I arrived in Bangkok for the Crooked Tongues BBQ early in the morning the day of the party and suffered from a hard case of jet lag. After a 6 hour nap, I met up with the boys from Crooked Tongues and Ben from Adidas to go to the BBQ at 100 Rajdamri, inside the The Royal Bangkok Sports Club. It offers two good restaurants, a nice bar and an oudoors lounge area. The influences from streethorsing are obvious. One of the restaurants is called Trot Bar and the other one is an Italian restaurant called Fallabella, which name is derived from Falabella - a rare breed of miniature horses. The servers are all wearing equestrian outfits.
First thing when we arrived to the venue was getting the VIP band put on.
I also managed to get the red band intended for the underaged.
After a few Singhas, it was time for me and Ben to get a complimentary foot massage.
The CT crew had designed a bunch of sneakers specially for the event.
Here’s the Adidas x CT BKK BBQ Superskate.
The Nike x CT Dunk.
Observe my Visvim man bag and Singha on top of the display.

Thai dance show!
Dave’s and Ben’s quality meat.
It’s not easy being a photographer…
…or an acrobat.
Not only were the Singhas for free, but the most amazing BBQ too.
Lots of surf for those into that, and turf for the rest of us.
I spotted some amazing sneakers, clothes and jewellery at the party. I also saw some pieces of less quality. Found this pair of super bleached jeans with an anchor on the right back pocket and indigo stripes on the outseams. Inspiring!
I also found this denim shirt with a Mickey and Pluto screen print on the back. I bought it from a guy at the party for 500 baht and forced Dave to accept it as a gift.
After the 4500 Singhas were gone it was time for Hennessy.
Thanks a lot to Russ and the Crooked Tongues crew for taking good care of me. Hope to see you guys soon.
