I talked to a girl I met in the States who had lived in Vietnam for a year. I quit my job, bought my plane ticket, and it was exactly as she described.<\/p>\n<h2>BitcoinVN News: When did you develop an interest in music and start playing?<\/h2>\n<p><b>Chris Day: <\/b>My Mom put me in piano lessons when I was 7 or 8. She had a hunch I\u2019d be good at it. As she tells it, when we went to pick up the piano (think we bought it on Craigslist or something), I kept saying <i>\u201chope you\u2019re not buying that for me because I\u2019m never playing it.\u201d<\/i> I ended up taking to it, but wanted to switch to guitar pretty early on, so I did so at around 12.<\/p>\n<h2>BitcoinVN News: You have been in Vietnam for about a decade now and have seen the rapid changes the city and society have gone through over the years. What noticeable changes have you seen in the music scene since your early days here, and how do you anticipate it evolving from here?<\/h2>\n<p><b>Chris Day:<\/b> I wasn\u2019t as plugged into the scene in my early days as I am now. I\u2019d guess that the sense of community has grown stronger. I\u2019d also say it\u2019s gotten more saturated. But with the saturation has also come some demand for something different.<\/p>\n<h2>BitcoinVN News: You also got involved early on with the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinsaigon.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">local Bitcoin community in Saigon<\/a> and have been a steady supporter from its earliest events, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinmagazine.com\/culture\/bitfilm-gears-up-for-second-annual-global-bitcoin-film-festival-1444663777\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bitfilm Festival Saigon 2015<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blockfin.asia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BlockFin Asia 2016<\/a>.

I was researching options for making regular purchases of gold, but then I discovered Bitcoin and became more interested in that instead.<\/p>\n<h2>BitcoinVN News: What are you currently looking forward to in your personal life, and what ambitions are you working to realize in the coming years?<\/h2>\n<p><b>Chris Day: <\/b>I\u2019m in a Linkin Park tribute band. I also play with the bassist and the drummer in a 3-piece band called Tape Trio. Both of those projects have some more up their sleeve that I am really excited about. My friend Adrian and I are doing duo sets around town, and it is fun jamming with him. Anything coming up with those acts excites me. I will also definitely do more original stuff, both solo and with some people in town.<\/p>\n<h2>BitcoinVN News: What is your outlook on Vietnam as a potential \u201cgreener pasture\u201d for people who are looking for a life outside their current home country? What type of personality might find Vietnam a good fit, and who will likely face a hard time adjusting to life in Vietnam?<\/h2>\n<p><b>Chris Day: <\/b>It\u2019s a great place to go if you need a retreat. Before I moved here, I was really unclear on how I wanted my life to look. I just knew that I wanted my life to change, but I wasn\u2019t exactly sure how. You might come to Vietnam, find a spot that clicks, relax for a bit, then realize what you want to do, and then go back home and implement it. Or maybe you do some training or lay the groundwork for a project here, and then go back home. Or you may find you really dig it here and stay. At the end of the day, if you leave your home country to come here, and you don\u2019t like it, you can always just go back (for the most part).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-12913 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinvn.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chris-Day-interview-.jpg\" alt=\"Beach scene in Vietnam with waves rolling onto the sand\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinvn.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chris-Day-interview-.jpg 800w, https:\/\/bitcoinvn.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chris-Day-interview--300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bitcoinvn.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chris-Day-interview--768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinvn.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chris-Day-interview--696x392.jpg 696w, https:\/\/bitcoinvn.io\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Chris-Day-interview--747x420.jpg 747w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u2014<\/p>\n<p><em>Looking forward to seeing Chris perform next at a venue near you?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Chris will be performing at the inaugural <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinsaigon.org\/inaugural-satoshi-flea-market-saigon-2024\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Saigon Satoshi Flea Market on the 28th of July 2024<\/a> at Indika &#8211; House of Curiosity.
