JackR Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Hi AllI might be heading to Amsterdam next month for business and I was wondering if anyone had any info about the scene here? I couldn't find much. From what I heard, this place was great in the eighties / nineties - I never got to experience this - but now everyone is saying that all the old bars have been closed, and that the place is finished. I believe boysclub21 is still open, but the few reviews for this place have been poor. Does anyone know if there is anywhere young hustlers still operate? - eastern european / romanian / turks? Or is it only online? Any info would be appreciated. Even if you would prefer to pm. Thanks axiom2001 and lookin 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tassojunior Posted April 21, 2015 Members Share Posted April 21, 2015 Last time I was there only one place advertised as a house, (it was), but the selection ranged from fair to poor. JackR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackR Posted April 22, 2015 Author Share Posted April 22, 2015 Thanks Tassojunior. Where did you see it advertised? Are there local magazines? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lookin Posted April 22, 2015 Members Share Posted April 22, 2015 Sadly, my last foray into Amsterdam's nightlife was back in the days of the now defunct Blue Boy/Why Not? clubs. If you don't get any better tips, here's a list of bars in the gay area. I'd suggest popping in for a pop and asking one of the locals. I've always found the Dutch to be friendly, multilingual, and helpful. Best of luck! JackR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members tassojunior Posted April 26, 2015 Members Share Posted April 26, 2015 Thanks Tassojunior. Where did you see it advertised? Are there local magazines? It was the infamous old "Why Not?" whose subtitle should have been "Why?" JackR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackR Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 Thanks All! Do you know if you have to be a paying member of the website to get their phone numbers? I can't see any way to contact them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest duiven74 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 You are better to search on gayromeo.com for Amsterdam as you don't need pay member subscription for contact details. The boys club 21 is a good place of late but expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackR Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Boys Club 21 is getting better? I heard it wasn't great and that they don't do shows any more, unless specifically requested. Might be worth a visit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to tell but the boy at the bar looking away is probably me. What year was this photo taken if you don't mind? The bartender and the Dutch guy drinking at the bad I know very well and although I can't see very well the other guy in black appears to be a coworker of mine back then from Germany.

Back in the day that is where you went if you couldn't make the cut at the Why Not. I went there once or twice when I worked at the Why Not but there were pretty ugly guys and they were aggressive. Not really relevant now but just dredged up some memories of old times. Here is the site for boys 21 and the selection of boys seems just as bad as it ever was. http://www.boysclub21.nl/index_eng.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackR Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 I did visit here last year. I wouldn't recommend. The owner/manager was very nice. But there were no guys there. Then when we left we were charged over EUR 45 for four drinks. I really wish I had been around to see this place in the nineties! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the tardy response, and I can’t say for sure when that picture was taken, but it’s included in a review of the place written in 2002. I was there a couple of years before that and it looked just the same. If I recall, I made the professional acquaintance of a cutie from Southern Europe in an adjacent room. If that was you, wowsa!, and thanks for a lovely time! Speaking of cuties and old recollections, my first foray into that erstwhile establishment was the downstairs Why Not bar in the late sixties. In those days, everybody I ran into was giving it away for free though I do recall a young German boy sitting at the bar who would have looked right at home in one of Baldur von Shirach’s weekend encampments. There were a number of Dutch daddies clustered around him and only a fleeting exchange of gazes suggested that he might be mine for the asking. I believe the word ’twink’ was invented specifically for him later on that summer. In those days, the only thing more appealing to me than German twinks was German electronics and, as luck would have it, the next day I met a Dutch guy with a scooter who offered to take me to the European Electronics Expo in neighboring Amstelveen. He cooked too, and the next few days were a busy blur. Speaking of Amstelveen, I had occasion to go there by streetcar some thirty years later, again in search of some oddball electronics, and was fascinated by a guy sitting in the front of the car, rat-haired, wild-eyed and muttering to himself in Dutch. It was only when I got off at my stop that I realized he was the conductor. Thanks for indulging the trip down memory lane, and sorry I couldn’t be of more contemporary assistance. Pretty sure, though, that you’ll have to work at it not to enjoy yourself in Amsterdam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
