Always wondered if Sakon Nakhon would be visited by a Westerner with some fame to his name.
When I heard Eugene Hideaway Bridges was in town, I knew I had to take a road trip to Kok Si Supan.
Mr Bridges has taken out a few days from his schedule to visit a friend here.
He was out about the town last night and did a bit of impromptu performance at a nightclub near the Chinese temple.
Before meeting Mr Bridges I searched the net to see what people had to say about him:
- He's a very cool guy and a very talented musician
- Absolutely Awesome 5 Star
- Eugene is great. Come back to the UK soon
After a brief meeting with Eugene and getting some LIVE samples of his music, I am totally impressed.
His personality reflects his music, blues, soul and a little bit country.
I felt totally comfortable in his presence.
Not like some other Hollywood types I've met, snobbish, with a better than thou attitude (Elvis).
He tours internationally, Australia is a recent favorite. He's also looking forward to a trip home to New Orleans, after an R&R stopover in Singapore.
Of avoiding paparazzi, he says: "I just won't wear my hat. Without my hat hardly anyone seems to recognize me."
