Clubbing

Some of you hit the nail on the head in regards to Bubbles. I went to CM for the first time during Songkran and was baffled with Bubbles and how ass-backwards it was as far as the ugliest, sleaziest farang seemingly getting the action there. I was there with a bunch of quintessential NYC clubaddicts and we were nauseated as well as perplexed by it all, but hey TIT

I've never been to Bubbles, is a pub or disco, where is it situated? No impression of Bubbles when i'm in CM.

Disco. It's in fact the closest you can get to a Western style disco in Chiang Mai, in that they actually have a dance floor and not just wall to wall tables and chairs.

It's in the basement of the Porn Ping Tower Hotel on Charoen Prathet Road. (The road parallel to the Night bazar, in between the Night Bazar and the river). First you pass Hot Shot, a 'wall to wall tables' kind of place. Continue further until you get to the Bubbles entrance.

There's a cover charge but it gets you a coupon for one drink, and drinks cost the same as the cover anyway so it doesn't matter much.

Cheers,

Chanchao

Mandalay has a cover charge for foreigners and a farang menu and thai drink menu. The farang menu lists every drink at 300+; management making the bill calculation easy for farang.

Other discos not mentioned are Rodeo and ID4.

Went to Mandalay when it first opened and got charged the cover and the $$$$ beer price. Went a few weeks ago thinking they must have changed the farang overpricing. No they had NOT. Never again.

Hey, new guy here.

I think I can add to the list

Staying around Neimenhamin road we have

Monkey Club on Soi 9. It has a dancing area about the size of warm up where they alter between live and DJed music. The usual Thai choice of music. The outside sitting area is nice and they have accoustic music groups playing. You can barely hear the thumping of the bass from the dance hall.

Bangrak is up Soi 6 and is a much more "western" club. Great live bands, TONS of people and lots of fun (I have a few pics from last night)

I am not sure if Old School has a dance area, but it's down the Soi across from Warm UP.

for non dance clubs we have

Fine thanks, also on Neimenhamin road between Soi 7 and 9. Decent live band, great place to chill and the waitresses have themed outfits, somenights it's "naughty school girl"

The Glass Onion is a lounge in Room one across from Warm Up. This place is nice, leather seats, redwalls, a glass wall with a waterfall behind it. They play a mix of Jazz and lounge music and then some techno. It is a GREAT place to relax, it is tiny but never packed.

As for warm up, I don't like it. It's packed, it takes hours to get a drink, and since so many people pack into it and it has poor ventalation it lives up to it's name adequatly.

I usually stick to Monkey Club, Bangrak, and the Glass Onion when I am done making my lesson plans.

I have no clue about the places with the leering Farang since it isn't my scene, I perfer to be one of the few farangs and hang out with my Thai friends instead.

Btw I am looking for GOOD techno, not Numa Numa, I spent College living on a floor with 5 DJ's and not only can I not find a decent place here, the Rave scene at the full moon party sucked.
