July 5, 201411 yr All the clubs in soi 23 and cowboy were closed at 2am tonight, the army come along and closed everything, bloody spoil sports, can't they let people enjoy themselves!!!?
July 5, 201411 yr What does the law say about closing hours? Sent from my Nexus 7 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place

July 5, 201411 yr Author Don't know, don't care, ruined my night, sod the law!!! that's what you get when you try to wait around till things close and get a deal... I was in glow bar in soi 23 with my wife, just dancing and drinking, walked down cowboy when we got kicked out of glow bar and cowboy was closed too! It's hardly encouraging people to come to Thailand when you close everything at 2am...

After all, you can't bust a move when your gout's playing up

It's hardly encouraging people to come to Thailand when you close everything at 2am... well sorry the enforcement of the law ruined your evening....start earlier. As as I can remember, Soi Cowboy always closed at 2am, Usually Thonglor made the sweep but they have handed over the reins to the A Team. Anyway, my experience (past) has been that rarely anything good happens at 2am, especially in hindsight the next morning

Not a happy bunny this morning...
July 5, 201411 yr Popular Post You will get over it mate. Just drink faster next time.... Don't blame the law because the scene in which such clubs operate does not find it trendy to start a wee bit earlier. And don't blame the Army because from what I can tell they are doing a stellar job cleaning up the whole place.. .A few weeks ago if you remember we were under 10pm curfew so 2 am must seem like a big improvement.

I wonder how many of them have bribed a Thai police officer after being breathalysed or greased a palm to make an immigration issue disappear.

Had it occurred to you that there might be a reason for that? As in, what they SAY they're doing isn't what they're doing at all? They've censored the press and the media, banned protests, and have just declared - wait for it - that populist policies will be outlawed in future. Then in the next breath, they've announced that in order to get the conomy moving again, they're asking banks to slacken their criteria to make it easier to extend loans to those who currently don't qualify for them. Laughable Remember subprime by any chance?

Adjust your watch so you can make yourself believe it is 4 or 5 in the morning instead of two.

My Thai wife has started to think for herself, she questioned the soldier why the club was closing at 2am, although she was drunk and enjoying herself dancing to the music. I was in Hanoi two weeks ago and the police come along at midnight and closed all the bars, this is not much different and Vietnam is a communist country, wake and smell the roses, this is not freedom!!!

I understand your feelings : nobody likes to have things closed when you are having a good time. Have a good morning. Sun is up in an hour and a half.
July 5, 201411 yr Author I'll bet they're still drinking away in Soi 22 right now. The last time I went there it was dead, maybe need to check it out!

I understand your feelings : nobody likes to have things closed when you are having a good time. Have a good morning. Sun is up in an hour and a half. Yes, it's time for bed now, but I'm watching Holland vs Costa Rica in my apartment, so nearly time for bed.
July 6, 201411 yr I think you will find the law of the land is being enforced, due to a thing called the coup, the law is that all entertainment establishments are to be closed by 02:00. Anything after that has to be requested through the correct channels, before the coup I think it was the good old graft 'law' being enforced.
July 6, 201411 yr Not to sound selfish but I like the 2am closing. I am usually drunk by 1:30, but stay around because it's open. 2am perfect for me , get drunk and home early enough to wake up for work. Though can see how it would not be so good for tourists who are use to opening times being till early mornings

Be grateful you don't live in Tokyo it's illegal to dance in clubs after midnight even if it's just to a bit of Elvis.
July 6, 201411 yr Many of the clubs that are popular among the expats are open very late. Or open all night.

July 6, 201411 yr Author be funny if they bring back the 10pm curfew................. Luckily enough I'm out of here on Thursday and I won't be back for another 9 months!
