I don't think the market for bars charging 500 baht a drink in Pattaya is that large.    The Bangkok gogo bars need to relocate within Silom.   The Screwboys soi is one obvious location.

 

 

and one hopes that drink prices will go down to Screwboy's level

I shall make fun of my regular guy on Line and call him Banana Boy! But it’s true!

Really?

So what will become of Banana on 4?

 

One more move, Twilight goes dark in a few days...thanks, PaulsSF for the photo updates.  Have a drink at Maxi's for me.

Wow, it seems most of the go go bars in Soi Twilight was relocated to Patpong 2, so exciting for this new place!!!

Is the Hotmale host-bar reopening as well?

According to a poster  (Trongpai on another board):

Hotmail: There's a sign that they are moving to Patpong 2 on April 1. I was told it will be above Dreamboys but I don't see a second floor there? I was also told that it will take a month or two to outfit the new place. Expect an opining in May.

From what I have seen of the new premises of the bars that have announced their new destinations, they are much smaller than their existing locations.

Yup, they're small but at least they'll still exist 4 us 2 continue enjoying the go go bars, he he

Small could mean that everyone will be closer...audience to boys, boys to audience...

Audience to audience too.

Sometimes fellow audience members are rather good looking or friendly. Otherwise I use boy as a barricade, and they get a handsome lad in close proximity for free.

You are free to use boys as baricade if we ever sit close to each other lol

When I first visited Bangkok I went to the Tomahawk Go-Go opposite Tawan. It was TINY!! Just a raised ledge along one wall and a bank of seating with several levels opposite. Probably only 5-6 feet across from the dancers. But it worked!! Great memories...

Yes that's true, I remember and Wirat was a mamsan there.

But talking of small -- have you been to Nature Boys?

I suppose what I was saying about the new premises' being small was comparing the turnover for the owners compared to that of late.

Yes; the smaller bars were much more fun than the glitzy ones. Remember Khun Bar?

Just curious, will it be possible 2 go with another customer? I wonder how the go go boys and mamasans will react, haa haa

I've left with customers in gogo bars before.  How it goes over depends on the staff.  When I was in Bangkok, a mamasan on one side and a horny customer on the other.  The mamasan was not pleased that the guys on stage were being ignored.  In Pattaya they didn't care at all.

By the way there still is a sign to the right of the entrance: "This soi we go on for 6 years". The same text in Thai and Chinese.

Above another sign "This soi is not going to close".

Why dont they remove it? Very confusing.

I believe that X-Boys is moving to a possibly larger space.

Maybe I'll try that next time, lol

I think X-boys moved to 'soi Wall St.'

If so that bar is indeed big but through several incarnations was never successful. It originally started as a lady bar by the owner of the soi.

Good luck to X-Boys.

with 2 boy bars in such small soi it may create some gay momentum there and in time more can arrive and it may become soi's Twilight replacement, just daydreaming

I think it was X-Size that moved to Wall St.  and rebranded itself as G Boyz.

As of last night, the word was that X-Boys -- currently operating on Soi Twilight -- is taking over a space on Patpong 2.  (2 I believe).
