PanzerJohn Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Just seen on their webite that tonight (23 Nov) is the last night for music at the Climax bar, my favourite music venue. I jsut hope the band get somewhere else quickly,(you reading this Dave?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raro Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Too bad, but predictable...I used to be a regular in the old days when it was still an open bar. Once they closed it, the noise level was no longer bearable and I never stood longer than for one drink - and this only two or three times. Never saw much audience on those occasions either...

plasticpig Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 To true, when it was an open bar. Good music, right up my street, had some great nights there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davethailand Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 (edited) Known about this for a while now, Afraid to say that they won't be coming to me. I'm happy with my new line up which has a guitarist that is new to Pattaya and they are doing fine, no need as yet to bring in any other known musicians in Pattaya. The word is that the owner of climax is having a break then they will look to reopen elsewhere. (sad thing of course is that its turning into a bloody gogo) Edited November 25, 2007 by davethailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trollster Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 This was one of my favourite hangouts on walking street. Sad to see them moveon. I was there last night so the 11/23 date announced on their website was not correct. Not sure when they will shut down but still going for now. Another go-go - already too many and the talent spread too thin - imho. Another one of my favourite rock bands - pop's all stars seem to have disappeared. I am sure someone on this thread will know where they landed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trollster Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I was at Easyriders and they said he does not play there anymore - strange - maybe I was just there the wrong night. Will go again midweek to make sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanzerJohn Posted November 27, 2007 Author Share Posted November 27, 2007 On the other side of the road from Easyriders,going south about 200 yards, by the little open air market, there's a little music bar. The band plays rock and the bassist is Nok who used to be in the Climax band, they usually know who's where and when, the often play up at Easyriders after they finish there.

Excellent place, reminds me a bit of the Climax in its heydays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 That's a real shame, my favorite place to chill out and listen to some great music. Also had a bit of a crush on the lady singer.... The location would make a good restaurant / bar though I suppose, great views of the bay out the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanzerJohn Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 Just seen on their website that they are staying open untill the sale of the bar is completed and then the owner plans to open a new Climax Bar somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
