They be Jammin'

Let me tell you about the music scene in Thailand....it's AWESOME.

From Reggae bands to Jazz ensembles Chiang Mai has it all. On Tuesday night Nikki and I were invited out to the North Gate Jazz club.
North Gate is about as small as a cardboard box, creating an intimate setting for listeners and band members. The large red mural behind the band immediately catches my eye, while my ears are throughly enjoying every beat. A crowd of backpackers, locals, and wanderers fill the place until it's overflowing onto the street. The atmosphere is filled with good vibes and good people...I feel so at home that for a while I forget I'm even in Thailand.

They were rocking out...didgeridoos and all.
...Of course I was getting down as well...what else would you expect me to be doing?..sitting around? Heck no!
