Department of Mutual Support:  Friends of LengPleng

As you may be aware, Little Susie now has a sister venue, Stories, upstairs on St 174 near St 51.  After some experimentation with days and hours they now have a new working schedule for live music and food.

    

 

 

Being a Friend of LengPleng is open to venues, acts, and even private individuals; if you value the service we provide please consider assisting us financially.   For a modest contribution ($25 for three months, $40 for six months, $75 for 12 months), you get the logo of your choice into the weekly email and onto the weekly wrap page, and an automatically click through to a page on our website for further information, photos, videos and so on – we like to think of it as an alternative to Facebook.

We also pay special attention when you have a good story for us – an upcoming event or an artist you wish to highlight.  Email gigs@lengpleng.com for further details or bail up Scoddy wherever you see him.

 

Steve Porte Photo of the Week

Steve has been in Siem Reap for a week delivering supplies to the displaced people in camps on the city’s outskirts.  “The camps are emptying out as people head home, hopefully for good. This has been a week of inspiring community spirit; businesses, local communes, barang and Khmer all giving of their time and resources to support these displaced people.”
