Tawan closes at 1am, if there are enough customers sometimes on Fri and Sat nights they have 2nd show at midnight but "special '' show not guaranteed

I hesitate to call this a trip report as it's much less detailed than many, but here are my observations from a trip to Pattaya earlier in May. Typically I only frequent gogo bars - massage is not generally my thing (I'll make an exception for a stunner), and host bars are usually a last resort. I spent a week in Hua Hin, one of my favourite places to unwind, before hitting Pattaya for 10 days. The transfer was hellish, for some reason known only to herself the driver decided a route via central Bangkok was best. The motorways were gridlocked on a Friday afternoon, so instead of the usual 5 hours the journey took 7.5 hours. It will be the ferry next time for sure. In Pattaya, Boyztown was subdued with very few customers in the outside bars. Panoroma in particular was very quiet, Castro and Serene seemed to be busier. A-Bomb, one of my regular bars, was closed for a long overdue refurbishment. I was disappointed as I'd been hoping to find a lad from my last visit. I found the A-Bomb barman working as a waiter in Dreamboys, along with several of the A-bomb lads. The waiter explained a couple of other A-bomb boys were working at Cupidol, including the lad I was looking for. He headed over to Cupidol, and brought my lad over to Dreamsboys for me. Now there's good service! I caught the Dreamboys first show, which is pretty much a copy of X-Boys and BBB minus the Bboys dancers. They started with a candle show, which I thought was extinct in Thailand. The candle boy was not really my type, pleasant looking but not a stunner, but as I watched he grew on me - the waiter helpfully explained he was "number 1 big cock" in the bar. However, it was his big chunky ass that capitvated me, especially when I saw him naked later during the big cock show. The waiter was talking about a 700 Baht off fee for the show boys, plus tips of "2000 Baht up", so I didn't off him. Later in the trip I saw the Dreamboys 2nd show, they seemed to have many more boys in the big cock show who I hadn't seen previously in the bar. It was fun. I spotted an exceptionally handsome older guy who I'd offed years ago - frustratingly I couldn't remember from where. It must have been BBB, or Dreamsboys in Bangkok, I think. I had a quick grope for 100 Baht. It was pity this was my last night and I already had a boy from Dreamboys sat with me. X-Boys had a good selection of boys. I always find the staff here a bit odd, other than asking if you want to off anyone they don't seem to want to engage or help you choose a boy as they do in other bars. Maybe their English is not up to a conversation. I did off a good looking lad, I wasn't sure he was gay when I saw him on stage but he soon convinced me he was. He'd already had a few drinks, and was in fact slightly drunk. This didn't really affect his performance. in Cupidol, other than my former A-Bomb guy who I offed a couple of times, I didn't find any boys my type - but then I rarely do. I ventured into BBB several times. I'm not a fan of the way the boys are generally fully dressed. The muscular ones who do take their tops off invariably have an unimaginative tattoo in the style of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, across one pec and a half-sleeve down the arm. Twice I offed one of my regulars, a cute gay lad from Chiang Mai with an unexpectedly large cock. One evening when he wasn't there, one of the muscular guys caught my attention. He's cute but distinctive looking with a great body. He was from Cambodia, which surprised me given his build. When he worked out what I liked (which is not difficult, I'm easily pleased), he was quite the dirty devil in bed. Unfortunately his cock, while looking good when soft, never got even slightly hard and was so pumped full of fillers and silicone it was quite off putting. After my usual short time I gave him 1500 Baht. He looked at it pretty disdainfully and asked for another 500 Baht. He hadn't mentioned it earlier in the bar, but I reckoned he probably thinks of himself as one of the stars in the bar and deserving of a minimum 2000 Baht. I gave him the extra 500 without any argument as I don't want any bad feeling. I made a mental note to check prices with "star" boys in future. I don't normally discuss tips in the bar, and rarely have a problem like this - it's happened 3 times in 20 years. With the 1200 Baht charge to the bar (2 drinks at 350 plus 500 off fee), it made for quite an expensive evening. He won't be joining my list of regulars. Toy Boys is the best run bar in Boyztown. My regular waiter knows what I like and works hard to find a suitable boy for me. I offed two boys from here - one was a sightly older guy with a great body I'd offed previously. He's straight but does everything. The other was a newly arrived young lad, straight but cute as a button. He was pretty useless in bed however, lying there like a sack of potatoes. I ventured over to Sunee once when inspiration in Boyztown was lacking. Sunee is a shadow of it's former self of course, with many bars closed and those that were open had very few if any customers. I went directly to Winner, in the hope of finding a boy from my last trip in February. He was new then, and unlike the typical Winner boy he's compact and muscular. I was slightly surprised to see him still working in the bar, he didn't really seem cut out for it. He remembered me and was pleased to see me. He'd grown in confidence and his English had improved, so he was a chatty companion. He was below average in bed, but I knew that anyway, and I find him attractive enough not to mind. Overall my tally in the gogo bars was 4 new boys and 6 repeats from previous trips. Next time I'll be on the lookout for more new boys - I'll aim for a 50:50 ratio.

Yes - on one occasion in February I was sat with a boy in A-Bomb, and one by one every other boy (there were about eight) were called down to sit with customers leaving none on stage. When new customers arrived there were no boys to look at and they left immediately. Many of the A-Bomb boys don't arrive until about 9.45pm (they don't get a salary so just turn up when they please), so I would say 9pm is too early. If and when the bar reopens it will be interesting to see if the regime changes - I would expect the owner to want to maximise his new investment!

Drim, you need to get your stories straight. If you have first hand experience then please share it. But why pass on Rumors??

Drim, Can’t wait to read about you and Babe!

Daniel Thaiger Beef Burger From the article: Why it’s important: The burger truck pioneer is the epitome of good ingredients and good value. It’s also the burger of the people, scooping top honors in BK’s Readers’ Choice Awards 2018. What it tastes like: These buttery, greasy, no-nonsense handfuls of meat, cheese and brioche have gone down in Bangkok folklore. A chargrilled beef patty that’s perfectly seasoned, slices of unmelted cheddar, lettuce, tomato, grilled onions, and their signature Thaiger sauce all served between a Conkey’s brioche bun. As a combo, it’s hard to beat. Truck: Sukhumvit Soi 30/1, 084-549-0995 Restaurants: 30 Sukhumvit Soi 11, 02-255-5532 I have had at least 40 burgers from Daniel Thaiger and they were all excellent. The food is great and the trip is always well worth it. If you come to Bangkok and want to taste a good burger, give this a try!

I would also suggest taking a flight directly to Rio (GIG) versus a short layover in Sao Paulo (GRU). In the event you decide to do the short layover at GRU, allow at least 3 hours between the arrival of your flight from the USA and the departure time of your connecting flight within Brazil.

Also, some bodies, marks on the body and parts of the body make a person easily identifiable. And then there’s names being attached to these photos. Is it too much to not post any photos or identifying information in a public space unless you have the advance consent of that person? The Golden Rule (“Do Unto Others As You Would Like Others To Do Unto You”) should apply.

I ditto everything in this post, and can confirm what’s in the boldface — as it was stated to me directly on my last trip just a few weeks ago. But you always have some self-centered entitled tools who just don’t seem to care about the lives they leave behind the places they visit — as long as they get a bunch of likes on their posts. Don’t be That Guy.

There are 5 gay clubs on Patpong 2. On ground level are Dream Boy Paradiso and Screwboys. One flight up are Hot Male and Hot Male Bar, Freshboys, and Lucky Boys. Nearby just across and up a soi is Moonlight, the current reigning champion. On soi 4 off of Silom is Banana Club, Stranger Bar - the House of Drag Queens, and Jupiter - which is Moonlight’s closest competition on Patpong 1 - are two places that opened in the last month or so - Banana and Superboyz. I estimate no Club is more than 5 minutes from any other, except for Tawan, Golden Cock, Super A, and Nature Boy, which a few minutes further down Surawong and nestled close to one other.

I compete in competitions in the UK. Here most completions are in April and then again in October or early November Not sure if same applies in Thailand or not but i would imagine it’s similar around the world.

In a different thread about Lagoa started by a different poster, I ended my post as follows: I am currently in Brazil again and plan to go to Lagoa tonight. Remember, Wednesday and Friday are usually (not always) the busiest and best nights at Lagoa. My last few visits to Lagoa were disappointing. If the place is filled tonight and joyful, like it used to be in prior times, I will report back. I arrived at Lagoa tonight a little past six. There were hardly any customers or garotos. As time passed and within an hour, a few more clients and garotos arrived. Of the garotos at Lagoa tonight, there were about three garotos I thought looked pretty good until I saw one walk around acting effeminate which quickly made me lose interest in that one. Two other garotos looked nice but they were quickly snatched up by arriving clients. I stayed at Lagoa until a little past nine o'clock without engaging any garoto. There were several Brazilian friends at Lagoa tonight who I have known for about fifteen years. In between looking for garotos, we just talked about a lot of different things. My Brazilian friends commented about how Lagoa has had such disappointing nights over the past six months. Based on tonight's visit to Lagoa, I can now say that all of my visits to Lagoa during the past four trips (six months) were disappointing. On the other hand, if one likes twinks and effeminate garotos, there has not been a shortage of them at Lagoa during the same time period. To each his own.

Ahm...from what I've known, its beyond j*rk-*ff now, but yes still no p*n*tr*t**n. I'll try 2 find-out myself on my next trip, haa haa...
