People watching the sound check could be heard cackling at his predicament as bugs landed on his clothes.
The footage shows how the insects, which have a considerable wingspan, congregated around the band and failed to budge.
They chose to leave the small audience alone in Buri Ram, Thailand, on Saturday (29 Jun).
It’s believed the bugs were attracted to the stage by the spotlights, as reported on What’s The Jam.
Siwkrathok, 29, revealed that they mobbed him for up to 40 minutes before shedding their wings and dispersing.

The singer said: “Spectators started to show up then, and I had to keep singing.
“I think three to four termites ended up in my mouth. They tasted oily.”
