Silk - 2 for 1 drinks

Jess writes (about Monday night):

Silk is the name of nightclub in the Bintan Lagoon resort. It was empty except for about 6 staff members and 3 girls at the bar (wrongly deemed groupies, as they turned out to be part of the band). The cover band with no audience, but us. They weren't actually all that bad...comical really...as they belted out hotel california as "coo wind in my head." Even better, they gave us one piece of paper in which we could request a song to be played. Since they obviously know it was coming from the couch with the porn fringe around it (see image on left), we refrained from picking a song that could appear as bad asian karaoke and went with no woman, no cry. The put us in our place when they broke out the bongos. haha. After that lead singer parted the porn fringe to try and convince us to come sing with them. After a long pause Donovan told her that was a no go. Instead she handed us a book of song request forms. Four Non-Blondes...some Dire Straits...then another couple came in and requested From this Moment On. We were laughing too hard to stay, besides, it kind of felt like we were on a cruise ship anyway.
