Members Lucky Posted January 13, 2011 Members Posted January 13, 2011 So I took the metered taxi and still got ripped off! The hotel said the fare should be 500 baht, but this guy took the long way and ran it up to 650. Today I taxied back to the airport and the guy wanted to avoid the meter. He offered to drive me there for 500 baht! I took his offer. So, after hideous flights from the US, (The first Delta flight way late so that I barely made my connection to BKK) I arrived at 1 am to my hotel in BKK. Very nice and comfortable. They honored the last 2 nights of my Priceline reservation, so now the Delta insurance should pay the rest of my out of pocket loss caused by the first delay. Some people on the 2d flight had left the day before- 4 hours late, and all had to spend the night in Tokyo, where it is freezing. Glad I didn't as I have no winter clothes with me. I met the poster known as kjun for dinner (kjun12 on MER) We had a very nice chat and then went to Patpong to watch the boys until I picked out a cute masseur and had to take my leave. "Golf" works at Bunny Massage and did his best to please me. Jet lag then set in and I slept for hours. kjun has posted just about as long as I have, so it was nice to match the face to the name. I hope we can meet up again next week when I am back in BKK> Today I flew to Chiang Mai where I will shortly go out to see the local talent. I am staying at a gay guesthouse recommended by Oz. I waw also able to buy a throwaway cell, which makes it nice to call the US without having to find an international phone and phone card. So, it's shirtless weather and a night full of promise. Will shy ol' Lucky get laid? Quote

Will shy ol' Lucky get laid? The best part of a long flight is having it behind you. Seems like a long way to go for Golf, given all those PS courses, but playing a new course is fun. A hole-in-one assured no doubt. I'm sure that your shirtless venture out will bring fullfilment of all that promise you sense. The biggest issue will be picking and choosing from the attracted throng. Please keep us voyeurs stoked with fresh details of your adventure as it unfolds. We're with you in spirit. Quote
Members Lucky Posted January 14, 2011 Author Members Posted January 14, 2011 Given that we have a few folks here interested in Thailand, I've always enjoyed it when others write about their experiences so I can have a taste of Thailand in between my visits. So this thread is for those folks. Last night I went to a bar in Chiang Mai called Adam's Apple. They have a big neon apple out front. Sadly, there were few customers for this nice looking bar. The mamasan is a cute (and unavailable) gay boy who sat with me. At first I thought he was just keeping me company until the place got busy, then I realized the place wasn't going to get busy. Except for 2 other customers who already seemed occupied, I was the only potential source for one of the guys to make some money. And they did have plenty of guys. most of whom were cute. They dressed in shirt and tie, and sat around looking very bored. I take it that they are not allowed to approach the customers, But mama was working hard to get some business. Only a few of the boys danced on stage. I liked one that did a number with another guy where they whipped each other. (The kept giggling though). Then mama brought the newest boy over to me. He was also the cutest, but he either did not want to go with me, or he simply had too many things he did not do. Okay, all he said he would do is rim. He wouldn't kiss me me but he would rim me. Didn't make sense, so I figured he just wasn't interested. Then again, I was the only prospect. So, I finally went with the guy from the stage number. He was accommodating, not that I am very hard to please. But mamasan flat out lied to me about what I should pay, so I ended up paying an overnight price for an hour. Mama also tried to get me to use the room there at 500 baht, but the off fee was only 300 baht. Even after we were outside mama tried to lead me to a hotel across the street. So I won't go back. The saving grace is that mamasan is very cute. One question for firecat and Oz. I went to the show at Jupiter in Bangkok. I've always liked their shows, and I think you guys did too. But the first hour was quite a bore and I had to leave. Does it get better? I can go again next week... Quote

Members firecat691614502759 Posted January 15, 2011 Members Posted January 15, 2011 [ One question for firecat and Oz. I went to the show at Jupiter in Bangkok. I've always liked their shows, and I think you guys did too. But the first hour was quite a bore and I had to leave. Does it get better? I can go again next week... Went to Jupiter last week and agree the show is a Yawn. I think you would enjoy the show more at Boys Bangkok/ Dreamboys Show is better with less down time, seats more comfortable and the boys better looking when the show is not on. Let me know when you are back in Bangkok. I will arrive back from Pattaya on Sunday Quote
Members Lucky Posted January 15, 2011 Author Members Posted January 15, 2011 Hope the Jupiter shows return to their earlier glory.last night I went to the New My Way in Chiang Mai. Anyone of the opinion that Asian cocks are small would have seen repeated evidence to the contrary, as several large erections paraded across the stage in various attempts to entertain. The My Way actually had customers, too. Today I went to an orchid farm and to the Queen's Garden, which is beautiful. On the way back my tour driver took me by the old Coffee Boy guest house, where I had some of the best times of my life in the late 80's and early 90's. I shouldn't have gone, as the place is decrepit, having been closed for some time. Odd how it wasn't as big as I remembered either. Surely my memories of the good times there are true! I also managed a foot massage by this petite woman. 10 dollars for one hour. She nearly killed me, she was so strong! She ended up massaging the shoulders, and I was embarrassed that I needed her help to get up. This computer is sticky, so I done with my report for today. I guess that MsGuy isn't reading them after all... Quote

I spent a month in Thailand during this time of year which is "THE VERY BEST TIME" for one to go. After my outstanding tour, I ventured to Pattaya, Bkk, and for the first time to Phuket. Although I was traveling solo, which I didn't particularly care to do, I look back at this experience with very, very fond memories after connecting with what you wrote! Continue to enjoy yourself, and when you have "some down time," keep us abreast here of your adventures. Thanks, my fellow cyber partner and friend! Quote

Members Lucky Posted January 16, 2011 Author Members Posted January 16, 2011 Night 23 took me to the Circle Pub, which, except for my uncomfy seat, I liked a lot. A nice young man of 25 made made my acquaintance right away, and we enjoyed some time together. There were many cute guys there, and the place was packed for the show. Two older straight couples came, but when the first dancer dropped his pants, they left in a hurry. The show opened with a well-choreographed lip sync and dance show, then quickly moved on to the sex. A young man with an enormous penis was masturbating in his room, when the character from the screen joined him. They pleasured each other* and the show abruptly ended, as did each act. Next was a shower show, again two guys with enormous erections pleasuring* each other. There were then two guys in smocks with holes for their, again, enormous cocks to poke out of. They walked around to make sure the audience had a close look. A solo singer, rather handsome, then performed, and we were back to various acts involving guys with erections doing various things. Finally, the singing group came out to end the show. All the guys working the club came individually on stage. The first group wore a thin cloth that showed their erections underneath, then the next group wore blue jeans and no shirts, followed by, I guess, the shy guys who came out fully clothed- shirt and tie. No mamasan bothered me as the club was quite busy. Thankfully the first guy was just my type. *When I say pleasuring, take note that the guys are careful not to touch each other's cocks. I got another Thai massage today. This place was less upscale, and the cost was $4.75 for an hour. Yes, I tip well. But each massage now has left me in pain. Today I hurried to the RX to buy a pain patch for my lower back. In the past I have learned that the first few Thai massages hurt, then they become bliss once the body knows what to expect. Finally, about these big cocks on stage. These guys must be specially selected for the shows, as none of the guys I have personally met in my 13 visits to Thailand have been that well-endowed! No report tomorrow as I will be en route to Bangkok. Hopefully in the week left to me I will find more good times. Quote
Members lookin Posted January 17, 2011 Members Posted January 17, 2011 Night 23 took me to the Circle Pub, , , , Good gosh! Have you really been gone that long? Seems like only yesterday you were just settling in for your Welcome Dinner with Kjun. Gotta say, I'm really loving the updates. First, it's a way to vicariously enjoy all the giant Thai choads hanging from one end of the country to the other and, second, it's a reminder of how small the internet has made our world when a favorite poster can pop in for a daily chat even though he's halfway around the world. For anyone else following Lucky's doings with the same high level of interest, I think I figgered out that Bangkok is twelve hours ahead of New York. If correct, right now I'm picturing Our Intrepid Traveler sound asleep snuggled amongst the handful of well-endowed Thai guys who followed him back to the hotel last night. Or was it the night before last? Quote
TotallyOz Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 Circle Bar is one of my favorites in Chiang Mai. I like the shows there and the boys are usually hot. When I was there, I found the majority of the boys at the gogo bars straight. That didn't mean they were not willing to accommodate, it just meant I had to work a bit harder to get what I wanted. The scene is Chiang Mai for boys is a bit odd. IMHO. The bar scene can be hit or miss. However, if you are there for a few weeks or a few months (I have done both) you find that when you get a good guy that you like he will find you anyone else you want. My "boys" there always find me others and bring their friends along. My last trip there I had only one boy I was "in love with" and he was the cat's meow. I had no desire for anyone else as he was perfect for me. Until I told him to ask his friends to go bowling. Then, I found a few more "perfect" boys. Lucky, thanks for all the updates. I have been enjoying your adventures and I hope you continue to have a good time in LOS. Quote

Members Lucky Posted January 18, 2011 Author Members Posted January 18, 2011 My first (1st- lookin) night in Pattaya I had dinner with the owner of the world's premier gay male escort review site. The dinner was great. Afterwards, he took me on a tour of some of the bars in the area known as Boystown. Turns out that he not only owns a website, but he is also the mayor of Boystown, or so it would seem. The boys flock to him much as the Rio boys flock to tomcal. While waiting for the mayor, I saw a very hot young man with a chiseled chest leaving a gay massage place, where I assume he had just left work. I intend to find out today. After the mayor called it a night, I continued to checkout bars, waiting for the 10:30 show at another place. When I finally got there, I saw the little sign announcing that the show was now at 10, so I continued on, and like a good gay man, went shopping. Such a distraction amidst all those boys. I finally decided that the first boy I was introduced to was the best choice, so I returned to the bar where he works, only to see him leaving on his motorbike, with a girl holding tightly on to him. That only underscores the message- he who hesitates... Pattaya boys tend to be on the younger and thinner side, which makes chiseled chest all the better a find. The search continues if I am wrong about him. There are probably another 100 bars here that I have yet to try. Finally, on semantics, I used to make the case that Thai men are not boys, and should not be referred to as such. It's a lost cause. Everyone here calls them boys if they are working, whether 18 or 28. So I joined the club cuz I like boys. So, when I went to add this edited post, my edit time had expired. Wisely I had saved the post, but this is it. If this post doesn't go up, I truly am done for the day! Typing, that is. Quote

Members Lucky Posted January 18, 2011 Author Members Posted January 18, 2011 LOL- I like the sign too! But tonight we did not go to Boyztown, instead went to Sunnee Plaza. The bf and I had been shocked 3 years ago at something we saw in a bar that involved an extremely young looking boy. So, Oz gave me the Sunnee tour, and true enough, the place is not much different now from Boyztown. I saw no (too)-young boys. We went to 4 go-go bars, the favorite being the Krazy Boys. The rest of the bars are now beer bars and have no dancers. But the night was not without a story. One of the beer bar owners had told us he had heard the police were coming through tonight. At one bar, many of the boys suddenly left, not because they were underage, but because they didn't want to pee in a cup. At Krazy Boys they suddenly put shirts on. When we left, we found the streets packed with police, military, and press, as the entire area of gay bars was being raided. The substreets were blocked off to catch any boys that did not flee soon enough. Eventually there was nary a boy to be seen, except for a few getting photographed by police. The massive raid was disheartening as it was clear that only gay bars were being invaded. And it was a big party pooper as well, since only the farangs were left, shaking their heads and wondering where the boys were. Well, they were in Boyztown, which was seemingly untouched by the police action, although there did seem to be fewer boys there than the night before. So, if you are left wondering about chiseled chest, I did see him, again shirtless and apparently returning from an out call...pure speculation on my part. I later parked myself where the masseurs from the place sat, but no sign of him. I did take note of another athletic guy, who was also pretty cute, and he seemed to quickly notice that my eye lingered on him one/millionth of a second longer than it normally would have. That's all it took, and I was soon being massaged. Well, sort of. It wasn't quite a deep tissue massage. But, being naked in my room with a cute Thai guy (25) wasn't so bad...until he called me "sir." That made me feel kind of old. But not as old as it did when my knee cracked and he was scared that he had hurt me. Fat chance of that since his massage was so light. But we ended up parting happily, his mission accomplished and me falling asleep, no doubt drooling on my pillow. Well, I made that part up. I didn't sleep. I notice that Pattaya is increasingly visited by Russians, who have to be the world's worst dressers. It is just unbelievable how mismatched their clothing is. Even the muscle hunks have odd muscle shirts on. And don't ask me about the Russian women I saw at the beach. It might have looked like a muscle dyke beach had it not been for the men the women were with. But some of the Russian boys are quite cute. Lots of Muslims now in Pattaya too, which makes me think their efforts to make the place a family friendly location might actually work. But those Russians clearly love their drink, so that won't go, and with those wives the men need Pattaya just as it is. {All stated in a lighthearted, politically correct humor.) The photo above of Nicholhas could get me forgetting all about Thai boys, so I had better leave the website and get back to the real (?) world. The real world...in Tunisia, not Thailand: Quote
Members MsGuy Posted January 18, 2011 Members Posted January 18, 2011 So, if you are left wondering about chiseled chest, Never hurts to wrap up loose plot lines. I was soon being massaged.

Members Lucky Posted January 19, 2011 Author Members Posted January 19, 2011 Well, thanks. I aim to please. I did reflect a lot on what I wrote above about the police raid. I hope I did not give the impression that the boys were fleeing because they were all on drugs. The purpose of the raid was to harass, and do it with the press watching. The boys may be happy to dance in the bar, but it does not mean that they want their picture on the news for the folks back home to see. Additionally, who wants to be harassed by the police in the first place? I wanted to avoid them myself, and I had nothing to fear.Just like truck drivers and baseball players use drugs for the long haul and the players during the dog days of summer, some boys sometimes use uppers to keep the bootie shaking night after night. But I did not mean to imply that the was the reason they all cleared out. The raid depressed me. It was like the government trying to tell gays that their lifestyle is not approved of. Police here have no bragging rights on lifestyles. It is a beautiful morning in Pattaya. I had breakfast on the 14th floor of the new Hilton, overlooking the water and all the boats. It was delicious. When the bellboy at the front of the hotel learned that I needed directions to the restaurant, he actually took me there. I was impressed with that kind of service. Today I want to return to the beach. I may end up with a Russian wife, but I'd settle for a Russian boyfriend...at least for a day. Quote
Members Lucky Posted January 19, 2011 Author Members Posted January 19, 2011 I didn't find anything in the local news about the raid, but they are just now reporting a raid on January 5th, so maybe they are behind in the news: Unhappy Ladies This raid is not dated: Gambling Raid So, maybe they aren't just picking on gays...? Quote
TotallyOz Posted January 19, 2011 Posted January 19, 2011 So, maybe they aren't just picking on gays...? Having lived here for a while, I do believe they pick on the gay areas disproportionally to the girl bar areas. I would say 90 percent of the raids take place in gay areas while the gay areas make up less than 3 percent of the city venues. Quote
Guest FourAces Posted January 20, 2011 Posted January 20, 2011 Such a shame they pick on the gay clubs. If I was on vacation and a raid happened it would be depressing to be around while it was happening. But this happens all over the world not just Thailand. As gay men we need to be strong and not let stupidity or hatred interfere with our lives and enjoyment. Quote
Members Lucky Posted January 20, 2011 Author Members Posted January 20, 2011 I have made way from the police in Pattaya and am now in Bangkok for the end of my trip. Pattaya was great fun as Oz showed me around, police raid an added attraction. He knows a lot of people, but especially knows the good places to eat. We took in the bad boys show at Boyz Boyz Boyz last night, and they weren't so bad. They should have been! One fun club was Dynamite, where we each tried to keep the dancers happy as we were the only customers. But we made some guys smile. Now, I plan to go to the muscle bar, and then check out some of the other places. Tomorrow night I meet another MER poster, firecat. Saturday kjun is going to join me at the Weekend Market. You gotta admit it is nice to travel and meet folks from the boards wherever you go. The bf has given me permission to get have as much fun as possible in these last few days, reminding me what a bore Palm Springs is. And I do want to help the Thai economy...so maybe a foot massage is in store? Quote
Members lookin Posted January 20, 2011 Members Posted January 20, 2011 What a relief. I was worried you might have gone all Stonewall on us and ended up a political prisoner in Pattaya. Glad to hear you're back in Bangkok where you will also be kneaded. Quote
