n210mp Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 damn, i was hoping for a satirist. Thanks for your senses of humour, gave me a good long belly laugh, you know the one where you really are tickled pink sort of thing. On a serious note though I think I will be getting off the back end to go to the show in pattaya, ever since i watched the tribute video for george harrison I have found a liking for the Indian musicians especially Rav Shankar and his daughter, brilliant artists IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone confirm that they are the same entity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digbeth Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 For ThaiTicketMajor, the Major Cinema Boxoffice at the Avenue Complex on 2nd Road, where Villa Market is, also can make bookings and (I think) issue tickets. Otherwise the nearest official TTM office is in Central Bangna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise the nearest official TTM office is in Central Bangna Thanks for the clarification. But the question was what role Tesco Lotus plays. Can they sell tickets or are they just a payment center, like 7/11? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't the yellow poster only for the sitar show? Yes. The concert will be a mixture of light classics and jazz-rock-fusion. I assumed that's what you were referring to by the term "jazz show". Correct me if I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goatfarmer Posted June 13, 2015 Author Share Posted June 13, 2015 Interview with Chatterjee published yesterday in Z news: “I don’t want to unlearn anything completely and let go off my roots. You have to sort of split your personality, which means that you are one person when you’re going on a classical stage and another when you’re playing fusion, crossover music with a band,” he explains. http://zeenews.india.com/entertainment/music/life-is-music-know-what-sitar-virtuoso-purbayan-chatterjee-has-to-say-about-music_1612656.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
