Pubbing, the other world.

The band went down the stage after their last song. The stage turned dark as colourful lights dimmed. Drinks were almost finish. The smell of smoke filled the air, as people sat down after the excitement, lighting up cigarettes.

After a few minutes, the stage was bright with green, yellow, red lights, yet again. Techno music started as the DJ ran his fingers smoothly on the turntable. Three girls wearing only hot pants and sexy tops swiftly went up the stage on their high heels. Beers were continuously being poured into glasses, as people started getting excited to move their bodies. The night had just begun.



On Saturday I went to a pub at Sri Hartamas with friends. We were going to watch my friend's friend's band performing.

Yet more than watching a band performance, the pub itself offered much more surprise, and entertainment.

After the band performed their last song, I was surprised that there was extra entertainment that night. A troupe of sexy dancers who called themselves "Sexy Girls" grabbed the stage and everyone's attention, as they danced sexily on high heels and in super short pants and luring tops.

The night got heater as the girls moved their stage to the middle of the pub, dancing between the ceiling and the sofas. Light balls of luminuous colours illuminate their body movements as they walked and moved in "sex-suggesting" movements. People got excited, some guys gave one shot of beer to the girls, cheering as they drank it in one gulp.


Sexy Girls were not the only surprise that caught my attention that night. Things happened under the table were equally eye-opening as well.

Men in their middle ages gathered at a corner, drinking up jug and jug of beer. In each of their arms, a sexy waitress sitting on his lap, or stand hugging his waist, or caressing him. And believe me, the "caressing" was not just kissing on the cheek or touching the face. It was more than that, much MORE. And I'll leave the space for imagination for you.

As one of the Sexy Girls did her stunning movement of opening wide her legs upside down, and one of the uncles opposite caressed the whole body of the sexy waitress, I felt sick.

And so this was the world of sexy dirty money.

The night ended as the trance music started to fade. DJ Ice came over to our table and talked a little, pouring beer into the glasses. My friends and I chit-chat for a while before leaving the pub as it closed.


It was the first time ever I went such pub and pub-bing in such a way, watching dancers dancing sexily, waitresses caressing customers. I've always known such a world exists among us, so much nearer than we thought. However when the world was so near to be observed, the feeling was totally different.

The heart beats that sync together with the techno music. The smell of cigarettes sinking into the clothes. The urge to keep watching as the dancers danced like what-ever. The feeling of sickness when peeping what people were doing under the table. The struggle not to fall, as the world of women, sex, and alcohol came so close.

"Clubbing brings out the devil inside you," a girl friend once said.

And pubbing, it surfaces the doubt in the world you're living, the values, the worths, the things you thought is important.

Pubs, the place to forget all about you know about this world. And start a new rule. Try it if you dare to.


P/S : But I would not encourage one to.
P.P/S : The band was cool, they were playing canto rock and some classic english rocks.
