Rain World Tour Bangkok June 2 -Pt 1




This was my first Rain concert ever.

But for most non-local fans I met in Bkk this concert was at least their second if not the uptenth time for the hard core ones (...somehow I'm not surprise). I've learnt to accept that when it comes to Rain, there are other fans whom are more crazier, daring and bolder than I am.

The atmosphere was unlike any other. Fans start queuing since 2pm at least. I was at the stadium about 4:45pm. Trying to act brave for my sake and also Angah (whose worried sick for my safety). Imagine after 10 years of marriage, his spouse started acting like highschool girl whose so into Bi Rain and now dragged the whole family to Bkk so she could go and watch his concert. (shock!) Indeed I've gone bonkers!!

I was scared shit alone in the taxi, on the way to Arena Impact (stadium). But I acted brave bcos I don't want Angah to worry. If he had his way, he will take the kids together in the taxi and drop me at the stadium but I refused bcos it will be too much of a hassle plus the stadium is quite far according to the hotel staffs. But the taxi took the highway (which luckily I ubderstood when the taxi driver told me in 'his English' that I had to pay the toll). So there I was at the stadium, 45mins early. But everything went well. Some of the girls from Rain Msia were early too and we found each other.
Arena Impact can accommodate about 11,000pax and it looks like 3/4 of the audiences were already there, at that hour and the concert was suppose to start at 8:00pm. There were many booths being set up and my favourite is of cos the Korean Air.
Seeing the long cue, I gave up searching for my entrance gate. I've decided to just go with flow and don't stress myself too much. If I have to be at the far behind, so be it. At least I get to hear him and soaked in the concert atmosphere. It was hot and humid. But nobody seemed to mind. I was sweating profusely and I'm wearing white!!! Clever. That's the trouble of trying to look cute instead of practical. Anyways, I'm happy to say that I've collected quite a number of freebies during the concert and managed to purchase Rain's World Tour t-shirt and calendar. The tshirt was totally a last minute thingy. Right after the concert ends, I found, well actually saw the booth which sells the concert merchandise. After contemplating between the army metal tag and the tshirt, I opted for the shirt bcos luckily I remembered that my skin is allergic to metal other than gold or silver.



Oh yeah, last but not least I had a fake tattoo on my neck. It was made by one of the girl from Rain Msia cloud. Its the star (just like Bi Rain in his I'm Coming MV).

Hello. Excuse me just a question. I heard talking about Thailand here. I'm about going on holiday to Asia. I would like some info on Pattaya in Thailand. I would know if It's a good place to go with family or should I choose another place? Thank You so much.

Hi Anon, Pattaya is actually quite far fr Bangkok. I went about 3 years ago to Bangkok wt my family including 2 children age 9 & 5 years old and we had so much fun almost everywhere. I heard there is a political unrest currently going on in Thailand. But mayb it won't affect Pattaya too much bcos it is not the capital city, but you should be wary in case you cannot get in or out from the airport. And that should be a concern especially if u r travelling wt kids.
