Lost in a beer bar 2005 Pattaya Beer Bar classic
Somewhere Lost in a beer bar is a video classic as Strange things happened with my camera and head by Jack Corbett
Click here or on the picture to get the video. This video's took place in a 2005 beer bar at Soi 2 and 2nd Road.
My bar girl date is Skie Skie's a heavy drinker. I call this video, "Lost somewhere in a beer bar."
There's these little bar games the bar girls take out to play with their customers, which are great ice breakers, particularly in view of the language barrier. The one that Skie seems to be particularly adept at is much like tic tac toe. One plays by placing a special frame on the bar into which both contestants place colored markers. One wins by getting four in a row whether horizontally, vertically or diagonally. The bar in which we are shooting the video is one we just picked at random with neither of us ever having been there before.
I have a very small portable tripod which I put on the bar to which I mount the video camera. If I seem a little distracted in the early portion of this video it's because I'm monitoring the video camera to see if I have it centered on what I want to shoot, who's in it and whether it should be on or off.
Our bartenders are terrific like the girls behind the bar who had actually plugged my laptop in for me behind the bar at Foxy Lady. And here, they are definitely going along with our whole program. You will notice a couple of characters who don't look very feminine. These two are lady boys who seem to both be with a German looking fellow off to our right. One of the lady boys is definitely wanting to be the center of attention. At one point it appears to me that one of our female bartenders gives him the sign to do something with a beer bottle which he follows up on immediately.
A number of lady boys have gotten sex change operations, a discipline in which I understand Thailand has become one of the most advanced countries at. In the video Skie is playing the game against the bartenders and usually wins.
The video ends at Skie's bar between Pattaya Klang and Soi 7. Here I pretend to be much drunker than I actually am. I'm behind the bar with the girls who gather around me. One of the prettiest ones is AN. She's the cashier. Most of the others I've seen get very lit up, but An doesn't drink or at least she doesn't at work. An's the girl I snap up at the very end of
the video who's laughing loudly at my antics.
