Well, i real Thai style disco is pretty different from one in the west. Firstly, there is usually a live band that plays all night with only an actual disco going on at the end.
Most disco dont have a dance floor and so the patrons spend the night bopping away at their respective tables.
Thai disco style is that you mainly socialize with the friends you have come with and so there isnt much contact with the other tables however since you are farang you can get away with chatting up lots of girls all over the show.

As this is Thailand the dress code is much more laid back than where i come from and you could even get away with shorts at most places. in comparison to the west, no the girls dont dress THAT provocatively.

There are a few Western style discos in Bangkok that actually have dance floors and just play rave all night. Most Westerners here prefer them to the Thai style ones. From the top of my head i can think of CM2 at Siam Square, Lucifer at Patpong and Narcisus On Sukhimvit 23 etc....

The authorities over the past couple of years have taken a certain enjoyment to 'busting' discos and having all the patrons inside do a 'pee pee' test so its very risky to go popping any illegal substances before going to a disco especially in BKK.

I do prefer the Thai style discos though as i like live music. And one thing good about Thailand is that you dont have to queue up at the door for an hour before you get in.

Oh yes, finally the restrooms. You will find that there are attendants in all the Mens whose job it is to give you a massage while you pee and a wet towel to freshen up with before you go back to your table. A tip is asked for of course.
