On stage they wear just underpants.

If it's not a go-go bar, what do they do on stage in their underpants?

stand around looking bored, talk to each other, take calls on their mobiles - in other words the same as most of the "go-go dancers" in most of the other "go-go" bars in BKK, so I suppose it is a go-go bar after all!

Thanks for the clarification. Strange that the bar turns into a disco afterwards ... but then again, this is Thailand! I've gotten accustomed to the lack of body movement amongst the so-called dancers on stage. Just as long as I can see some skin I'm content. And underpants are at least better than having them pose in street clothes like they do in most of the Saphan Khwai bars.

After one visit, I can tell you the skin I saw would certainly not have me return.

That way they get round the mandatory 1 a.m. closing time and can stay open much later.

Legal closing times are the same for go-go bars and discos.

What they've figured out, though, is how to maximize the use of a piece of real estate: there is no demand for a go-go bar open past 1:00 am, and there is no demand for a disco before 1:00 am.

Now they just have to figure out how to use the facility during the day. Maybe open a restaurant in it.

Never knew that. But is that just a zoning thing? In the zones, you must close at 1:00 am. Outside you can stay open later?

Back from KL. Great weekend. Didn't even make it to "Blue Boy" this time as found lots of willing talent on Gayromeo and had all night company both nights. KL boys very horny.. so excited to be invited to 5 star hotel and cant get out of their clothes quick enough. No problem with boys having real instant erections and keen to get into hot sex.. I need a rest !

Sunday night, decide to hit the bars on Soi Twilight. Went into Hotmale and all I can think of after seeing the boys on stage, I think its one big show fron the boys who's having the most tattoos on their bodies. Nearly everyone of them have tattoos on their body and I mean lots of tattoos! I am not against tattoos but its way too much. There wasn't any good lookers working too. Left the bar after about 15mins and decide to head to Jupiter 2000.
Its a nice change after Hotmale. Met one mamasan who used to be a waiter and I offed him before. Surprisingly, he still remember me. Many handsome guys. Can't take off my eyes off nbr12 but unfortunately, mamasan told me he's top. Was givien the numbers of the boys who are bottom. Had a difficult time deciding on which boy to off...#8, #27 and #34....end up with 27.
Very good bottom and sure enjoys getting fucked and fingered.
I really wish I had more nights to off the other 2 boys, especially #34. The show at Jupiter is among the best I've seen among the gay bars. Very good cheorography and I like the latin songs mimed by the katoey very much...... not like some stupid katoey jokes at the BBB group, jokes which I can't find any humour in it.:p

You are being far to kind with your "good choreography" comment. Bless you.

SAPAN KWAI brs-it has ben told recenly and I can only confirm-had not ben there in the nighttime since the last century. Besides Charrm-ming they are now all in the dead-end soi toward the Embassy HTL-the side soi to main road which used to have Midnite/Apache has been closed off-a big high-rise condo-this took me quite a while to realise. The 7/8 bars you see first are all karaOK-and besides the old names of Adam and STAX they seem all convinced now that farang simply dont like KaraOK and its fruitless to win them for it. @ 21.30 (they open all at 21.00) C-ming was just organising to get open-and many lads were still at the barbers doing their new hairdo. Many have fulltime dayjoibs-at least in the past-so be careful with overnites.
The only remaining gogo is Be Hi-in the deadend soi. Doorstaff well used to memory seeking farang and being told were what was...Here the gogo was also stand-still, 12 boys present, 3 on stage. Drinks are 140 bt-small glasses. Indeed; there is approach-the ost daring half child sat beside me, was overpolite and tried to start some talk. I was wary at first-but no waiter appeared greedily to ask about a new drink-and no other pressue at all either. This was indeed fairly common in old-days SK bars-the boys would present themselves to you-or simply old style Thai ''kreng jai''=you dont let someone sit alone. Anyway-when his turn for stage came on he must also have acted as spy/or only angkrit speaker- as 2 strictly lao-only lads came over. When I left there were 5 farang and 2 Thai-these were also politely approached.
The gods understood me: a free red bus appeared in minutes-with that cocky, but o-so gay look kreung conductor-who made his way all across the crowded bus to ask if I was sure about it-bus staff even gets to know me. A big smile from a black clad lao lad who then appeared beside me and threw himself in close contact at any stop or corner-more smiles-but he did not get off with me. The lad at se=hwen-always extremely shy-then started a chat-up, whispered that sexy words: where you come from?''-finally grasped that farang dont like anything in plastic bags-and whispered when his shift was finished. Amazing Thailand-it always comes when you dont expect it.

-- Today, (24th.), forenoon, walking through Soi Twilight I saw that FRESH BEACH BOYS., (wch. used to be my fav. bar thereabouts.), is being gutted and worked-in by some internal re-decorators etc..

-- Today's, (05th.), Spectrum supplement - II:14, 05-11 apr. - of the BKK. Post. 'paper. has an 'investigative.' article about where wimmen go in search of male companions, and focused mainly on the well-known Soi Twilight, (off Suriwong rd.),.
- The 'investigator.' went to one bar, un-named, that apparently did not feature a 'bold' show but only muscular a go-go dancers; and from the M'san. learnt the flg.:
1.- 'Money is their God; the boys will do anything to please their customers;
2.- 'The boys receive reg. checks for HIV./AIDS. and are not allowed to work until after such Certs. will have been rec'd.; all the boys are clean and thus no fears of picking-up any disease;
3.- 'The boss treats all his staff like family as he knows that an happy boy will give better svce.; several of our boys have been with us for several yrs.'.
-- Possibly the full article can be down-loaded from the BKK. Post's web-site?

-- There is also a side article about SWING. - S*x Workers IN Group - off'ce. in P. Pong 1. - and its efforts to bridge the divide between BKK's Finest and the workers etc. etc..

-- E&OE. as the above is reported. -- Bibi. --

-- Today, (06th.), walking abroad I saw the flg.:
1.- In Soi Than Tawan - off Suriwong rd. - the former JP. Karaoke Bar, nr. to TAWAN CLUB, is being re-furbished and looks like it'll be another drink's-type bar;
2.- In the small & sub-soi off Soi Naras Thiwat 1 - right by SOLID BAR - the former ALEC BAR is in the hands of builders: presently the inside has been ripped-out completely.
