Lonely you've taken upon yourself to be the director of everything concerning the arrangements why don't you answer "oldfarangs" questions".

Yes I knew Monty from his original bar in Sunee in mid nineties. I think Eldorado or Jasmine might be there, I never go down that soi.
I enjoyed the old La Cage . I did go to a few but not many of the Bangkok visits. La Cage/Colonial has always been a favourite bar and even recently I asked why on the dead nights maybe they presented some classical music as an alternative. I was told there was a levy on music played in the bar, which I did not understand.
The owner mentioned 40,000 baht?????
With the music in all bars I have always contended the music played suits the bar staff and not the visitors
I also feel the same way with the venues. The music they play leave me for dead. I wonder how many others feel no connection with the tracks played.
The main reason I stop going is the music is all too new for me.f

The reason for the music in the bars is very simple and very thai.
Like everywhere else there is money to pay for copyright for public music.
The thai part : foreign pop is cheaper than thai music, which is very expensive.
I never inquired about classical.
I believe many of the bars stopped playing '(I'm bending over) The White Cliffs of Dover' in or around 1972. A lot of the bars get their music via You Tube ... so you can make requests.
