where is this place situated? When I go back at the end of this year. I don't mind to go there! thank

Photo was taken at two places. Mekong riverside near Don Chan Palace, and the other at a club.

Hi Admin

if you don't mind give me the club name please! Thanks....

I prefer not to name them but there's plenty of places where they sing live music all over Vientiane.

because you hang out there and didn't want us to see you there??  ;D

Buk IIWJ, I have been there but having said that, I go to many other places as well.

I've had enough guys flirting with me and I don't want more people seeing me.

LMAO!!!  Okay Sexy.... ;D

Remember, chatting in the internet is a lot different when meeting the person face to face.  She's very outspoken here, but, I think she's very shy in real life. :)

I met a lot of people online and actually met up face to face.  Me personally I have no problems/worries.  I'm a people person face to face or even online...I used to be shy younger years, but, that's changed. :)  Buk IIWJ how about you?

Actually, I am 90% sure that she is a he.  Just check out "her" domain registration.   In Australia.  "She" owns 33 other domain names.  All for commercial profit to get you men here, in hopes of finding a real Lao woman.  But no meeting actually takes place.  We are all fish in a barrel.

This avatar is not the real Solivan.  I am sure of this Mr.  Too bad.  I would love to meet the real woman who's picture you have stolen.

KindlerclanYou are absolutely correct about the domain names and the registrant. I don't know about anyone else, I'm not here looking for women.  I'm here for information,updates regarding our homeland, and hoping to chat with you guys about Lao topics or issues.  Overall, that's about it for me.  The only reason I came across to this website was because of You Tube videos. :)There are way too many pathetic and desperate people looking for love using online websites and end up getting scammed in the end. It's sad but very true.  I'm not saying all websites scam.  People just need to be more alert and use precaution.  When something is too good to be true than it probably is. If you want to meet women through the online network you can use  facebook or myspace.   If you don't want that you can find people on these messengers: MSN LIVE, ICQ, etc... If you want to confirm who the person you are talking to you can always have a video conference or using various voice chats (Team Speak, Ventrilo, etc...). For me personally,  I have met a lot of great people through online gaming/music community.  In my lifetime I have met 8 people face to face who became my best friends in real life.  Always remember, don't jump the gun if you happen to meet a girl/friend online.  Find as much information about him/her to make sure he/she is who they say they are.  Otherwise, you could end up in a box or even bankrupt.   Be very careful. :)

Kinderclan, Those who understand the internet know that domain registration doesn't mean anything except that it is registered to an individual or organisation.

If John owns many hotels, Susan may run the day to day operation of one of those hotels.

Our site is registered in Australia, hosted in America, operated in Lao PDR and assisted in England. Therefore Australia is not the only country connected with our site.

We understand very well about Internet business, Why you choose "dot com" to be your site.(The most recognise and the cheapest)   registered in Australia,(weak in copy right law)  , Using some of the "know how" in other country.(Laos still lack of technology personel).

I understand there are cost involve and you have to recuperate the cost of running the site. all the people involve do need to eat... This is why you are concentrate on took most of the photo involve with the young girl so you can promote your introduction on line... it's a business decision.
This is your site...You can run the way you see fit!    
I rest my case!

JACKSPADE, I would say I'm pretty out going person and easy to talk to. ;D..   Also consider myself as well rounded person by both physical and knowledge  ::). hahahha bor mee khon yorng ga yorng tol eng la nor.. ;D

Buk IIWJ,That's great!! :)  I guess you have no problem meeting up with the poo sao.  After looking at the photo "eat me" dancer...I don't think I'll be hanging out with any "poo sao muang" with an identity crisis.  They don't deserve respect or anything from me.

JACKSPADE - After a case of beerlao.. I have no problem meeting sao noi.. sao yai.. sao toui.. sao joy 55555 :D

Speaking of Beer Lao, I noticed kids ages 6+ are are still hardcore drinkers.  I'm curious, is there any current age regulation as far as drinking is concern?  I remember I started drinking  home made rice beer at age 7-8 on a daily basis with my grandfather.  Thank god my parents came back for me from Thailand.  Imagine,  if they had not come back for me.  I'd probably  be an alcoholic, possibly have 6-10 kids with the Admin, kids and wife beating, arrested and who knows what else could have happen.  LOL

JACKSPADE - I'm not so sure about the law regard drinking age in Laos.  All I know, you can give $$ to kids at any age and send them out to get some beer for you.  Night clubs, bars, and even at restaurants you'll see bunch of minors consuming alcohols.  The government doesn't enforce it like the West.  Money is the king over there.

Buk IIWJ is right. Unfortunately, kids can buy alcohol and anyone can consume alcohol in Laos.

Most businesses do not care who you are, as long as you give them the money then they will give you the product/service.

Hopefully that will change in the future.

Does this rule apply to sex too?

How old - or young - do you have to be, before brothels will let you enter - gynecologically?

When I was in Laos last year I went to Hongview and Wind West.  They have live band.  Not a bad place to hang out especially Hongview right by the Maekong river.  Admin, have you ever been to those places?   ;)

No, I haven't.

Live music venues are plentiful in Vientiane that play Lao/Thai music. They are not my type of music but I don't mind listening to them at the restaurants.

I love The Bee Gees, All 4 One, Judy Garland, Wilson Phillips, Whitney Houston, just to name a few.

Do you have any Lao music cd/vcd collection at all?  It looks like you are more influence by materials from the west. There's nothing wrong with it.  I'm just curious.  As for myself, I don't have any Lao music cd/vcd at all, the only time I listen to it is when my parents pull out their cd or vcd collection. :)  I mostly listen to Eurodance, Alternative, 80s rock, 80s country, 50s classic, and some 90s rap.  

Back to topic, live concerts perform  by any Lao rock Bands are very enjoyable, doesn't matter who it is or where it is.  People get up, dance, eat, drink, sing, or even socialize.  It's in our blood. :)

No, they did not get up and dance when I was there. They were just looking at each others like should we dance or what? Nothing like club in USA bro.   ;D

In Vientaine, what do nightclubs usually play? Laos or Western or varieties?

I have Lao music CD's and VCD's, but do not often play them. I used to listen to the popular stars of Laos such as Ting and Overdance during their early release, but their music gets boring after a while.

The nightclubs in Laos usually play western Hip Hop, R&B, Dance, Pop, and Lao and Thai depending on the place.

How do you know of these singers?

Do they play these guys on the Lao radio stations?
I think their selection needs swift updating. ;D

Ask yourself, how do you know any of the singers in Laos?

Admin,

What American songs are popular in Laos right now? Do you enjoy any of them?

Well, I've heard songs by Lady GaGa and Canadian-born Justin Bieber, but no, I don't enjoy any of them.

I like Justin bieber but not Lady Gaga. I think she is crazy. There is 550,000,000 view on this vdo.

I hate that song sooooo much. If you go out in BKK you're guaranteed to hear it at least 3-4 times in one night. D:

I like any kind of music that's good. Rap, Rock, morlum, Thai, Lao.

Those two vids are wayyyy better, although they heavily copied the style. The first one is pretty hilarious too.

Good Lao bands - very modern.
