Back in the day you were smarter so you knew that Khao San Rd was in the Bang Lampu area, not that many know that now unless they've looked a bit deeper. l called this video as it is to distinguish it from the Khao San side of the Bang Lampu canal.

Great Blues Bar in that area; Adhere The 13th Blues Bar. First went there in 2003/4......oh shit...that's nearly 20 years ago. My first night there I'd already had a few beers and must have got there early as I think I was 1 of about 3 people there. An American or Canadian guy got on stage and knocked out a perfect rendition of Rory Gallagher's acoustic version of As The Crow Flies (off the Irish Tour album). It's a great song and the guy nailed it. I've seen a few different guys and bands playing over the years and all have been very talented musicians.

Although I did also a lot of walking around in Banglamphu, even had the chance to visit the corrections museum next to the Rommaninat Park. Last time I walked through Khaosan road was 7 or 8 years ago and yes it was mayhem. I’ll guess we r now to ‘old’ for that specific road.

Thanks for the great filming , things have not changed that much which is what i liked about this part of the Banglamphu , so much prefer the old town than the shinny skyscaper modern area bits. Back in late 80's to 90;s, we always used to stay in the New World hotel which is now a very pricy Nouvo City hotel. The rooms were very large and spacious that overlooked the canal. What a great place that was. The little shack next to the bridge was great for some food & drink, believe it is still there but a lot more spruced up now. Around the corner from there in the next soi there was a award winning Thai steet food place with seating in the street , the chef with a wok & open fire, now looks like its gone and a large hotel there. I also used to wander down to the river side fort sometimes . Thanks for bringing back some very happy memories of times gone by.
