  1. Do yourself a favour and watch it, you have 6 seasons to watch. Once you get into it and know the characters it's brilliant without doubt one of the best things out.

  4. I haven't had much luck at the Chunky Monkey. I tried the 99-baht daily special yesterday- chicken rissoles with onion gravy and mashed potatoes- and it was as bland as, well, unseasoned chicken.   The only flavor came from the thick, glutenous package gravy to which a few bits of onion had been added. The chicken patty itself was totally lacking in any sort of seasoning and consequently, no taste either. On the plus side, the mash was good and the patty had been cooked properly. It wasn't dry inside, but it had an extremely smooth texture, though, which gave it a weird mouth feel. The rissoles would have been much helped by the addition of diced onion, garlic, carrot, green pepper, whatever, but most of all it needed herbs or spices. There are dozens of variations to Australian-style rissoles. There's no one right recipe, but there is a wrong way. I scraped off the icky gravy and gave the rissoles a few splashes of HP Sauce from the condiment basket. That improved them, but it didn't make them good. Bottom line: The Chunky Monkey now has two strikes against it in my book. In the near future, I'll try either the Sunday roast or the meatloaf dinner. A third strike will put it out for me as a dining option for quite awhile. That's unfortunate, as it has a convenient location and an enclosed air-conditioned dining area. It's well-lit, clean and spacious, with the background music played at a blessedly low volume and friendly service. Not many budget restaurants in Pattaya tick all those boxes. The prices for bottled beer are very low (55 baht for Leo and Chang, 65 baht for SML) and big bottles cost 79 baht. Perhaps that will be enough to attract customers who aren't concerned about bland food. However, the cocktail van across the street could give it a run for the money.

  5. Back in the day (1981) I went to this concert at JFK Stadium in Philly called "The Round Up." It started early in the morning and ended that late night. It featured Southern Rockers The Outlaws, Molly Hatchet, 38 Special, Charlie Daniels Band, Marshall Tucker and The Allman Brothers. 90,000 people were there and it was unreal. Saw Lynyrd Skynyrd at JFK in 1977- 4 months before the plane crash. Saw Blackfoot open for Judas Priest in a small venue in 80, I think? ( my ears were ringing for 3 days) Synryrd and the Allman Brothers (Seen them live 14 times) are my top faves. Don't listen to much of Southern Rock anymore, but like to every now and then.

  6. Great shots, thanks for posting. One thing that surprises me is that despite me going there for 25 years and living there for most of the last 10, I almost never recognize any of the Thai chicks in the photos posted on this board, including the other threads. I know nearly all of the BMs in the pics though. I see my friend Snowman was the entertainment in the last batch. Great guy, excellent guitarist.

  10. Just make sure your approach in chatting them up is better than yesterday, remember they were all gorgeous last night even though some looked like Ann Hegerty from 'The Chase'

  17. Maybe the website you are looking at mate? Try the actual venue website itself or official ticket sellers.. Loads of re-sell sites sell them for fortunes Edit: I just looked for you and it's officially sold out that's why they are fortunes on some sites it's completely wrong but allowed to go on the big sites buy them in bulk and re-sell at stupid money. Try the Slash Facebook page sometimes real fans sell at face value
