Not sure about the details here. I have only been in Bangkok about a year, but had a chance to see them a few months ago at a hotel disco on Soi 11. Very small venue, about 200 baht cover charge (include drink). Very fun show, all the locals seemed to know every song. Just a few hundred people.

I have a feeling there will be no cover charge, small venue and no problem for you to see these guys. But I do think it is worth while.

Actually, this time its supposed to be a big concert, like the one a month ago. I myself saw them in samui 2-3 months ago in a small place and i agree with what you say, it was worth while allthough im not their biggest fan. However, a friend of mine is on holiday in Thailand for 4 weeks and by december the 1st he will be in Bangkok, and HE really love this band. I was kind of hoping i could surprise him with a ticket for him and his girlfriend. Anybody have information on this particular concert the 1st dec?

Thanks.

nice to see, I hpe to fetch some tcike hen too, just back in BKk before.

note that IMPEK is VERY far out of town, as high as old Don Mung, but more west and has GIANT traffic probs on those busy days

can go by bus 166 from the vicotry mon, goes direcly via expressway, but doublelloops PakKred first. instruct any taxi too to get on that 2nd stage expressway too as soon as poss.

Asanee is correct. Last year I got stuck in traffic for well over an hour in a taxi on Chaeng Watana trying to get to Impact Arena. Go early.
