Impact Arena - Eric Clapton

[ToddWeston]

I was looking at the seating plan for Eric Claptons upcoming concert.

The premium seats are 6000 baht and go down to 1000 baht, my confusion is when I look at other concerts the seating changes so I can figure out what's a good seat/section.

Yeah, stay at home and dont bother.

The accoustics in that place suck, its like being in a barn.

Yet another past his sell by date dinosaur roaming these shore to top up the pension plan.

Good man, stay at home and listen to Derek & The Dominoes with a decent single malt.

Lets remember Slowhand at his best,

Thanks Guys

I hadn't thought about the acoustics part yet as the floor plans confused me with every single concert changing and some offering standing room only etc.

The barn comment put me off right away on the place, I think I'll take a miss and avoid disappointment @ 6000K a ticket I can certainly download every song and album he ever did

Thanks again.

If you want consider a better concert, he plays on 4.3. in Singapore, well flight and hotel will top up the costs, but the location is definitely better than "the barn"...

Todd, dont let me put you off, go and enjoy yourself, accept it for what it is.

I have been to his last two concerts here, the previous one 2007/8? was better than his last visit.

Too be honest, these days he doesnt play the sort of music I want to listen to.

However as one who is starved of live/decent music in this cultural musical backwater I tend to go along and enjoy it for what it is.

Please dont tell me the bloody Scorpions will be in town, the mrs will be dragging my sorry ass off to endure that.

I thought the last show was smoking.

Blue bird special on Khao Phat Gai b20?

Wheelchair access to front row for rich farang?

A few years ago, I went to an Elton John concert at the Singapore Indoor Stadium - the acoustics then were terrible. I also went to the EJohn concert at the Impact Arena - better acoustics than SIS.

Of course, neither venues is a touch on the arenas in the US.

Nevertheless, living in TH, I will always attend concerts by those I like - my idols, live in TH, are rare experiences not to be missed.

Now, if only Paul McCartney would come this way ....
