On my last trip while visiting Dreamboys one of their boys , veteran of several offs by myself was making motions toward me indicating he may be interested in at least drink if not outright an off. Since I had another plans I was greatly relieved that minutes later quite attractive Chinese looking girl in mid 30-ties called him over and shortly after , on my watch off they went, I strongly doubt for souvenir shipping. reader and jamiebee 2 Quote

Not to dispute your findings but there's still possibility they may have their admirers not to mention use for bar as performers in the show. When visiting bars , and I make a point of visiting most of them, if not all , on every trip , I was witnessing offs of boys I would never venture to for that reason or another. On streets I often see farangs walking with girls or rather ladies who could work part time as witches , well past their prime and I doubt they are being engaged because their dusting or cooking skills. splinter1949, reader, jamiebee and 1 other 1 3 Quote

They have, my visits are more massage and food related whereas sex in BKK used to be at a 70% rating now at about (40-50%) from me while Pattaya has always be in amateur status of 25-30% on my rating scale. Cuba has deteriorated to the 10% level and I'd struggle to go back, but to only visit some old friends. Quote

Members sydneyboy1 Posted June 11 Members Posted June 11 I gave The One another try tonight. Arrived at 10 worse than tragic. I was the only customer a few fat tattooed “boys” bored out of their brain playing with their mobiles. Don’t waste your time. vinapu 1 Quote

Don’t waste your time. one of our non-contributing members was also there tonight (Tuesday) and his impressions reported to me were more uplifting . There was 5 customers for the show so I guess he was much later than 10pm. Show was brief , about 20 minutes but nevertheless show it was. He was happy because one of guys he was fond of in the deep past suddenly reappeared. By his admission and he knows me very well as we went to Tawan together on many occasion there were at least four guys I liked in the past including twinkish masseur and hunkish waiter and some new guy he suspects I'd like him as well. So here's some hope for the bar and their boys admirers although for bar to survive it needs much bigger client base than just few customers. jamiebee, reader, Ruthrieston and 1 other 4 Quote

I was always at the impression that Tawan/The One's type of boys has always has been the big, beefy, chunky, bit chub, bulking muscle men (whether on season or off season). I love Asian Musclemen 😍😍😍. But yeah sucks to see them just in the corner playing with their mobiles instead of showing off what they got on stage. Hope their operations get more traction and for them to up their shows like before. Otherwise it will be hard to survive with the bars big/muscle men niche in predominantly Twink offerings of Thailand. vinapu and reader 2 Quote

There was a time when the Tawan had a large stable of spectacularly fit stunning muscle men. This has long ceased to be the case. I was in Bangkok in December 2018 and the Tawan had deteriorated to the point of being a chubby chasers bar. The One has continued this deterioration. floridarob and jamiebee 2 Quote

Perhaps they did not take diligence about getting new blood and guys started to get weight, all the same like their clients. But from what I hear very recently , not all hope is lost. Alternative being high priced Moonlight models, also not exactly in their prime or stunning indeed but full of attitude and indifference Jupiter guys , Tawan in The One incarnation still has a chance to get it's market share jamiebee 1 Quote

Hope they get new boys that represent the old Tawan when it was on its peak or the current boys get motivated to toughen up and gain back their physique. Otherwise they may lose their remaining admirers if they don't do something soon. vinapu and reader 2 Quote

Just saying. Oh-ing and ah-ing about the boys is worth nothing if won't translate into cold cash, be it drinks, off fees or tips Sometimes we customers are right sensing trouble for bars ( New Twilight, Sol ) but sometimes owners know better as they see the cash register from inside. Dreamboys in soi Twilight location and BoyzBoyzBoyz are good examples of most expensive bars in their sois and yet most crowded. jamiebee 1 Quote

spoon Posted June 13 Posted June 13 Given the popularity of hugs bar for bear and chasers, its only a matter of time those guys make way to the new the one bar. My experience with tawan is mixed bag as well. Seems like they do have a lot of freelancer that comes whenever they want, which could explains the mixed reviews. These rare gem usually comes when they need money, or when they are free only. Sadly, i dont think there is a pattern, but i guess if they have regular job, weekend nights might be when they will make appearance for some extra cash? Sadly, the permanent exhibit of old tawan and i guess The One as well fits the recents trip reports. jamiebee and vinapu 2 Quote
