Los Angeles parties

[nevada64]

I agree Foggy. I wish there were more low key joints.

Maybe there are some low key joints.

So low key I don't know about 'em...

Oxwood comes close on Weds. nite, but it's pretty dead most times I've traveled over there. There was a lounge on Ventura Blvd. that had a TS nite once a week last year...R something. That was ok, but it's always the same crowd.

I must be getting old...I'd rather meet an interesting girl than have some brash silcon'd ass wiggled in my face.

Frat House in Garden Grove! Just kidding...although some fine assed young Latinas do pop up in there.

Peanuts 2.0 and The Yukon circa 2001-2004 was LEGENDARY. Club Cobra 1.0 was close.

[Toadily]

you guys need connections. there are lots of parties in los angeles (about 3/week)

Then that is a problem, the promoters at these clubs need to get the word out.

These things run in cycles it seems.
Buddy Wood tried to get something going in the Valley, and it was good for a while, then *poof*.

I think the girls sabotage the nights sometimes. Too much drama sometimes.

There's still Mon. nite at MJ's, Weds. & Sat. nites at Oxwood, Thurs. nite at Cobra, Fri. nite at Tempo.

Did I miss any?

My complaint is that there aren't enough low key places where non-pros can go to drink, dance and converse. Most "quiet" (for lack of a better term) girls would never think about going to some of these places.

Foggy, thanks for the tips on Tempo and Oxwood. That's the info I was looking for. I'll check out Tempo tonight.

The reason most of these places don't last is because they are littered with nothing but hookers looking for clients. The Palms was the worst! Once at The Palms I approached a cute girl and introduced myself, while talking to her, she obviously didn't have time for small talk (texting while I was talking to her), after about 3 minutes, while in mid sentence, she literally walks away from me when her phone rings to take a call. Not a sign to wait a minute, or i'll be right back I need to take this, just plain walks away. Extremely rude and obnoxious!

Guys want a place they can go to actually meet a girl to talk to, dance, have fun, and maybe meet someone they might be able to date (I know, don't laugh too hard) and its obvious the hookers have no time for that. If I wanted a hooker, I'd look on Eros or Backpage.

When I go out I don't want to be worked over by a bunch of girls looking for their next trick, I want to have some fun and possibly meet someone. If there is no possibility of meeting someone, then whats the point in even bothering to go out?

There was a point in time, maybe circa 2005 and prior, that you could go out to one of these clubs (Peanuts, HM, Cobra 1.0) and actually meet a potential date, but those days seem to be long gone now and even the youngest girls coming onto the scene are escorting from the start.

The thing is, there are lots of non-escort trans out there... but they don't hang around the clubs (because they are finding the same things the guys are at these places).

I went to oxwood a while ago, and it was really seedy. What's worse is the guys were all hiding in corners looking afraid (lol), my guess is they were chasers who have fantasized about trans for a long time...and finally actually got out of the house.

It was just all pretty sad. A normal club has a lot of pretty confident guys, people having fun, a more lively atmosphere (and better dressed people)... but trans clubs have an weird uncomfortable "down low" type of atmosphere going on (where it seems the guys are afraid to even be seen... which makes trans people feel even worse).

Yea, if I am going to a club I would much rather hit the ones in weho like rasputin or something. At least the guys there have a bit of confidence and don't behave like highschool kids at their first dance

This is precisely why I don't go to the bars anymore. I too used to meet regular non working girls and would create friendships. Unfortunately that seems to be in the past.

I haven't been to Peanuts at Tempo yet, but I have been going to Tempo on and off for the last 3 or 4 years. The reason I liked it was that a lot of girls weren't working. They were there just to have fun. Hopefully that will continue.

There are alot of parties thru the group USA(United Sex addicts). They have something always going on.

Dare I say, if you excluded the "working girls", you might attract the non-pro girls out, and lose the creepy lurking guys in the dark corners too.

If the guys know they might actually be able to meet non-pro girls, it would in turn attract them out as well!

Just a thought, but I know its a tall order.....
