Aey taking on the stage! Bravo! |
Not much to say really, but this was another highlight from our Thailand-trip. This wouldn't have happen if it wasn't for my good friend and spiritual brother Satawat Metanee, singer, actor and teacher - and also son of Sombat Metanee. Satawat, or Aey as he's called, mentioned to me that he would participate in a concert, Gentlemen Concert: Man and Love at the Pridi Bhanomyong Institute, and that his father would perform also! So without any other thoughts I booked our trip so we could see the concert!
This was kinda the best bonus I could get! I'm there to meet Aey, but if he could introduce me to his father that would be fantastic! The concert was great by the way, and a perfect ending of a very long and sweaty day (me and Tong visited Sompote Sands earlier that day!). A classy, funny (even for us not knowing the language) concert and it was extra fun that so many came to us afterwards and started talking. We felt very welcome! I'm sure I will end up on every of these concerts if I one day move to Thailand.
There was several very good singers, Aey of course - and some gentlemen I just can't remember the names of! I have the program somewhere, but I can't find it right now. Sombat still had a strong and powerful voice and it's amazing to see him perform! When I got the opportunity afterwards to meet him my first thought was the he was a big teddy bear, very soft and friendly. Just like his son :)
Sorry for the blurry photos, but it was dark in there and afterwards it was so much emotions, so exciting that it was hard taking really steady photos!
