Back in the old location by the look of things. They were doing it all up (Sound Club) when I passed by there last week.

 

KhunPer probably still sleeping after two nights of closing and opening parties. ????

???? – actually too crowded for me at the opening night, so just stayed outside – sorry, please receive my apologies for having other tasks to do Sunday and Monday, instead of immediately posting upgrade photos of the nightlife here...???? – but I did peek inside for a short while last night...????

Yes, it's the good old location, but with only the front sound stage open. Sound and light quality is approved by an old audio-pro and former theatre light- & stage manager like me...????

 

Below photo is from the opening night...????

Way 2, a new nightclub

 

In Chaweng Beach's Green Mango-area a new night club named "Way 2" will open next Saturday. It's built in the parking lot behind former Black Club. The manager in Green Mango Club told me that they seems to be aiming on the same Thai-audience as former Black, with an indoor airconditioned venue.

Wow, excessive use of adjectives (chic, ubercool, sensational, celebrated etc) in that promo! I'll use this as an example (How to overdo descriptions)  for my English language students! ????

500 baht to run 5km is expensive. Might as well do 10km or 21km or not bother.

It's around $15 for 5 kilometers and $25 for 21 kilometers – for comparison the fee for Boston Marathon 2023 was for example over $200 (The entry fee for qualifiers was $225 USD for United States residents and $235 USD for international residents). Amsterdam half marathon fee is €38 or around 1,400 baht...????

As with almost all these run events, you're getting an event t-shirt included in your entry fee - check the registration it has a section for entrants to confirm their shirt size.

When I checked the Amsterdam-fee, the T-shirt is extra and that is relative expensive, €30, which equals almost 1,150 baht. So an Amsterdam Half Marathon-fee including t-shirt is up in level of 2,500 baht – Samui Half Marathon seems affordable in comparison...:whistling:
