Named after the cowboy hat-wearing African American who opened the first bar here in the early 1970s, this red-light district has a more laid-back, convivial feel to it than Patpong or Nana Plaza. Come dusk, garish neon signs light up a seedy streetscape comprised mainly of middle-aged expats, tourists and gaudily dressed working girls. With cries of 'hello, welcome!' and mock brute-force - a playful arm tug - the latter try to lure you into one of the 40 or so go-go bars that line its sides

The Adult Nite Life in Thailand is diverse and internationally known. Each location link listed on the left has the some specifics for that area, this page is just an overview. This site will provide a brief overview of what is available, but it is not graphic because there are plenty of other sites on the web focusing on that.

The girls in the Beer Bars will be in street clothes some dressed more sexy than others. Some of the girls are more shy than others, don't assume that every girl is going to be flamboyent, because that is not always the case

Go go entertainment in Bangkok
Many of Bangkok's go go bars feature simply a continual run of songs in different musical styles – thumping dance beats and in some cases rocking tunes – and go go girls of seemingly different levels of enthusiasm dancing, or at least doing their best imitation of a dance, to the music. In many cases dancing equates to swaying back and forth around a pole or up and down the stage in order for them to have a look at the interested parties in the bar and vice versa
