Currently on a Thai trip and have been enjoying the Pattaya/Jomtien 'leg' for a good few days now and managed to find some time to check out the forum.
Generally quiet in Pattaya as all low season periods tend to be, Toyboys/Prisma and cupidol seem to be doing fine despite that. Last trip visited Prisma when it was host/beer bar most days as its a nice location in BT to catch the passing odds & sods of the soi and across from Toyboys always enjoyable. It was kinda odd to go in there this trip as a Gogo bar being old Funny Boys location, but enjoyable time there, some nice looking lads I recognised from other bars and enough customers to make the place look busy. Toyboys was busy on the two occasions I visited with plenty of Asian customers and probably one of the few bars still attracting decent amount of westerners. As with Prisma plenty of nice looking guys here but more non-thais than previously. Cupidol was less busyt than previous trip but still enough good looking twinks to make a visit worthwhile. BzBzBz had the largest contingent of staff with a big percentage of them non-thai. But crowded inside on the night we were there parked outside on the terrace for bfs birthday. Nothing really new to report, big cock show in BzBzBz was on the night we were there.
Low season made worse for Pattaya a few days ago when the new 'big boss' not sure of police/army or local government took office for the first change in about 4 years and immediately set about letting everyone know by declaring a 3am close down. Most of these initial 'big boss' arrivals last a couple nights but the 3am closure has been fairly strict. Even Marine Disco which opens all year round till 6am was shocked to have to comply for a couple nights but its back to normal hours while the rest of Pattaya/Walking St is 3am closing which is pretty useless for what Pattaya is known for. Even the side street karaokes have had to close, so it's looked dead by 3am all over Pattaya.
Sunee as usual for low season looks very quiet. Sad to see Eden Bar close for good 2 nights ago, it's managed to keep going through most of the ups and downs over the years but now for sale with all the furniture already sold to Diamond Bar next door. As far as i'm aware the closure was not really to do with poor trade, more decision taken for personal reasons. Winner Gogo has a few cute lads and drinks are very inexpensive but last night at 11pm I was only the 4th customer of the night, I always try to get round as many of the sunee bars as I can as every baht is needed there. Euro Boy bar usually closes for part of low season so was veru pleased to see it not only open but quite busy, some really nice lads work here manboys/twinks/gay and always great vibe about the place, the boys all like working there and get a generous Bt50 per drink bought for them by customers.
Diamond Bar, Sky bar had customers as did Double Shot on the nights it was open now with Happy Hour specials 5-10.30pm, Leo Bt45, standard spirits I think Bt50, only noticed the poster as I sat there/passed as I never get there before 12am. Nice Boys all man-boys just now and had a few customers when I was in by.
Also (probably too late with info)in town on soi sam just outside sunee/soiVC is festival with food stalls/cothes stalls and Thai Superstar concert nightly since 17th june or so, caught Maleehuana Band last week with their show sponsored by Tam Nan Issan and Chang, with Chang Towers for Bt515, nice outdoor festival feel to concert area, not huge but still enough for atmosphere, cost only bt120 for entry, cant remember how long it goes on this week, but for a it's a great evening out for a change from NAB etc if you take off a boy for a evenings enjoyment, not expensive night can be had. Night we were there arrived 10pm with Superstar on 10.30 to 12.30am.
Above just a quick update while I found time, will update more later inc Jomtien. Typed quickly and on small notebook so a few typo errors I cant be bothered changing.
