Another long weekend? We must have done something special. Bangkok is kicking off another weekend with live music from the easy tunes of M2M in the Thunderdome to punk from Attrition at local live music spot Speakerbox. It’s also World Lindy Hop Day, and the People of Ari have you covered with six events across two days. It’ll be wild, and it’ll probably be wet, but the weekend is coming.
