Welcoming all from distant lands or nearby sois, Bangkok’s party scene is always thriving and surviving, with everything from pop-anthem worship and degenerate underground beat-stomps to bawdy meat markets. In a post-coup world things have been a little quiet, but things are rumored to be picking up here and, quite possibly, there!
