vinapu Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 Hopefully the pipes will be laid and the road resurfaced this time next month - in time for peak season... You surely mean " this time next year", don't you? Quote
Guest Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 The other bars have had their Cambodian boys in jeans &/or t-shirts on-and-off for the best part of a year now. So it sounds more like 360 failed to meet their part of the arrangement... How they are dressed shouldn't matter. How much money changes hands is more likely to matter. As for the drainage, I suppose the would not be digging too deep, as the pipes need to be above sea level. So any decent contractor should have the trench dug and the pipes laid before the end of the month. Fat chance of that in Pattaya. Quote
gerefan Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 On the next street, money was wasted turning Funny Boys into a open fronted host bar, which lasted about one season (if I'm up to date with progress). Meanwhile the opposite process happened at Cupidol. Are you saying Prisma Bar has closed?? Quote
vinapu Posted November 11, 2017 Posted November 11, 2017 Are you saying Prisma Bar has closed?? converted from host bar to go-go with the same name Quote
Guest Posted November 12, 2017 Posted November 12, 2017 converted from host bar to go-go with the same name Exactly. That site had the formerly excellent gogo bar, Funny Boys (going back about 5 years. Just before it closed, it was of no interest at all). They ****ed capital into the gutter turning it into an open fronted host bar, called Prisma (which I never visited) Apparently, it is now a gogo bar again. Since gogo bars need a wall at the front & a stage, with suitable seating, more capex is needed to remodel the premises. Going from gogo bar to host bar & back again costs money. Quote
vinapu Posted November 12, 2017 Posted November 12, 2017 PRISMA - It needs to be said they did good job and decor inside is definitely very modern and puts bar apart from others in the area. But they need more customers and for that they need to have an attractive stuff on duty. Quote
ChristianPFC Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 From recent visit (10nov2017), 360 degree is closed, but Kawaii is open with minor renovations! New sewers are best laid in dry seasons, so there is no rain water in the trenches during construction. With a bit of luck, we will get a new road surface as well. Quote
williewillie Posted August 18, 2018 Author Posted August 18, 2018 Yesterday late in the afternoon, there was activity at the old 360 boy bar. Lights were on and several people were inside. The bar looked like it was in good condition and not derelict but only a few seconds glance. It’s possible something is happening there. Quote
Guest Posted August 18, 2018 Posted August 18, 2018 The bar had a terrible layout. If anyone is trying to resurrect it, I hope they fix that. Quote

Travellerdave Posted August 19, 2018 Posted August 19, 2018 Seems a while since it closed, more than a year ago, which indicates the current state of business on BT. I only recall visiting once, but at the time Cupidol was the big attraction, with some really cute twinks. I hope someone makes a go of it, 360 that is. Quote
paborn Posted August 19, 2018 Posted August 19, 2018 About Cupidol, I went once and was very uncomfortable. Yes, I think the guys were cute but they were on a platform set up as if for a team photo. The first row kneeling low, the next kneeling but torsos held high and the third row standing. All I could see were faces and chests. It was very odd as I had no view of anyone. Is this the general experience, has it changed. Quote
williewillie Posted August 19, 2018 Author Posted August 19, 2018 360 Boys is opening under new management in a week or two. The doormen at Dream boys said it will be a boy gogo bar and karaoke. The big 360 boys sign was lit tonight and several people on the outdoor terrace. No idea if they’re renovating, or changing the name. Dream Boys tonight had over 20 gogo boys and Xboys, a few meters away had many boys as well. Almost no customers in either bar. vinapu 1 Quote

All I could see were faces and chests. It was very odd as I had no view of anyone. Is this the general experience, has it changed. No, not in my experience. The boys are normally standing on stage, doing a dance or shuffling their feet. Some are seated on the edge of the stage after their rotation. Quote
Guest Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 The doormen at Dream boys said it will be a boy gogo bar and karaoke. A mix of the good and the bad. Perhaps the Karaoke element is to appeal to Asian clients. Quote
BL8gPt Posted August 20, 2018 Posted August 20, 2018 May be it will turn karaoke later like X Boys which turns karaoke after 1:00 am. Quote
williewillie Posted September 13, 2018 Author Posted September 13, 2018 There was a lot of activity at the old 360 boybar. Lastest word is they will open early next month. vinapu 1 Quote
williewillie Posted September 15, 2018 Author Posted September 15, 2018 360 has a new name, Big Boys. Big new signs replaced the old 360, which has ceased to exist.. Quote
vinapu Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 360 has a new name, Big Boys. Big new signs replaced the old 360, which has ceased to exist.. some of us , including me can only hope that name stands for reality. If that will be a case than I need to look for some airport nearby, LOL Quote
vinapu Posted September 15, 2018 Posted September 15, 2018 A Skinny Boys bar would be nice. no, it would attract some do-gooders charity to improve their nourishment and body mass. Let's be honest , there's no shortage of skinny boys in Pattaya's bars, no matter what name says Quote
