The alternate apps (Hornet, PlanetRomeo, Heesay {ex BLUED}, etcetra) allow you to see guys that are not in Grindr because of their broken kaleidoscope approach to the way they conduct their business. vinapu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emiel1981 Posted October 15 Share Posted October 15 I don't know how this thread about Tawan ended up in a discussion about hookup apps, but... 1 hour ago, bkkmfj2648 said: The alternate apps (Hornet, PlanetRomeo, Heesay {ex BLUED}, etcetra) allow you to see guys that are not in Grindr because of their broken kaleidoscope approach to the way they conduct their business. Because I know there are more (local) guys on Hornet or Heesay than on Grindr I have profiles on all apps. But still I think Grindr is the most easy and friendly to use. Specially when you are paid member. Heesay had so many ads popping up and also very limited amount of profiles visable. When trying to apply for paid version I found out that's not possible as Google Play account in Europeans where paid Heesay is not available... By the way their promotion is not very good... Discount price same as normal price? 😂 Hornet is possible for me to get paid membership. Only 99baht for a month. Think I will try out. For that low price even if it doesn't work out and does not lead to a new load of hot boys it's still oke...

bkkmfj2648 Posted October 15 Share Posted October 15 Hornet is good value for money - my annual subscription is $29.99 per year and they don't add extra fees like Grindr does in case you want to know who looked at your profile - that is free. You also can follow other profiles and see who is following that profile and also see who is following your profile - great for knowing which birds of the same feather flock together - a BIG help when you are looking for similar minded people (i.e. who might have a proclivity for similar sexual activities) Meanwhile, greedy Grindr costs $19.99 per month and you need to pay extra if you want to know who looked at your profile and I do not believe that there isn't any follow member feature ? So, the cost for 1.5 months of Grindr is equivalent to 12 months on Hornet. Lastly, Heesay's annual subscription costs $59.99 - equivalent to 3 months of Grindr emiel1981, vinapu and reader 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foolish Posted Friday at 06:57 AM Share Posted Friday at 06:57 AM I went to Tawan earlier this year before it closed and the show was surprisingly good and while pushy for tips, it wasn't that bad. But from the recent reports it seems that it should be best avoided now...and that's a pity vinapu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better statement would be 'trim your expectancies before you go". Fun is still to be had there, it's just bit harder to come by at this time. emiel1981 and jamiebee 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tawan's original venue was on Suriwong Road back in the 1980s Not going back that far, but many might not remember that the previous location, across the soi, was at first only half the size. It was only a bit wider than the current site. At some point they expanded back behind / to the right of entry of the entry door. I think I once saw Tawan on the original Suriwong location but didn't visit it there. I imagine they regularly had competition level bodybuilders then, as they did in the early days of the Soi Tawan Sorry for the interruption to the non-Tawan discussion in this thread 😆 Tawan Forever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulfort Posted yesterday at 11:12 PM Share Posted yesterday at 11:12 PM I agree with Vinapu need to try and keep a focus, I loved Tawan for many years in its former larger premises and also current location and checked regularly when last in Bangkok in March, always hopeful when I noticed someone had maybe entered the sadly closed bar at that time that it might re open during my stay - sadly didn't! I am back in Bangkok next month after an initial week in Pattaya and will certainly check it out and feedback with my humble opinion to anyone interested on this board vinapu, Tawan Forever and jamiebee 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
