And violin club same sort of thing, its basically a hostess bar and you pay for expensive booze and for a girl to sit with you and to give you some might titillation. Waste of money, I had no clue what to expect tbh, one of the tuk tuk drivers got me when I was drunk and I agreed to go there.

Haha Violin karaoke is where screeech26 got his motorbike stolen from by one of the staff. The next day we caught him pulling up to work on it! We also had some very expensive nights out in there, not advisable going to the karaoke bars in CM if you don't know what you are doing

Ya the guy looked shocked and acted like he was holding the bike for us then gave us the keys, pretty hilarious.

How did he get the keys in the first place?

Gotta admit the violin club is the only place where I felt I was 'scammed' in Asia, I guess I wasn't scammed really I just didn't know what the crack was and how it all worked.

Had this chick on my lap for an hour or whatever teasing me, she wouldn't even kiss me properly FFS, she wasn't falang trained

Got drunk as foook and ended up shagging some hound from spicy after hahaha

MyironThumb · 02-08-2012, 08:14 PM

Yeh he got it back. when the staff member noticed we were stood there watching him pull up he came over and gave Alex the freshly cut key he had made. I think he charged Alex for getting the key cut though 555

tbh even though Violin was a huge scam the girls got pretty degen in there compared to other karaokes, you must have gone on a bad night VV

Maybe I dunno, they didn't seem willing to do much at all tbh apart a bit of grinding on my lap, that is why I foooked off to Spicy after paying a big bill for foook all in return

Why would you go to any place that a tuktuk/taxi driver takes you to? Are you really that naive? I always ask what things will cost first (even a cup of coffee) unless I'm extremely familiar with a place, it's standard wisdom in Asia.

i had no idea the place was a karaoke, i asked up front how much everything was and was trying to be careful. Then as soon as i got in and sat down, i saw the karaoke machine and was like fml. I kept contesting the bill, i paid like 400baht for a pepsi that i didn't drink, another 400 baht for the girl who brought me into the room and i never saw again, and a bunch of other random charges. To avoid being stabbed I ended up paying all of it, but was obv pissed off. Next time, if I haven't heard of the place, i'm not going in alone

You realise that you can just turn around and walk out after they tell you that a pepsi is $12 right?

robbyd86 · 02-09-2012, 03:06 AM

I don't remember ordering a pepsi, that's why i just drank water.... but yes, i should've just walked out obv

klink10k · 02-09-2012, 03:52 AM

lol going to karaoke alone and drinking water? if you are going to get scammed at least have fun while doing so screech style
