Is there any place in Bangkok with a Celtic music session? Also happy to get together to play bluegrass and old time music. I'm moving to Bangkok on Jan. 8, 2011, and would love to find some people to play with, especially a fiddler.

I play fiddle well enough that the others at sessions seem to put up with me, and what tunes I know are mostly Irish. I might be in Bangkok for little while, and would love to play. Any luck? Are you still around?

Yes! Still here, still here...
I've met up with just two people so far, both Irish. One has left, and the other is a mandolin player who spends most of his time up north, so I haven't heard from him in a while. So you're a fiddler?? I would really like to get a weekly session going in town. I hear that there used to be one, but not any more.
I'll PM you in a bit...
