george Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Nana Disco to close its doors on Friday Nana Disco or Angels Disco as is its proper name, has been on the way down for years, dying a very slow death and its demise is analogous to a lame mule being put out of its misery. I hate to sound cruel but I have to say that I am NOT sad to see it closing. I upset the owner big time a few years back when I wrote that the introduction of an entry fee would be the beginning of the end. He responded by threatening to kill me, the charmer. Well, what I said way back then has turned out to be right. With the competition in the freelancer / late night sector of the market too hot to handle, Nana Disco will close its doors at the end of this month and become yet another Bangkok venue consigned to memory. A party will be hosted for the retirement of the owner on Friday, July 31st. Entrance and drinks are FREE for everybody while stocks last. -- stickmanbangkok.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animatic Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 (edited) Nana Plaza or Nana Disco? Ah yes the disco, stuck in a nose once and said No payee to visiteee bye bye. Now theNana Plaza is a landmark, or landmine depending on your western sensibilities. ~It has some of the best people watching in the world IMHO. Park yourself with a beer at a bar near the entrance and you will see an amazing cross section of humanity in all it's insanty walk by, glide, sidle, shuffle, stagger, meander, sneak, and essentially bounce, down the way, right under your nose.

cobra Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 (edited) Another fire trap gone, But more importantly is the fate of the corner niche "Love Lounge" bar, or to that effect. (near the elevators), Nothing says romance like smashed cock roaches on the bar wall that never get cleaned. But the outside Golden, the hotel's perennial cash cow and premiere people watching venue will never go away by sheer virtue of, Location, Location, Location.
