Canada is going down the drain too, I haven't been to Canada for ages.
OK guys I am in Rio now a short distance from a subway called General Osario. This is not a cheap area at all. About 7/8 pm tonight I am getting showered and all hell breaks loose outside the apartment. Heavy rifle fire going off, thud thud thud. I counted thirty shots fired. It was damn close and I hit the deck as was scared of a stray round. The whole street was shouting out to each other then the place went completely silent. No people cars or anything. Apparently the nearby favela took a shot at a passing police or military vehicle and the Police etc opened up. They were blasting away into that favela where kids and elderly and a lot of good people live. I am not blaming the Police at all but Jesus, this was like being a war correspondent in Syria. God knows what those bullets hit but they landed somewhere. I will be honest it scared me big time and I am not a wet blanket.
Re religious nuts on both sides then I agree totally, the British church is up to its eyes in scandal and it hushes it up. The Muslims here want to stone all homosexuals to death but recently I heard of one being caught cottaging with another guy. It's all rubbish. All I say to everyone is voice your views and do not be silenced The left wing media in my country in my opinion is rotten to the core. I do not even listen to the BBC news anymore as they don't report fairly and do not represent what me and my friends think anymore. The agenda that's being thrust down our throats Re being gay or transgender is something I find offensive and it makes me fight back. These are my personal views and those of my seven close mates. It's my right to have a view so I am not apologising to anyone and am not looking to start an argument here.

The same shit happens in the USA. Fucking religious people are all gays or run after P4P girls on the sly. I feel like most religious people are undeclared gays that give head to each other, that's why gay marriage is now recognized. The world is going to crap.

Police aint got money for gas and their low wages means no one wants To risk anything.The military has a big pension so they are more likely to be loyal to the establishment

Amazing how a guy with 200+ posts schooled a guy with almost 900 posts.
Wonder how that happened?

I agree with Safado69. There are a lot of options to be tapped in Barra. It's just that there's a lot to tap in Copa and Centro too! So, you have to have the time. If I lived down there, I would definitely spend more time investigating Barra, which I in fact did do during one of my Rio trips. So if you find the time, check it out. Then tell us about it!

Barra is great if you have a few trips behind you, if you are pretty good with Portuguese and if you have time. I have stayed there for a week and also make sure to do a run on each of my trips the past 2 years.
There are generally 3 options for mongering which are clinicas / privees, independents that have apartments and also boates (like Barbarella's). Many older GDPs (in their 30's) have apartments / condos that they work out of in front of the beach (Av. Lucio Costa).
Another plus this is where a lot of tier 1 termas GDPs go to the beach (Praia do Pepe) and also hang out. The nightlife there is pretty good for non-pros too! There is Olegario Marciel a famous area with bars, Boate All In one of the hottest nightclubs, and several beach clubs like Pesquiero. GDPs frequent these establishments as well.
These two boates are affiliated with 4 x4:
http://perolanegraclub.com.br (Barra the Tijuca).
http://www.pariscafe.com.br (20 minutes by uber to Recreio).
Clinicas / Privees.

I wouldn't spend 2/3 minutes there let alone 2/3 days in Barra Tijuca. Want to see it go for the afternoon to the beach with metro. Mongering is not the one there.

The question now is will the building ever be finished, and if so, what to do with it? Maybe open a disco-Help 2 as you note. Rio doesn't need to be worried about its image now the world cup and Olympics have been and gone. The kind of tourist who might visit a museum are too frightened to travel to Rio anyway.

Yes you are correct and that banister, how many girls slid down that banister upon leaving Help. There's an empty video and sound museum in the middle of Copacabana they can use for a new disco, perfect location.

Thanks for putting together this video. It looks like at the 3:44 mark that's the stairway to heaven from Help, and I correct? That brings back some great memories. I've always wondered if that business model has been duplicated to that same level of success at Help. I pulled some stunners that are still top 10 in my spank bank. I've seen some clubs try to duplicate it, but never with the same vibe. Damn shame if you ask me.
Thanks!
