One of Pongsit's best songs imo. Sad....

Happy Birthday John Densmore. A great drummer from one of the greatest bands. Their most tender song, imo.

Me thinks the serial petitioner is too late. Walking past the Police Hospital, i heard the sounds of chinking glasses, laughter and Bob and friends wafting down from a window above, I looked at the date, December 1st, and then I understood.

After the Thai and Israeli governments cut out the middle men, Thai workers have to pay only 65000 baht in labour fees to work in Israel. Previously they had to pay well over 100,000 baht. As banks will not accept land documents such as sor bor kor as collateral, the workers often have to turn to loan sharks to find the money to go. With the high interest due on these loans, workers often spend more than one year out of their five year contract, paying off the loan. Some background to the influx of Thai labour in Israel. https://www.ft.com/content/9ddbdee8-c566-47b1-b514-b3ad6c45f641

The government will act because this will damage Pheu Thai badly if left unattended to.

No, I was thinking how similar its riff was to the song I paired it with. Some lovely lead guitar in the second half of Carla's song below. https://youtu.be/OGzvgDLzxRk?si=6TRmVVXN-_O-M48c

So good.

Glad to see us wanna be DJs have got our old thread back. I had a look at Teak Door Thailand whilst this site was down. God, the language is foul over there, it's as if the posters are all on crack or fentanyl.

Recorded only three years ago but old time music so I put it in this thread.

Bit of music trivia, Dave Dee was a Wiltshire policeman before turning to music full time. In April 1960, he was one of the policemen who arrived at the scene of the taxi accident that killed Eddie Cochran and injured Gene Vincent. Some great bands in the early-mid 60s. Used to love singing along with this.

Nina has quite a sense of humour. Time for some German seriousness .

Anyone who supports Hamas is a fool, misguided or evil. Out of 300,000 supporters of peace yesterday, how many called for the extinction of Israel? But in the clip above of Gumbys, the language was foul, very very few women present, ( not stupid enough), plus cries of ' No black in the Union Jack' rang out. Yes, no soldiers from the Commonwealth died in the two world wars. Sue Ellen, send these morons on the first plane to Rwanda please

The cult of hate in action. Gumbys spoiling for a fight.
