 Welcome back to Koh Phangan Island News, the most negative ;-) and most controversial web site reporting the awful truth about the Island Of Madness, formerly also known as Koh Phangan Paradise Island.
Finally, after a few light years have been passed by, our team of non-corrupted douche bags at Koh Phangan Island News Headquarters managed to check out the most recent hype on Koh Phangan Island.
The Jam Bar – Live Music on the Beach!
The Jam is located directly at the beach along the west coast of Koh Phangan Island in the Hin Kong area, between Wok Tum and Srithanu, just after the bridge. You won’t be able to miss it as there are tons and tons of motorbikes parked next to the road and some red lights & signs try to grab your attention.
The Jam became quite famous here on Koh Phangan Island and has developed over the last few months into a meeting point for musicians from all other the world. The Jam offers a full stage setup with drum kit, electric guitar, bass, synthesizer, bongos and open mics. Everyone is welcome to perform at the live jam sessions on their open stage and please feel free to bring your own instruments and do not hesitate and join this awesome live music event.

 First of all a happy, lovely & totally wicked Sawadee Pee Mai to all Koh Phangan lovers out there.
April 13.th 2007 is indeed an extraordinary special day on Koh Pha-Ngan Island, the hidden jewel, in the Gulf of Thailand. So … it was time again for another celebration of the world famous Songkran Festival here on Koh Phangan Paradise Island. And also in the year 2007 lots and lots of people from all over the world finally found their way to Koh Pha-Ngan, the island of madness, to participate in a day filled with fun, smiles, tons of liquid and some usual surprises.
Though it was raining a lot that day the streets in downtown Thongsala were packed again with hundreds of bizarre life forms to celebrate the beginning of a New Year in the Thai culture. The Songkran Festival Party normally starts nice & smoothly late morning and reaches its peak around noon and then tends to create its own insanity, which perfectly fits in with the demented surroundings the island of madness, called Koh Phangan, has to offer.

 First of all a happy, lovely and awesome New Year to all Koh Phangan lovers out there!
Songkran Festival April 13th – that’s of course a day you should mark with a bright color when traveling to the island of madness, Ko Pha-Ngan, in the Gulf of Thailand. Originally Songkran means the beginning of a New Year in the Thai Culture and that’s also the reason why you hear a lot “Sawadee Pee Mai” that day, simply wishing you a Happy New Year.
Songkran also means tons of liquid! First they normally start with plain and simple water and later on that day most Songkran participants switch to other kinds of available liquid, like Chang, Singha, Heineken, Saeng Som, Vodka and Red Bull. That’s also how many Songkran reveler look late afternoon … like a drunken red bull ;-) Exactly around that time Becki normally decides to quit the show as things tend to get a bit nasty and out of control, like it most happens if massive amounts of people gather together to celebrate the let’s get fucking wasted mentality.
