That might be win-win-lose, from my perspective
[QUOTE=ChimpoChinn;2752519]Update on Rain4/5. Briskally Brisk Business. No Rain.
Noteworthy note. One Rainbow 5 girl was obviously obvious on some kind of Narcotics. Not an expert here so no idea what kind.
Stay away from Her.
Got to hand it to Rainbow s 4/5. Good model of Business. They let their girls earn Mucho Money.
Girl go short time bar and girl wins. Girls get two customers. Double win. Everybody Happy.[/QUOTE]No doubt, good for the bars, multiple bar fines per girl per night. And I guess good for the girls, multiple paydays.
But for the punters... For sure, I'm old, but back in the mid to late 90's (damn, sound like my father, "By cracky, those young whippersnappers") but MY experience, most girls (good lookers from Voodoo, G-Spot, Rainbow...) were content with a single LT rather than multiple ST's. Sure, some of the superstars would prefer the multiple ST's, but a LT which ticked off 1 bar fine on her bar quota, she was OK with that. And more than happy if I, being [I]happy[/I], told her the following morning she should just come to the hotel that evening and we'd go together to pay the bar fine. And once trust was earned, I could just give her the bar fine that morning, telling her to pay, and come to the hotel. Of course, back then, not many had mobiles, so if you wanted to see her, or she find customers, it'd be at the bar.
Rather than the ST quickie, you could say you were hungry, she'd take you out to some hole-in-the-wall place with good, cheap Thai food. Or go clubbing. I remember one club, think Soi 19, up a NARROW and STEEP flight of stairs, medium size room inside, band playing Issan music, a few falangs but not many, many people dancing, encouraging a falang to jump in and dance, smiling, laughing, when you did. I always thought that if there were ever a fire, we'd all die as the bottleneck to get out would literally be a killer.
Or a LARGE barn like structure, 1 TALL story (2 story height) , tin roof, maybe out on Petchabury road. Large stage inside, singers, dancers, comedians, taking their turns. MANY wooden picnic tables, rows and rows, set in a U around the stage, always packed with Thais, again a few falang there. You'd sit down where you could find space at a table, the Thais there would warmly welcome you, many times dishing up some food from their own order, and passing it to you. You'd order food and return the favor. The place was monstrous (as I remember).
I remember one time, think it was a Rainbow, Nana Plaza, ground floor, far right corner from the entrance, had spotted a dazzler one night, except she was attached. Damn. Back the next night, just as I was walking in, she was walking out, again attached. I would never assume, back then, that she'd be back the same night. So... The next night, I got there before the bars opened, around 18:30, sat at the beer bar outside of Rainbow, looking for her to arrive. Couple of stools down, girl sits down, putting on makeup. Could it be? In profile, not certain, so I leaned over and asked if she worked Rainbow. She nodded yes, continued with the makeup. All her gold chains (she obviously popular) was the recognition confirmation. I told her I wanted to see her that night, right then. She gave me a disparaging look, as in "BS, Cheap Charlie, no bar fine jumpers here. " I told her the exact events, had seen her the previous 2 nights, but she was [I]occupied[/I], so I'd returned tonight to specifically pull her. Now she gave me the "Really?" look. Told her I'd pay the bar fine right then and there. Didn't I want to go inside the bar when it opened? No need, I was there to see her. She smiled, flattered, took the bar fine, went inside, returned a few minutes later, and off we went. (To be clear, sometime in there, I'd verified the [I]service[/I] charge, it was reasonable, and everything worked out.) She was pleased she had a guaranteed income for the night, and I got to scratch that itch.
No longer first hand experience, but from what I've heard and read, much more mercenary now. Doing some research before returning (thanks to those here) plus other places, somewhere I read where the bars themselves were [I]encouraging[/I] their workers for ST, like be back in an hour. Really? I agree with that author: I understand the bar has to make a profit and they want a bar full of girls, but a bar fine (what is it now?) to [I]compensate[/I] for her brief loss of time to them. I could see [I]back then[/I], when she'd be gone the night, but for an hour or two?
By the way, for newbies, install the LINE app on your mobile. You find [I]quality[/I], exchange LINE ID's. OK, you can't be like a Pokeman collector, moderation goes a long way, but is VERY helpful in reconnecting on a return visit. Returning after 3 years, I'm batting .750, 3 out of 4. And the failure is because I was complacent and didn't get her LINE while at the MP, one of those "Arnold Schwarzenegger" [I]"I'll be back"[/I] but wasn't. Checked out the MP's website early this year just as Thailand opened again, and she was there. But on checking more recently, she wasn't (obviously, they hadn't updated their web pages). Queried the MP, they confirmed she no longer worked there, but they had others. DUH. I don't bypass the MP employer, I just message her to book the appointment, then meet her there. YMMV.
An ongoing observation and question for the committee
As I make my daily and nightly rounds through the lower Sukhimvit red light districts I notice even on the busiest nights of the week, Friday and Saturday, a couple of the go-go bars in Nana Plaza and on Soi Cowboy are packed with customers while most others are practically empty. I'm talking about nights when it isn't raining, the weather could not be better, plenty of girls on the stages or sitting around, most often no remarkably greater percentage of lookers and doables in one or another bar.
Yet, the streets are jammed with traffic, restaurants are packed with customers, the malls are packed with customers, all as crowded as much if not more crowded as the highest high season I have experienced in my ten years of living here.
Why aren't the go-go bars in the two biggest areas, Nana Plaza and Soi Cowboy more packed with paying customers, especially since the third one, Patpong, has barely reopened yet?
On a possibly related note; Friday night, lovely weather, I had a last minute "oops, my period just started" cancellation excuse from a long term favorite freelancer. So around 10 pm I ventured into Nana Plaza to check out the market. I bought LDs for above average looking but not top tier girls in two different bars that were not particularly crowded at all, Random 1 and Geisha Bar. The cuddling and kissy chemistry in the booth was fine, very promising.
I got my "No" to BBFS from each, "No" to a CIM finish BBBJ from one, "Ok" to a CIM finish BBBJ from the other but she would not budge from 3,000 baht to her for Short Time.
I felt 3,000 + 1,000 (the barfine) was way to steep for what would amount to a BBBJ+CIM+SPIT from that mid 30's MILF that I know I could get for 800 - 1000 just about anywhere. So I thanked her for her time, paid my bar tab, went back to my apartment.
Nothing particularly rare about that. I have gotten two in a row "No"s to what I want or no budging from silly quotes and called it a night many times. Just relating it as a possibly related Report.
Back in my apartment I rested up for a much, much more rewarding BBFS+CIP Long Time Overnight the next evening with an adorable 20 year old university student for 3,000 baht total, not counting the 200 baht I paid for her Thai food dinner at a Soi 8 restaurant.
