Farewell to the Frogs

The Frogs are a punk - rock band here in Vientiane featuring teachers from school Dirk (Science teacher) and Eric (elementary French) on Bass and sometimes Graeme (elementary Grade 5 on drums).  Last night they played at O'Grady's Irish pub  for the" End of the World Tour" as Dirk is moving to a school in Belgium next year.  It was a fun night - lots of dancing - and prolific sweating in the heat.

It was another good example of being in an International school.  I was drinking Beer Laos, dancing to songs from the sex pistols and B52s (and an INXS classic as well), played by musicians from The Netherlands, France, Ireland and Laos and chatting with the elementary principal (Australian, with a German wife and sons studying in Belgium) about his planned vacation in Germany and sailing off the Turkish coast.
