The whiskey was so watery that I am sure the coke had to have been watered down too. Once our eyes adjusted to the darkness, I got us two whiskey and cokes from the bar and we headed to the center of the room where a small stage sat in the middle of it with old theatre seats placed around the stage in three or four rows. He buckled to my firm negotiating, unbelievably, and we entered a curtained doorway into a very dark bar room. I argued again and told him that I knew the free drink came with the entrance fee. He did not call my bluff and told me that we would not get a free drink when we went in at 500 Baht each. I argued with the host and the bouncer and threatened to leave, although I had no intentions of going anywhere except inside with my girlfriend to see the sex show. Koh San Road, always wild, yet always a surprise.
