GuestHouse Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Can anyone who's in Chiang Mai tell me if Chai's Blues House is still in business? I've leave coming for the whole of December and will be visiting CM, I'm hoping Chai is still strumming but can't find any up to date information on t'internet. Neither the Chai's Blues House website nor facebook page have been updated for months so I'm fearing the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elektrified Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Boy is not Chai! From reading the posts, I don't believe anyone said he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just_Elaine Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 (edited) Last year, we saw Chai at Boy Blues Bar quite a few times. You can probably ask there. They are all normally very helpful. For those of you who went to the opening, how was it? Edited November 2, 2011 by just_Elaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huli Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I heard of Boy's Blues place for quite a while but it was shut up. Tonight my wife and I went to the new Boy's Blues Bar in the center of Kalare Market and I really enjoyed myself. Boy is a real happy Thai, and can he ever make his electric guitar sing! Thanks to Thai Visa for telling me about it. I had a way better time than going to some girlie bar with a too-loud CD. Check it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elektrified Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 I went there on the opening night but got there too early I guess. Seems like they have to wait until the Lanna dance/music show at Kalare is over before they can play music at Boy's. They were tuning up earlier on and it was really distracting the performers in the show. I guess it was about 21:30 and there still was no one at Boy's place yet. I'll go again another night but later next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just_Elaine Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 (edited) To OP .. Just fyi -- I saw a video where Chai was playing at Brasserie around the 7th of November (I think) so maybe he is around Chiang Mai. We may go there tonight if we're not too sleepy.... It's hard for us "old farts" to stay up sometimes. We went to Boy Blues Bar a couple of weeks ago. It was nice. He has different bass player and a different drummer now. They were good and they have a good location for attracting bypassers. Edited December 16, 2011 by just_Elaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brasserie is still there and not under duress at all. Strange that anyone would claim that the place is a crater now, must be someone who doesn't know where the Brasserie is.

It's fair game for someone to say that they don't like the place, but having a dirty toilet is a far cry from being cratered and out of business.

If same format, Boy and the Band played for awhile. Chai came a little before 10pm. They played for awhile, then had a female singer for 3 songs and then back to Chai, Boy and the band. It was really good and fun. Chai said he and the female singer was going to there tonight. Edited December 17, 2011 by just_Elaine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
