[from the home of CC]

coinciding with the holiday this will be a busy venue. Went to my first one in 2014 (different locale) I try to check them out due to the laid back crowd (usually) and mellow vibe. This being 2020 who knows? but I do expect the wave in from BKK..

My first glimpse at Thai humor 1995...Clerk stops my transaction to point at a man walking by with ankle high trousers and says loudly "

เขากำลังเดินในน้ำท่วม" everyone in the shop starts giggling...rough translation "he's walking in a flood ".

 

Back to the subject of Jazz in Thailand.   I've noticed a few Philippine  or Japanese house bands over the years playing in tourist venues who are really good  .  This Jazz festival  was always under the radar for me but It sounds like a good reason to head down to Hua Hin  for a break If I ever make it back to Thailand.
