Chasing Thailand: Some kid named Martin Garrix

On May 15 I saw an EDM DJ named Martin Garrix. It was the day after his birthday. He had just turned 19. I went with some Thai friends and had a blast. We went to an Italian restaurant for dinner before the concert. I had a pizza with olives and pepperoni and it was awesome. I ordered a beer before my pizza came. When the pizza came I ordered a second beer. Then a couple more waiters came by and ask me if I wanted another beer. To the first I said, "It's already being taken care of." To the second I said, "No thank you. I am ok." The next thing I know I have three beers in front of me. After five months, I am not surprised at this. Luckily I love beer, so it was no problem.

We left the Italian place and bought some beers from a vendor. I bought two more and my friends got a few. They couldn't drink all of their beers so they gave them to me. Naturally, I accepted. Then we went into the concert. I don't remember the first few DJ's. The music all sounds about the same to me anyway, but it's all nice to dance to (I guess that is the point of Electric Dance Music). Personally, I didn't think Martin Garrix was that great. The Bassnectar concert I went to a few years back was way better (although I think that is a different genre). Afrojack in April was also better.

All I know is that after we took tequila shots and had a few more beers I was pretty lit and just wanted to dance. As a white person, I tend to stick out. Often when I go to the club or to a concert, people want to say hello and ask me where I am from and take pictures. We took a lot of group pictures with random people. Someone even licked my face.

I woke up the next day, safe, alone, in my own bed, and covered in paint.
