I always change and shower at the gym so I guess that is important to me and Paragon and Esplanade lockers are really poorly designed. That is unless you like rubbing butts with a dude while you change, if that's your cup of tea, then these places will suit you.

Silly. I need to check the paragon out it seems. The other thing I never get with thailand gyms is that the dudes always pour water on the heater in the dry sauna. It kills me. I have learned in Thai now how to ask them if they can read the sign outside explaining that the dry sauna is not suppose to have water poured on it. I tried it last time and the dude left the sauna. Too funny. They have that combo lock policy everywhere. Silly.

Initially I joined it just to work out, believe it or not, but was struck by the girls working out (I mean hard core workout) and at the adjoining coffeshop. Met two nice girls while there that made my stay in BKK few notches above the standard playing pool, getting drunk and banging (with no money changing hands). It took a week or so of courting but was well worth it. We're still in touch and I'm gonna see them (seperately) when I'm back in BKK later this year. For the life of me I can't understand their super weird no combination lock policy. Carrying a key on me while working out is a drag. Also, the personal trainers, while being dirt cheap, are a bit of a hassle. Otherwise it's the best gym experience I've ever had.

Inch was less than 2k for a bottle split 3 ways. We just paid the door at glow for 200 baht which includes one premium drink with premium alcohol unlike Q bar. Who knows on Soi cowboy but we did not buy ladydrinks. My friend had a bottle on the shelf at Spicy so no money there for 4 people to get in. Good value for fun factor indeed. AW sucks. Enuff said.

Unfortunately I don't see that happening so they will continue to rule. You guys are right on with why AW sucks though. Many of the mamasans and girls are really not nice people and will screw you for every last baht if given the chance. They are actually more dangerous than a bar like Baccara where the girls have attitudes and shun you if you don't come up with big bucks. At least you know right away and get ignored. AW girls/mamasans suck you in with a smile and kindness and then suck you dry, and I don't mean that in a good way. IMHO, they should clean house. Replace anybody who has been there more than a month. Pim (owner who works her ass off keeping the shows going and keeping the girls that do the shows in line) is the main reason why AW has done so well. Unfortunately everybody else there takes credit for it and has the cocky attitude to match. Mandarin, Carousel (has shows), Mercury (has shows), and Pretty Lady are good alternatives in Nana.
