Great music, mostly young crowd with occasional groups of Thai mafia - you can always spot them - old men with bodyguards and whores in tow, reserved tables and the staff treat them like VIP's. However, I've never seen any problems there, but I always go with Thai girls, so I'm not on the lookout for anyone. Fantastic Western show dancers, gets VERY busy from about midnight.

Fantastic to find all the latest info on the BKK club scene. Especially useful for people like me which regulary spend their holidays in Thailand and want their rare BKK weekends to be well-prepared. I have been to Flix often (last time was in April), so memories come to my mind when seeing those pics... For my next BKK-party-weekend in November I have chosen Inch Bar for Friday evening and on Saturday I will check out Jet Club and the Thonglor/Ekamai scene...just cant wait to get there! But here is a suggestion to make the Blog even better: How about a category for after-hour-clubbing (after 2 a.m.) in BKK? I know the scene is changing frequently with the men in brown closing down places from time-to-time and varying opening times. Would be perfect to have reviews like the ones in category "bars" for the after-hour-scene as well. You could also keep it more general, like "Where to go after 2 am?", and include pool/snooker places and other after 2 am activities. People could enter comments for the introduced places regarding the latest info on opening times as well. One more question: Will also be in BKK on December 5 (Kings birthday). Actually, it will be my last night before going home. Any info on the alcohol ban this year? Will clubs be open? I heard the king has recently announced in a speech that he would see no reason for the alcohol ban on his birthday. Any idea where I could spend the night having fun? Keep it going, Tom!

Apparently you have to be particularly careful with some Thai men, especially those older, cocky-looking, well dressed ones - they don't entertain the idea of you talking to girls they're interested in and sometimes even get jealous and wanna start a fight with you. Last Saturday in Flix I was stood by the DJ box with a mate and this twat walked up to me and said he wanted us to piss off cos he and his many mates were trying to check out the girls behind us. What a bunch of cunts! My best advice is to avoid a fight with Thai men at all costs however confident you're of beating them - I'm not telling you to be a coward but it's not your country and you never what they've got installed for you so be sensible and avoid/ignore them!

What is your opinion on that? I’ve been told that Farangs can quickly get in trouble in this club, if they happen to stumble upon a few thai guys in mood for a fight, but I have never been there.
