Sad really. does not give high hopes for the evolution of the go-go scene jase - given it is the same owner who has a bunch of mediocre go-gos on both cowboy and nana - it makes sense that the shows and the bar will be lame.

I met with the manager last night and told him my suggestions, but was told that he already had some plans in motion. It turned out to be that he decided to start putting on shows in Our Place and let me be the first to watch them. They are terrible, all i can think is that more and more people are going to turn away from Our Place - the first show is a James Bond style show that's just plain confusing and does nothing for me, the second is a lesbian show where the girls looked like they felt like they had better places to be, the third is 3 LBs and 1 girl dancing Indian style, the last show is another lesbian show, which was ok, but when I talked to the girl who is going to be doing that show from tonight, she told me that she can't stand the lesbian thing and that the Mamasan is forcing her to do the show, meaning she won't put in a good effort. On a positive note though, there is now nudity because of the shows. Ok, Ok, after last night I feel a need to rescind some of my earlier comments about Our Place.

I saw the FOB for dinner and send him to Soi 33. Sometime around 1 he called needed help with a multi barfine situation and directions to Spic. Not bad for the 2nd night out. Have not heard from him since. Jase - agreed. So why the TAT is juggling with the people they want to come - tourism is down and the economy is swirling the toilet. Smart bunch of people. I honestly think though that attitude was decreed by crook Thaskin and I think it is going to wane over time with the economy needing a swift kick in the ass. C - Where is AW? :) AUK - I think it can make all the difference in truly enjoying a place in a short time or not. I saw the FOB for dinner and send him to Soi 33.

Needless to say, once he was able to walk again and wasn't holding ice to his old fella he refused to stay there. I take all other FOBs to Baccara and LG, like you did, I reckon they're the best gogos for FOBs in Cowboy. Interesting business idea, a tour guide for FOBs, not sure how well it would go, especially now that the Tourism Authority is trying to change the type of people that come to Thailand (they want more Double Income No Kids, and more gays and lesbians - not sure the gays would enjoy Soi Cowboy that much ;) ) Point taken Smitty - I have only taken one FOB to Our Place - and that was because his first impression of LG was terrible after a girl went for the big grope and got him a little hard.

We went on a Stag(Bachelor) Party, a few years ago in Budapest, & were taken to all the best places. Did not get ripped off, but benefited from this very well. The escort was a girl of course!

I would not want to do it but I would think for some people it might be a good option. I only do it for friends and good customers but I get the point indeed. Amazing how a FOB can feel if taken around and shown the right stuff. MM - nice handle. I would not want to do it but I would think for some people it might be a good option.
