    I truly miss the Cafe Royale of past.
    The nightly piano bar and welcoming atmosphere by Mick (RIP) Club Manager...and the host of courteous staff.

    The piano bar singing by Khun Toi was a favorite of mine ...as I sat with my Thai Bf and enjoyed his singing. Even my Bf would join Toi singing duets.

    Toi was a favorite of our beloved Gay Pattayan...Dr. Allen B. Even visiting Allen in his hospital room during his final weeks. Sang Allen's favorite song "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" for Allen at hospital bedside and again at his funeral. Very special indeed!

    Another fine memory from Cafe Royale of past...
    The duo singing of these two handsome brothers...in the Lounge.

    tried to get downstairs just as the pianist was warming up and before the singers started.
    just the piano was plenty and preferred as I sipped a hot coffee or two before checking out the bars.

    the rooms looked fine by my. The painters could have done a better job but no big deal.
    can hardly wait to hear if one or two of the old staff will show up again.

    True - I'm more of a "swear at me and call me a dirty whore" type.

    No good in Thai tho

    Well remember El Duo - when they split up one of them (astonishingly) went on to become Asian Entertainer of the Year - I think it was the big one of the two. Also remember 3000B secured the "services" of one of them.

    Khun Toi was a such a nice guy and when I visited he would always invite me onto the stage to duet with him. I think my efforts made his singing sound great I believe he moved to BKK for work.

    My other recollection was that when he told me his age I simply could not believe it - he was mid-late 40's at that time and looked nothing like it

    Khun Toi graduated from Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok with a Major in Opera.
    He had a dream of opening his own music studio for singers one day.

    Good Lord - didn't know that!

    Thankfully he never sang opera when I was there

    As I say, I know he was singing in one of the bars in BKK after he left LCR but no idea what became of him. I'm sure someone here will have more info.

    Everybody has their dreams (including the boys we interact with) - often they can be quite simple.

    An ex-bf of mine (from Scotland) had the fairly modest dream of a up and down stairs house (not even owning one, just renting) but tragically he cut his life short instead. Whatever someone's dreams may be I always hope they achieve them

    The only Thai I've ever met with an interest in opera was someone who worked for UNICEF. I picked him up in Dairy Queen at Robinsons on the corner of Silom & Rama 4. Remember when it was Dairy Queen? So long ago. It became a McDonald's at some point in (I think) the early nineties - but still a good pick-up place. The street boys plied their trade out on the pavement in the late evenings. Supposedly it was "dangerous" to pick boys up on the street, but the only time I did so it ended most satisfactorily. He even went all the way across the river to Thon Buri in the bus when I (briefly) had a room over there in 1990
