Congratulations Trev 🙏🏼 Luck has less to do with your success than hard work, and being a good man. Every positive comment I’ve made about you, and your channel has been earned. Thank you, and Happy Days🤟
Trev you are a nice guy, I came out in October 23 for 2 weeks. I came out and headed to the place I had only seen on line, said to the bike taxi soy pothole and he didn’t know what I was on about. It took me a while to remember the name to soy chiapoon sorry for the spelling, but he took me there and as soon as I walked in I had a young lady bathe my face with a cold towel. Then I met you and we sat down and I bought you a drink and you sat there and talked to me for a while and you gave a first timer sound advice. Had a great time and visited you a couple of times and met a few nice ladies, and met a few elsewhere but it’s a great place to visit. Met beer she waged her finger at me so must have done something wrong. You’re a great person and I thank you for welcoming me on my first visit to a place that I will come back to.
You’re starting to look slimmer and healthier. Keep up the good work I too was in a bad situation with my health but managed get a handle on things. Life is getting better each day Onwards and upwards mate
Bar owner in UK 24yrs just bought a jomteim condo loving the comment's.from you in this video. To you're followers this man is definitely speaking from the heart cheers will pop in soon defo
Love the channel, Trev, makes me want to get back. I built / owned a bar in China for a few years, so I understand many of your joys and sorrows! (PS- the Chinese introduced me to Thailand on a factory tourist trip in 1999). DRINKING: Yup, one of the biggest challenges to bar owners anywhere. SUGGEST: Have your bartender keep a "special" bottle of Vodka (water) on the shelf for you... make drinks for you out of THAT one when guests insist.. (then throw them a free one if they paid). You MUST limit your alcohol intake in that work.
It is easy to say lucky but it takes a lot of hard work to bring that luck and viewers. Which in turn brings them to the bar I normally would be there by now but the virus, costs of flight and costs of living has delayed my trip for years. But the bright side of things is the 60 day visa so next year looking to make full use of that and make up for lost time. The videos you make Trev keeps us in the loop of what is happening or changing in Pattaya area so it is like you know as a local.
Been to your place a few times , even though you have worked hard , you have also had a lot more luck than many new bar owners , you worked in the old Buzzin bar in Treetown and were able to build up a large Online community , The Bar crawls got you out of where you worked and got you loads of contacts around town being able to pick their brains , making the effort to learn the Language is spot on , it is always an advantage , the Location of your bar is also good , Soi Pothole is a great place , though admittedly it would have been better at the start of the Soi . There are too many Builders from Bradford and Painters from Plymouth that come on Holiday , sit in a bar drinking and think ( i could do this , it`s easy ) while never have been behind a bar in their lives , not even at home maybe helping out at the social club . You have to be a people person , friendly and jovial even with people you don`t like , it`s hard work with long unsociable hours .
It's an extraordinary commitment to film, edit and upload videos daily for four years, let alone replying to every comment, as you do. The lighting of the bar I saw in this video, really elevates it to a new level. I totally concur with the association between effort you put out, and patronage that comes into the establishment. No, it's not luck. This was an interesting viewing in your honest assessment of the previous year. I am glad to hear that you found a mamasan whom you work well with. I think the fact you are both strong-minded/strong-willed is an asset and complementary to each other.
Trev, your videos are one of the primary inspirations behind my retiring to Thailand. Your videos popped up in my feed in 2021, and I said, "Where the hell is Pattaya?" It started the research ball rolling. I visited in 2023 & it was exactly as you described it. And i loved it. I returned, for good I hope, early this year. You and 3 or 4 other guys on here educated me on the *reality* of this place, and I thank you for that. As for "slower bars." Hell those are my favorite! I get all the attention and laughs that I want w/o being surrounded by 20 drunk, screaming dudes. A big WIN!
I love your honesty Trev and yes, whilst luck may have played some part in your success, your bulldog tenacity with endless videos layed the ground work for your fan base. You put in the hard yards and you deserve the rewards and judging by that water park video, you have a genuine value and respect for your staff.
I think it was Arnold Palmer that responded to someone who said he was lucky by saying something like "Funny that the more I practice, the luckier I get". Put the effort in and you usually get some payback and you've certainly put the effort in. Congratulations on your anniversary.
Congrats on 1 year. Trev you are not lucky you just worked Fucking hard. You deserve it. 1 video a day is a insane amount of work. I have watched nearly every vid. Thanks mate
Good work Trevor! I visited the Buzzin Lounge many times last year and i always had a great time. The plan is to come to Pattaya in August and stay until January. Keep up the good work Trevor and don´t forget to rest sometimes. Kindly regards from a wet Copacabana, Reine.
Congratulations on the year and heres to many more to come 🍻 It was good meeting you Trev and Beer. both of you were big factors in making (via the live streams and meeting you both in person)my time at Pattaya most enjoyable.. Understandably you were pretty busy doing your thing.. Michael is a champ and the fact he took a few of us out after the pub crawl to see soi6 and walking street was above and beyond.. I cant wait to get back, but this time Ill be sure to spend more than 4 days as this is not even close to enough time to scratch the surface of things to do in Pattaya.
GREAT video, sage advice..... I know you were busy when I stopped in last month and complemented you on your weight loss. Hang in there. Great channel.
Congratulations Trev...I'll visit your bar soon, and having watched your channel for the past many years, I feel a real connection with you, and was touched by your admission to your personal issues. Your recent outing with the girls to the theme park seems to have done lots of good to you...I'm glad you've recognised your personal challenges and getting on top of these. I've been previously involved in the bar scene some decades ago, and the most common "problem denominator" is drinking with customers, who invariably become your friends. I had to be extra tough on myself to save my marriage and my day job, and I'm grateful that I challenged myself then. Sadly, most of my drinking buddies/colleagues from back then, have all passed away from alcohol related problems...it's the frightening reality.
A man who taught me how to make money always said "Sure i was lucky, but i put in the work to find that luck." Also, Mate, please retire in the next few years ? I was a bar manager back in the 90s for 2 years, and the grog nearly killed me for sure The pressure to be there for your locals and customers on holidays was massive, and yes, they want to party and drink with you That was my job ! We had to use chess pieces because the shouts would line up :) Good luck, Mate, and please take it easy on the Grog Be Smart 1 bottle of Vodka for you only and make it water and don't start drinking till 11 😢
Congratulations for your first year of the Buzzin lounge. Its all down to hard work buy everyone at the lounge, and not just luck, So well done to everyone at the lounge, see you all in July. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great run down on the last year. You do reap what you sow so if you are having success, it is because you have earned it. The other week you were on a bit of a downer. I hope you are getting on top of things mate and all the best in the future.
Pattaya is awesome, the energy, the people, the girls, the food, I love all of it, I'll be dropping in coming month at least once, when I'm there, should I miss you Trev, I'll be dropping by again another day 😊
A very interesting, enjoyable and honest video Trev, good on you. Clocks ticking, need to make my first visit there in the next 3 years :-)) Just waiting on the doctors here to patch me up a bit more then can start making some plans.
Life is always to be look forward while cherishing current, learning from past and to better everyday ...I wish you lots of success and good luck trev.
Come on, Trev... you say (paraphrasing) "if the girl wants to drink orange juice, let her drink orange juice"... take a bit of your own advice! No one should be offended if you make time to sit and talk with them but only have a soft drink. Larry never drank alcohol in Secrets all those years ago, and no one ever complained. No one needs to tell you what 4-5 hours sleep after [sometimes] heavy drinking is doing to you. I've never been to your bar, despite often staying around the corner in Soi Lengkee, as it's just not my thing these days. I grew out of that scene 10-15 years ago, but I'm happy for your success, and you're the only "Pattaya channel" I watch. You're by far the most personable bar owner in town, in my opinion.
For me Tee , you're not lucky you've worked hard ,for the success, you have, your getting out of it what you have put in , and you deserve credit for it ,plus as many of us know you reply to your emails and help us all, I would just like to thank you for everything, 👍👍👍
Hello friend, looking back over all the years that I have been following your channel, I just wanted to thank you. You have become a routine of my day. Every morning I start my day with coffee and your latest video. I used to love to travel, but due to circumstances I can no longer do that. Seeing your adventures and going to other areas in this beautiful country gives me the feeling that I am traveling again. You are a very open person and that makes me feel very connected to you. We are about the same age and maybe that is why I understand and respect you. So in short, thank you for all you have done and I wish you all the best for your future. Greetings from Taco 🙋🏽♂️🇳🇱🌮
I agree with you Trevor and the comments that success is not luck it is a boat load of hard work and effort. You get out of each day what you put in. Obviously luck plays a bit of a factor in life in some aspects, but yeah you are putting in the work for sure so congrats. You made smart moves recognizing the talents that both Beer and Michael bring to the table too.
Appreciate your dedication. Look after yourself and drink plenty of bottled water and sleep more. Take an afternoon power nap. Love low season and high season Hopefully, I'll see you later in this year
Don’t feel bad about refusing drinks from your customers, ask them to buy the girls drinks instead. Booze is a slippery slope , especially when you own the bar 😅
Should you wait 2 decades but sleep with less ladies. The longer you're the boss the more people admire you... right, bro... this could help your p.r. argh.@To_hot_to_get_cold
I was a bar manager in pattaya years ago , one thing that worked well, a Men’s golf league. Say on a Tuesday and Thursday. Meet at the bar , then golf, and half price drinks after for the players ❤
Congrats Trev! I was in last December/January a couple times and will be back this December and then only 2 more years till I move into The Base. I know with your hard work that I will be at your 5 year anniversary whether you are there daily or not, I know it will happen and I will not be missing that!
Thanks Trevor for telling us about your experience. I live in Colombia, S.A. I plan on selling my apartment and coming to Thailand. I want to see Pattaya and your bar.
Three year retirement plan......good move. I have done 12 years in Pattaya bars and like you am building a retirement home up't jungle. Will be selling Jenni bar soon; the job can be very enjoyable but also an all consuming life style. See you at the party tomorrow mate.
Well done Trev. Running a bar anywhere is tough. I have never done it, but I know some that have. You have to get so many things right to get the clientelle you want inside. Can't believe it is already a year since that Chyiapoon bar opened. Long may it continue.
My only regret is not buying more poofs. Jokes aside it's been a fantastic journey and all credit to you and the team for making it such a success. It's the hard work every day that makes it work or not.
haha cheers mate, you know how important you are to the success of what we have done together, this journey would never have started if we never had that beer together lol
I don’t know how I found your channel but your escapades with Ian and the pool shenanigans had me up at 4am local time so as not to miss a live plus watching the daily videos. Great guy all around..you and your entire crew (including the family sacrifices missing you ) amazing year ! Cheers to you and the Buzzin Crew ..have an amazing party ya’ll deserve a celebration.
CONGRATS!! I can only imagine. You are doing well Trev! I can also tell on your face sometimes....it's tough mate! If I have any smidge of advise...take time for yourself more often!! Keep going man!
Congratulations Trevor on your Buzzin Bar 1yr Anniversary!😃🍺🍹🍸❤️😎 I have enjoyed seeing all the videos about your bar's progress. I will stop by soon i hope, and shake your hand.👍
I've either lived in, or visited Central Pattaya for 14th months. Songkran, rainy season, Western New Year's, Loy Krathong, and every major traffic thoroughfare from Pattaya Klang to Threp Paya to Threpassit to Third Road. It is never, ever dead. Tree Town is always lively, Buakhao is always backed up, and not just w/ expats, and Beach Road is always a slog. Kite festivals, bikini races, veggie food fests, speedboat competitions, billiards tournaments, international football matches, night markets. I wish ppl, on and off YT, would stop saying "Pattaya is dead".. Try riding a bath bus through Pratamnak. Any month.
6:00 the problem is in the logo, it does not match the channel logo, the heart, a different font. either do the same or print out your photo and attach it to the bar's logo.
Love your videos Trev. You’re a straight up guy like me. I appreciate your honesty and candor. I’ll be visiting Thailand in the next year and I will definitely stop by and say hello. Thank you for all the tips and advice!
Micheal does a wonderful job While I was sitting in the bar he introduced himself and welcomed every customer. Spoke to the customer if introduced the girl of choice if that is what he wanted. Very friendly good bloke As you were as well Trevor. Although you appeared to have a few things on your plate you still took the time to say hello. Not many bars do this anymore
Cant beat a people watch outside, Everyone dont like air con its good to have the option outside no air con inside air con ive been to many bars if its to cold i just walk straight out
Sir,,commodore,,Trevor,,its been a privilege to know you.for as long you started your channel and remembering many moons ago your first videos with your original crew and interviews,,knowing that you are the only original person video n the city of Pattaya that reveals the inner intricacies of the way of the working bar lounges,,go go bars,,gents clubs and the whole entertainment industry we south Florida USA,,congratulate you,,Beer and bar mgr, Michael and the Buzzettes for such wonderful funny and entertaining time best n town,,!!❤😊😊 channel
Ben here now for almost a month now and have had a great time. Lots of girls and fun stuff everywhere . So called low season is a great time to come here 👌
When people say Pattaya is dead, that is my perfect time! It is all what you make it. I don't visit Pattaya to spend time partying with loads of other guys. I 'm looking to have good nights out and meet some new and interesting ladies. A dead a bar with 4 ladies is the bar I would gravitate towards. As you say, you never know. While it may sometimes be 'dead', relatively speaking, in terms of farangs, it is never dead in terms of potential company.
Thank you for this insights, and congratulations for "surviving" one year already. I personally don't mind if a bar is not busy, i'd rather go in if there are no customers just to jave my time to explore. In the end it all comes down to the girls behaviour. If you go in and all continue to watch the wall or their phones, than there is no point being there. If they all come up and want a drink it turns me off as well. But if you well welcome and zje girls actually notice you, smile and give you time to have a look, then it can be great no matter if the bar is busy or not. Wish you all the best for the next year(s) to come!
Well done mate you have helped me a lot with Pattaya from being a Pattaya virgin in January 23 been 3 times since and on my way back out in 2 weeks (can’t wait)will pop in the buzzing bar to see you so happy anniversary tomorrow mate and keep up the good work 👍
Trev , I take my hat off to you mate , you’ve put the hours in fella and you’ve made your own luck and I wish you all the success dude , I’ll be there later in the year and it’ll be a pleasure to hopefully meet you mate 🍻✌🏻
Mate, time to give up the alcohol ? Looks like you've had a good run. There are some really excellent zero beers, Guinness etc. Life is too valuable to destroy it.
Congrats to you and the team. Hard work pays a dividend when it's thought through beforehand. I can imagine it's stressful. When I see you and girls on the livestreams, it's like you're herding cats. And even with Beer (no offence Beer ! ) it seems you have to repeat simple requests several times until things happen as you want them to, and no doubt you have to continually check that things are done as you've asked them to be. I think the other bar owners are missing out in not visiting your bar. All the owners are in it together, and doing the rounds is great opportunity to share thoughts on how the local economy is going; intelligence on staff who may becoming available; staff to avoid etc. And you are so right about making your own fun. Maybe a lot of patrons there are solo travellers who aren't confident to do that. I hate going into any type of bar that is too full. A less crowded place gives an opportunity to strike up conversations with fellow holiday makers. And I guess if you're going into a bar with girls, why on earth would you want it to be packed with other punters. I just don't get that concept. And people shouldn't expect that you are there 24/7. You are the face of the bar, but people should be mature enough not to sulk if they don't get to meet you. You need your time away from work to recharge your batteries as we all do. All the best and greetings from Prague
I think that is one of the reasons why my bar is successful is the girls are under no illusion whatsoever not to pressure guys if I see that I sack them and I've already sacked two girls that thought they could bend my rules
Organise a time you be there so people can meet you and if they want a give you a drink put it over the bar then when you get on live stream thank them if you wanna meet up for a drink make a do of it so your not available 24/7 so you can have blow out once in while ...or say get on the non alcoholic drink it's still money coming in over bar ..so you don't get drunk but your still enjoying meeting fans
It's always about relationships plain and simple. Good relations with everyone results in a successful life and experience. Keep up the good work Trevor!
Hey Trev. Doing a video every day is like having a full-time job by time you do the editing - I take my hat off to you. Beer would certainly put you in your place at times - I met her at the dive bar a few trips back & got a shock later when I saw she was working at your bar. Good to see your doing alright after all the effort you are putting in. Keep your chin up. Cheers.
@@BuzzinpattayaLess calories but you will pickle your liver 7 times faster with the alcohol %, go easy man we dont want to lose the channel😂 congrats on the 1yr anniversary
Golfer Gary Player once said, "The harder I practice, the luckier I get." If I owned a struggling bar in Pattaya, I'd regularly visit BL to find out why you're so successful. Happy anniversary for tomorrow, Trev. Gutted I won't be able to attend. Best wishes for the coming year, and many years to come.
I was a bouncer in Vegas and my wife was a nude dancer. Retired now and peacefully single. lol. I'll stop by in Sept and check it out. I lived in Korea back in the early 80s. I love the Asians and their culture. spent a lot of time in South America and didn't really like their vide. Same with the EU. not my style. so, I'm coming back to Asia prob for good. Thailand, VN, Korea, Malaysia, Phillies, Bali and Japan will be my itinerary for the next year or two.
When I was in the British Army I had heat exhaustion on a 10 mile tab with full kit in the middle of June. I completed it but the look on the SSM was a very worried one. Next day saw the Doctor and he asked if I drink and what it was. Beer of course! He suggested I switch to whisky!
Congratulations Trev 🙏🏼 Luck has less to do with your success than hard work, and being a good man. Every positive comment I’ve made about you, and your channel has been earned. Thank you, and Happy Days🤟
Thank you mate
@@Buzzinpattaya You look like hell. Be careful.
When I went to the bar, found the best thing was, Trev was there, and he treats you with respect as one of his mates, each and every time.
Thanks mate

No one needs to tell you what 4-5 hours sleep after [sometimes] heavy drinking is doing to you.
I've never been to your bar, despite often staying around the corner in Soi Lengkee, as it's just not my thing these days. I grew out of that scene 10-15 years ago, but I'm happy for your success, and you're the only "Pattaya channel" I watch. You're by far the most personable bar owner in town, in my opinion.
Yeah I get ya
For me Tee , you're not lucky you've worked hard ,for the success, you have, your getting out of it what you have put in , and you deserve credit for it ,plus as many of us know you reply to your emails and help us all, I would just like to thank you for everything, 👍👍👍
I appreciate that
Great honest review. Sometimes in life we have to take risks to reapbthe rewards
Thank you and yes it has been a very challenging but a very rewarding last year in many ways
Hello friend, looking back over all the years that I have been following your channel, I just wanted to thank you. You have become a routine of my day. Every morning I start my day with coffee and your latest video. I used to love to travel, but due to circumstances I can no longer do that. Seeing your adventures and going to other areas in this beautiful country gives me the feeling that I am traveling again. You are a very open person and that makes me feel very connected to you. We are about the same age and maybe that is why I understand and respect you. So in short, thank you for all you have done and I wish you all the best for your future. Greetings from Taco 🙋🏽♂️🇳🇱🌮
Thank you so much mate have a good day
Congratulations on your Buzzin Lounge 1 year anniversary ! Keep doing what your doing 👍👋 Trev
Thanks 👍
I agree with you Trevor and the comments that success is not luck it is a boat load of hard work and effort. You get out of each day what you put in. Obviously luck plays a bit of a factor in life in some aspects, but yeah you are putting in the work for sure so congrats. You made smart moves recognizing the talents that both Beer and Michael bring to the table too.
Cheers mate
Appreciate your dedication. Look after yourself and drink plenty of bottled water and sleep more. Take an afternoon power nap. Love low season and high season
Hopefully, I'll see you later in this year
Thank you very much
Congrats on your one year anniversary! 👏👍
How time flies! You have a lot of tenacity! Will power. Make sure you rest too.
Thank you!
Don’t feel bad about refusing drinks from your customers, ask them to buy the girls drinks instead. Booze is a slippery slope , especially when you own the bar 😅
cheers mate
I'm like Trevour. But, I do little for a decade. Then, sleep with 250 women. Is this fluff meaning butterfly? Rough.
Should you wait 2 decades but sleep with less ladies. The longer you're the boss the more people admire you... right, bro... this could help your p.r. argh.@To_hot_to_get_cold
Great advice
Let them buy you a Rob Roy. Coke, grenadine and a cherry. Looks like fun, but it's the male version of a Shirley Temple. The OG mocktails!
You are clearly doing a great job and your staff clearly appreciate you and how you treat them. Have a great 1 year party!
Thank you so much!
You are looking so much better. Congrats
Thank you so much
I was a bar manager in pattaya years ago , one thing that worked well, a Men’s golf league. Say on a Tuesday and Thursday. Meet at the bar , then golf, and half price drinks after for the players ❤
I get ya but not for me
Congratulations on 1 year 🎉🎉
cheers mate
Congrats Trev! I was in last December/January a couple times and will be back this December and then only 2 more years till I move into The Base. I know with your hard work that I will be at your 5 year anniversary whether you are there daily or not, I know it will happen and I will not be missing that!
Thanks mate see you on ya return
Thanks Trevor for telling us about your experience. I live in Colombia, S.A. I plan on selling my apartment and coming to Thailand. I want to see Pattaya and your bar.
wish you all the best mate
Trev you are absolutely right we want all the bars to succeed and prosper to make pattaya fun and lively place
Would be nice to get that old pre- covid parry town atmosphere back ..
I never wish nor do I want anybody's business to suffer
Three year retirement plan......good move. I have done 12 years in Pattaya bars and like you am building a retirement home up't jungle. Will be selling Jenni bar soon; the job can be very enjoyable but also an all consuming life style. See you at the party tomorrow mate.
Nice one mate be great to see ya and glad your plans are going well too mate
Well done Trev. Running a bar anywhere is tough. I have never done it, but I know some that have. You have to get so many things right to get the clientelle you want inside. Can't believe it is already a year since that Chyiapoon bar opened. Long may it continue.
It has been an interesting journey for certain
My only regret is not buying more poofs. Jokes aside it's been a fantastic journey and all credit to you and the team for making it such a success. It's the hard work every day that makes it work or not.
haha cheers mate, you know how important you are to the success of what we have done together, this journey would never have started if we never had that beer together lol
More Poofs! Queen Victoria agrees😃
I don’t know how I found your channel but your escapades with Ian and the pool shenanigans had me up at 4am local time so as not to miss a live plus watching the daily videos. Great guy all around..you and your entire crew (including the family sacrifices missing you ) amazing year ! Cheers to you and the Buzzin Crew ..have an amazing party ya’ll deserve a celebration.
Thank you very much my friend that means a lot to me and I'm glad you enjoy what we do I hope to meet you in the near future
CONGRATS!! I can only imagine. You are doing well Trev! I can also tell on your face sometimes....it's tough mate! If I have any smidge of advise...take time for yourself more often!! Keep going man!
thanks mate, thank you!
Congratulations Trevor on your Buzzin Bar 1yr Anniversary!😃🍺🍹🍸❤️😎
I have enjoyed seeing all the videos about your bar's progress. I will stop by soon i hope, and shake your hand.👍
Awesome! Thank you!
Congrats on the anniversary of the bar. Wish i was in town to help celebrate. See you soon.
Thank you mate
Your success comes from your hard work. Look forward to visiting soon.
thank you mate
I will definitely call in for a few drinks when I'm over at Christmas Trev 😊😊😊
Sounds good!
Thanks for the Bar update and have a Great 1st anniversary!
cheers mate and than you for being part of the community for so long mate, than you
I've either lived in, or visited Central Pattaya for 14th months. Songkran, rainy season, Western New Year's, Loy Krathong, and every major traffic thoroughfare from Pattaya Klang to Threp Paya to Threpassit to Third Road. It is never, ever dead. Tree Town is always lively, Buakhao is always backed up, and not just w/ expats, and Beach Road is always a slog. Kite festivals, bikini races, veggie food fests, speedboat competitions, billiards tournaments, international football matches, night markets. I wish ppl, on and off YT, would stop saying "Pattaya is dead".. Try riding a bath bus through Pratamnak. Any month.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us
Trev, i think the bar is a success because of work! nothing comes easy especially in Pattaya . Well done to you and the team
Thank you very much
One of the most common comments I've heard over the years "l used to have a bar"
Hahaha
Congratulations on 1 yr anniversary, another informative, interesting enjoyable and honest video Trevor. Long Live Buzzin community.
Thank you kindly
6:00 the problem is in the logo, it does not match the channel logo, the heart, a different font. either do the same or print out your photo and attach it to the bar's logo.
Okay
Hi Trev thank you for the last 12 months entertainment "GREAT". Amazing work.Hope to get to see you one day.
& thank you for your efforts,
Regards
Thank you very much my friend it means a lot to me
I’m not surprised about owning and. Running a bar.. you get a better return leaving your money in the bank. 5% return
Well I can only disagree based on my own experience
Love your videos Trev. You’re a straight up guy like me. I appreciate your honesty and candor. I’ll be visiting Thailand in the next year and I will definitely stop by and say hello. Thank you for all the tips and advice!
Thank you very much
Owning a bar in Pattaya is great if you are an alcoholic with depression... perfect business !
Lol bless you, hope that made you feel good, it did give me a laugh, now go have a nice day and enjoy throwing your judgements out elsewhere
Sounds like advice from no one with experience of running anything other than his mother's bath
@@Buzzinpattaya oh it must of been another channel recently discussing depression in Pattaya
What does 'must of' mean? Imagine not being able to write in your own language...how ridiculous!
lol lol lol truth is funny
Congratulations!!!! Here's to many more years and thanks for the good times
cheers mate
You reap what you sow. You've done well.
I'll try my best that's all I can do
Micheal does a wonderful job
While I was sitting in the bar he introduced himself and welcomed every customer. Spoke to the customer if introduced the girl of choice if that is what he wanted.
Very friendly good bloke
As you were as well Trevor. Although you appeared to have a few things on your plate you still took the time to say hello.
Not many bars do this anymore
He's very good
Cant beat a people watch outside, Everyone dont like air con its good to have the option outside no air con inside air con ive been to many bars if its to cold i just walk straight out
Cheers mate

Thank you so much
Ben here now for almost a month now and have had a great time.
Lots of girls and fun stuff everywhere . So called low season is a great time to come here 👌
Sounds great!
Hey Trev! Respect for you , the channel and running the bar! A yoemans job for sure lol! You da man!
👏👊👏
cheers mate
Open a bar in Pattaya? I'm thinking of opening a rug and carpet shop in Persia
That's not a bad idea I believe they do carpets over there
When people say Pattaya is dead, that is my perfect time! It is all what you make it. I don't visit Pattaya to spend time partying with loads of other guys. I 'm looking to have good nights out and meet some new and interesting ladies. A dead a bar with 4 ladies is the bar I would gravitate towards. As you say, you never know. While it may sometimes be 'dead', relatively speaking, in terms of farangs, it is never dead in terms of potential company.
Well said
Sign tax might be the craziest tax I've ever heard of lol
it did catch me off guard lol
Thank you for this insights, and congratulations for "surviving" one year already. I personally don't mind if a bar is not busy, i'd rather go in if there are no customers just to jave my time to explore. In the end it all comes down to the girls behaviour. If you go in and all continue to watch the wall or their phones, than there is no point being there. If they all come up and want a drink it turns me off as well. But if you well welcome and zje girls actually notice you, smile and give you time to have a look, then it can be great no matter if the bar is busy or not. Wish you all the best for the next year(s) to come!
Thank you very much my friend you acting one hell of a journey
Your Health....Is Your Wealth.
So true
Well done mate you have helped me a lot with Pattaya from being a Pattaya virgin in January 23 been 3 times since and on my way back out in 2 weeks (can’t wait)will pop in the buzzing bar to see you so happy anniversary tomorrow mate and keep up the good work 👍
Thanks mate
utube was the key for your success as you said..
cheers
Congratz Trev, Can't wait to be back in Sept, Will definatly come back and say hello and do another bar crawl with the lads
Nice one thank you very much I look forward to welcoming you back
Appreciated the update regarding Ian, cheers Trev.
No worries
Trev , I take my hat off to you mate , you’ve put the hours in fella and you’ve made your own luck and I wish you all the success dude , I’ll be there later in the year and it’ll be a pleasure to hopefully meet you mate 🍻✌🏻
Thanks mate much appreciated
Mate, time to give up the alcohol ? Looks like you've had a good run. There are some really excellent zero beers, Guinness etc. Life is too valuable to destroy it.
cheers
Congrats to you and the team. Hard work pays a dividend when it's thought through beforehand. I can imagine it's stressful. When I see you and girls on the livestreams, it's like you're herding cats. And even with Beer (no offence Beer ! ) it seems you have to repeat simple requests several times until things happen as you want them to, and no doubt you have to continually check that things are done as you've asked them to be. I think the other bar owners are missing out in not visiting your bar. All the owners are in it together, and doing the rounds is great opportunity to share thoughts on how the local economy is going; intelligence on staff who may becoming available; staff to avoid etc. And you are so right about making your own fun. Maybe a lot of patrons there are solo travellers who aren't confident to do that. I hate going into any type of bar that is too full. A less crowded place gives an opportunity to strike up conversations with fellow holiday makers. And I guess if you're going into a bar with girls, why on earth would you want it to be packed with other punters. I just don't get that concept. And people shouldn't expect that you are there 24/7. You are the face of the bar, but people should be mature enough not to sulk if they don't get to meet you. You need your time away from work to recharge your batteries as we all do. All the best and greetings from Prague
Thanks.mate means a lot to me
I heard the bars have changed.
If bars want customers. They need girls that are genuine and not jyst trying to screw u for 10 lady’s drinks
I think that is one of the reasons why my bar is successful is the girls are under no illusion whatsoever not to pressure guys if I see that I sack them and I've already sacked two girls that thought they could bend my rules
@@Buzzinpattayaso the girls dont have drink targets and are under no pressure?
Well done Trev 👏 and Good luck with your buzzing bar 🍸
Thank you so much
Organise a time you be there so people can meet you and if they want a give you a drink put it over the bar then when you get on live stream thank them if you wanna meet up for a drink make a do of it so your not available 24/7 so you can have blow out once in while ...or say get on the non alcoholic drink it's still money coming in over bar ..so you don't get drunk but your still enjoying meeting fans
cheers mate good suggestion
Interesting video Trev. All the very best going forward. It's still in my plans to get to the Buzzin bar one day
Nice one thank you
Don’t feel the need to drink you can just say due to my health issues I cannot anymore Don’t ruin your health with alcohol is not worth it
Cheers mate
It's always about relationships plain and simple. Good relations with everyone results in a successful life and experience. Keep up the good work Trevor!
Cheers mate
Happy Friday podium challenge 👍 😃
Smashed it mate BOSH!
Hey Trev.
Doing a video every day is like having a full-time job by time you do the editing - I take my hat off to you.
Beer would certainly put you in your place at times - I met her at the dive bar a few trips back & got a shock later when I saw she was working at your bar.
Good to see your doing alright after all the effort you are putting in.
Keep your chin up.
Cheers.
Yeah it does come with demands that's for sure
i'm no expert but surely larger is less damaging than vodka?
except if you use water and make the punter think its vodka lol .Thats what i would do .Why damage your health for your average mingy monger .
Vodka has far less calories
@@BuzzinpattayaLess calories but you will pickle your liver 7 times faster with the alcohol %, go easy man we dont want to lose the channel😂 congrats on the 1yr anniversary
Golfer Gary Player once said, "The harder I practice, the luckier I get."
If I owned a struggling bar in Pattaya, I'd regularly visit BL to find out why you're so successful.
Happy anniversary for tomorrow, Trev. Gutted I won't be able to attend. Best wishes for the coming year, and many years to come.
Cheers mate
I was a bouncer in Vegas and my wife was a nude dancer. Retired now and peacefully single. lol. I'll stop by in Sept and check it out. I lived in Korea back in the early 80s. I love the Asians and their culture. spent a lot of time in South America and didn't really like their vide. Same with the EU. not my style. so, I'm coming back to Asia prob for good. Thailand, VN, Korea, Malaysia, Phillies, Bali and Japan will be my itinerary for the next year or two.
I look forward to meeting you
When I was in the British Army I had heat exhaustion on a 10 mile tab with full kit in the middle of June. I completed it but the look on the SSM was a very worried one. Next day saw the Doctor and he asked if I drink and what it was. Beer of course! He suggested I switch to whisky!
I can relate to those tabs myself
Sounds like steven owns the bar and you are the caretaker
Well you got that 100% wrong mate
Congratulations on your Buzzing Anniversary Trevor 🙏🏻🙌🏼
Thank you 🙌
