Singha Loud! presents… August 14, 2008

8pm - WEDNESDAY, August 27, 2008
@ Public Assembly
70 N. 6th St (btw Berry & Kent)
Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

After an all out, over the top Singha concert in NYC featuring Assanee Wassan last month, which was possibly the largest gathering of Thai nationals this city has seen, the beer bottle cracks open again for another live band party. Only this time turning to NYC locals for a good time.

Singha Loud! takes a step back from the inter limelight and goes underground to quench its thirst for musical enlightenment. August 27th brings together 3 bands from 3 worlds for a clash of audio decibel levels too gigantic to constrain. In other words, it’s going to be loud.

Singha Loud!

Starts at 8pm with DJ Hayden Honey crunching the cdj with Asiatic indie tunes and DJ Mar Galo switching it up with 60s style garage and fuzz to get you amped up for the first act.

9pm - Madam Robot & the Lust Brigade wails up a mash up of spacey garage that clams with desire and rage like a bender machine going to town on your mom’s new boyfriend.

10pm - Red Ghost Revolt takes the stage only to slam your face with their wall of well crafted jingly shoegaze rock fronted by a vocalist belting out with pipes even Bob Mould would be jealous of.

11pm - The Hsu-Nami will walk on stage and have you scratching your head to their peculiar form of fantasy rock lead by a Chinese instrument called the “erhu” that you sometimes see old Chinese dudes playing in subways, but backed with a balls out metal outfit pushing the limits of melody and speed. The galloping bass lines, double kick drums, thrashing guitar and fierce howls of the erhu paints a picture of what Genghis Khan would bang his head to while conquering central Asia…if there were such a thing as amplifiers back then.

12am - its not over yet …more guest DJs and possibly a surprise guest band is plotting to emerge from the alcohol fumes and sweat of nighttime fun.

be there!

Take the L to Bedford and walk down N 6th until you see the Singha!

update!! this just in, Poison Ivy League will slip into the midnight slot knocking you into tomorrow with their costume adrenaline pop punk tunage!!

Asanee-Wasan “Lion at Heart” world Tour June 9, 2008

Singha turns 75 this year and to celebrate they’re going international, rock star style. Embarking on a world tour with a Thai duo rock group any ’80s kid with a cassette player in Bangkok would know. Asanee-Wasan, cited to be the first musicians to manhandle Thailand’s mainstream music industry by writing and performing their own music. Who’da thunk!

Over two decades later they would become Singha’s chariot around the world as they visit Thai expatriates playing free concerts spanning the globe from Sydney, London, Los Angeles and New York.

June 8, 2008 they hit New York landing at the recent music hall Terminal 5. Two hours before show time a line of Thai expatriates line the block coming from all over the east coast to pump their fists with comrades who sing the same remembered songs in the same language. In case anyone forgot the lyrics, they were also projected on a screen behind the stage forming probably the largest karaoke party known on this side of the hemisphere.



Terminal 5, capacity of 3,000. sold out.

Michael Jackson once wrote about Singha. He wrote in the World Guide to Beer, “Thailand has a quite dry, hoppy, flavorful lager, Singha, to go with its delicately spiced foods.” Believe that.

He left us last Sunday, but will forever talk to the minds of new beer sales people with our office copy of “The New World Guide to Beer,” which isn’t going anywhere.

Cars and Girls August 30, 2007

…equals people drinking Singha! The girls set up shop in a car showroom which had about five or six “really expensive cars” in it. Within the two hours from 7pm to 9pm, Singha Beer, Duvel, and some new gin label were sucked down bone dry. Remember kids, don’t drink and drive!
