Most of the expats who write on the boards often tell us they do not frequent (sorry!) the gay areas, so there’s no point is asking them the question.
As the night goes on the lights go down and the music goes up. TIT. These bars are staffed by younger people and they just don’t understand older people’s preferences. They think it’s a disco!
I remember sitting in Funny Boys a few years ago at the beginning of its decline. The music got louder and louder and eventually I was the only one left. I asked the Cashier if he knew why everyone had left. He didn’t.
At the end of the conversation he knew exactly why they had gone.
A year later I bumped into him in his new job at Panorama and during the chat he asked me if the music volume as okay. The previous conversation had obviously worked.
By the way I used to consider BBB was the worst offender. Now I have changed my mind and as far as I’m concerned it is now The Palace (think that’s the name) in Jomtien. It’s 2 doors up from @Home bar and sitting in that nice bar it is sometimes almost unbearable.
The noise is so bad that other bars nearby must be losing a lot of trade because of it. If I was the owner of an adjacent bar I would be having words.
