And available for offs otherwise it is like being shown an ice cream you can’t eat

Agree, like I said it’s not a criticism neither of Babe nor of his customers. Simply me trying to wrap my head around what he’s pulling in compared to other (24 year old and otherwise) gogo boys. Mekhin apparently remains popular with Chinese female customers and was just enjoying a trip to Japan.

This is not a criticism as you knew what to expect, and also said he was focused on the customer. But the mind boggles that Babe receives so much for doing so little, regular offs at 5000 baht a pop, showered with money garlands, trips to Hong Kong, China, Japan, his Gucci bag, Hermes belt and bangle are all gifted by customers and he has quite the perfume collection too. He must be the highest earning gogo in Silom.

Not sure how it works, can you hire an escort for a session or is it a “show” bar? Any possibility they are gay friendly at least?

There is a BDSM bar in Patpong, I forget the name but one Soi over from Thaniya. Probably worth a peek if this is your thing.

Bangkok Christian Hospital is along Surawong, yes? Funny I’ve seen the sign many times but it never really registered. What are the facilities like? Is it 24 hours and would this be somewhere a regular tourist could go if in need? Very good of you to ensure Van received prompt medical attention!

If you FB them very politely and say you’re a regular customer, they may give you a set! i prefer one that’s already been worn by a boy I fancy

Quick review of new Dreamboys. “Show” not yet on par with the slickness of Moonlight and Jupiter and fewer numbers but has its own appeal, especially due to informality of performers circulating among audience and clubby atmosphere. Lots of smiles here. Surprisingly enjoyable especially when audience is in an enthusiastic mood. Ugly pillar mid stage, management has tried to compensate by turning this into an elevated platform with railings similar to dance clubs. Opened with an extended dance rotation by 7-8 boys. 4 were lookers, high energy gyrations, obviously enjoyed performing. Not sure why the other dancers were extremely skinny and lethargic twinks. For contrast? Quality of boys is good, much improved since opening, something for everyone. Saw at least 5 stunners who would not be amiss in Moonlight model parade, including one boy wearing Indian headdress (interested to know exactly what he looks like under all the feathers) 35 (very handsome) and 92 (dreadlocks, personality). One other boy was a high energy dancer, great body and very smiley but no number tag. Looks more Filipino than Thai. We endured the ladyboy routine with exposed genitals. Hands down Dreamboys wins for best costumes among all gogos, with elaborate light up capes and Maleficent outfits for ladyboys and back up dancers. Ended with big cock parade. Did not stay for second show so not certain if there was fuck show. Place was packed to the rafters due to high season, recommend going well ahead of 10 PM show time in order to score a seat with a decent view. Did not see much offing though. When not on stage, boys come down to hang out at the bar or outside the entrance, making it easy to get a good look or have a chat. More offs taking place outdoors than inside. If they continue upping the ante, I can see myself returning.

Was it really necessary to put them all in bright orange shirts (obviously pre planned) and parade them past the TV cameras? Their faces are covered but those with body tattoos are easily identified. Feel very sorry for these boys. Nothing but police posturing. Is it true Jupiter never gets raided because owner’s husband is a top police officer?

Reminds me of when Mekhin was arrested

Thank you for the report. Look forward to reading Part 2.

Spending some time with my dictionary this morning: it comes from the Greek word sarkazhein,which literally means "tear the flesh." A sense of humor which mocks or ridicules, usually by saying the opposite of what is actually meant. Perhaps this should also be included “lightening the moods of often combative forum members. A much valued participant in all discussions”

There is a cute twink in Stranger who is available for hire. I was there with a barboy companion who is friends with him, after they exchanged greetings he turned to me and said “he boy same same me” perhaps suggesting a threesome but I didn’t take him up on it. I suppose though if he didn’t like the offer/customer he would be able to beg off more easily than barboys who are clearly there for one reason only. And, I could be wrong, but aren’t the waiters in Telephone and Balcony available too?

Nest:

The Nut and Nest appreciation post. LOL Just look at these two stunners and even better in the flesh Nut:

referring to the photo in the Watt thread, I believe he is actually thinking of Nest. but yes Nut is the lead model in the video in this thread. Will put a few photos of both in Moonlight thread for our general viewing pleasure and to appreciate them side by side

Next to Nicky is Nest. He is very cute.

It appears Nicky’s boyfriend is every bit the stunner too!

Sorry, that was my assumption! Unintentional if that’s not what’s OP is planning. In any case I hope his trip goes extremely well and that being young, he also stays safe and errs on the side of caution.

As numazu is being coy I will share my little observation...if you noticed, he actually teased us a little by revealing the photo of his off shared by mamasan was a magazine cover shoot. Now while most of the Moonlight models are regularly photographed by the bar, only 3 are sought after for “professional” publications. Babe, Nut and to a lesser degree Nest. Of course only numazu will truly know if this is on the money or I am still fishing in the dark...

Bangkok can be overwhelming for first time solo traveller especially in finding food options. Do make a list (this forum is a great resource) of recommendations in advance for your area. Also do check out the Siam BTS district or big malls if you need some respite from street level chaos.

Without meaning to sound defensive in the slightest, I’ve offered to take some barboys to Khao San for a drink (being curious, as I haven’t been for some years) and can say with confidence they used “Lo-so” to refer to the place. Maybe that’s what they thought I would understand. And they may have been trying to dissuade me as they wanted to be taken somewhere more expensive and closer to Silom! Anyway OP, you are getting a good mix of opinions here. Enjoy and we look forward to hearing back! When I was closer to your age I had a wonderful time in all of Bangkok not restricted to any area. G doesn’t really check foreigner ID only Thais. DJ does I think.

Age 18 and venturing into Bangkok for paid sex on a budget...perhaps some forum members on long stay in Bangkok would be kind enough to reach out to this member? My take. Most available boys / or young Thai gays looking for action at DJ Station will frequent Silom/Surawong. They only go to Khao San to drink and party with straight local friends once in a while. Barboys have told me dismissively Khao San is “Lo-so” so I can see them losing interest if requested to transport themselves there. You may find a boy off the app willing to do so. I don’t know. Apps are varied and even less regulated than bars where there will be a mamasan to help and complain to, if you can withstand the initial pressure to choose an off ASAP. But on the same budget you would find better rooms in Silom especially since you are not competing with 90% of straight backpacker land for digs. In December. First timers on a budget go to Khao San. Repeat budget travellers straight or gay stay in Silom and possibly Yaowarat or riverside for better and less congested accommodation. The traffic in between Khao San and Silom can be a nightmare unless you’re willing to rely on public transport or go back very late at night. I don’t see a boy from Silom cheerfully taking s combination of the BTS/MRT/bus to return to khao San. Likely you’ll have to rent a short time room which is additional expense.
