Did they really turn the music off in the soi, mmm maybe that was on May 22nd when all the bars were closed because patong was too quiet 555555 but seriously manyve they had a power supply problem for a short time or something like that

Hi!

Just came back from Phuket on Monday. Sunday on Bangla was pretty dead. Friday and Saturday was good with loads of people and girls. Soi Eric is fun as usual. And no they did never turn out the music when i was there.

Off course Sunday was pretty death. It was Vicha Buddha day or whatever they call it. Normally they had to close.

ARe you in phuket at the moment?

No. Left Phuket Saturday 21 May. Some ladies told me they did not have to work on Sunday 22nd: Visaka Puja Day (Budha day: birth, enlighthment and death of Budha). Bars closed, they had to go to the temple.

Soi Eric had the football over the sound system when the FA cup final was on, but I have heard music blasting away other nights. Yes it is quiet at the moment.
