Some many choices, so little time.
Thinking of going to Neverland today, thinking about playing some 21 and doubling down with Tink.
I will of course give all you fellow mongers a follow up in the afterglow.
Did anyone else receive this PM?
Here it is:

Hi,
I'm a newcomer to the site, and I read your report of an experience I'd love to duplicate. But I don't understand how one finds out where the location is for the experience. So please clue me in if possible. Thanks.

Anybody care to reply?

Back from Iraq. A little help?
Me and my boys just got from a long tour of duty (see below) and are looking for a great place to get a good massage in DC tonight/tomorrow. We're in town for a few days and its been a long f'ing time!
One of my buddy's best friend gave him this website and said we would be able to find some good info. From the looks of your postings, it appears that no info is available for "newbies". I've never posted a damn thing! However, recognizing the circumstances I thought you may be able to help some vets out. Where the hell is this place with Wendy, Pink, etc?
No offense taken if you guys can't help us out. I'm sure we'll find something.
Respectfully,
SF

It would not be appropriate to give you the location of Neverland or Wonderland at this time. On the other hand, I do respect what you and your buddy's have done for us, so there is some info in your Private Messages Box.
I use the PM since there are others that lurk here and contribute nothing that need to do their own digging. Effectively, I'm calling your military service a worthy contribution.
Please also read the next post up. It should help a lot if you are new to the AMP scene.
Enjoy,

Dreamer,
Welcome to the DC board. Thank you for the report, which was your first here in the USA. I wanted to address your opening lines and, for lack of better words, [b]your flame bait[/b]:
[QUOTE=Dreams]I read all the crap on this thread form all those DC vets ...
Seems you want to keep all those info for yourselves, that's your right, although not in the spirit of sharing info which should be the rule on this forum.
Anyway, I am not as selfish... [yada,yada,yada][/QUOTE]I am apparently one of those selfish "DC Vets" that you have pigeonholed as posting a bunch of crap and not sharing. So to your comments, I say fuck you very much.
Of course, the DC Vets that you accuse of not sharing have posted the vast majority of the information and reports that make this the best Massage parlor thread on USG. I am truly fucking sorry I don't have the money or time to try all the girls in all the AMPs so I can give you a scientific comparison along with all their cell phone numbers (although if you send the money, I will find the time ;) ).
If you would have taken the time to understand the issues in DC, you would realize why us selfish DC vets have chosen to do business the way we have:[list=1][*]LE monitoring the board is an ever-present concern-we lost all of our AMPs for months in the last raids.[*]Places like Neverland get 3-8 doorbell rings an hour, and they only have 5 girls on a good day. They are over capacity! It is a good thing and we wish to protect it.[*]We share by PMs to contributing members. It is a judgment call, but the level of information is based on the credibility the member brings to the board.[*]The RULE ON THIS FORUM is that this forum is what we make it (as long as we play using El Hefe's rules, which we generally observe)[/list][quote]I feel that if I am in the US and ask for info, you should consider the global post numbers. [/quote] I agree. I respect you as an ISG senior, but your expectation that we check every newbie post against the ISG site is, well, dumb as hell. It is up to you, the ISG Senior member, to mention your credentials when seeking information.
I did check your claim to be an quality ISG senior member, (your registration dates are the same for both sites, so I know you are the same person) and knowing that, I would have gladly passed you any intel [b]by PM[/b]. Unfortunately, I didn't see your name in my inbox.
I suggest being polite like several genuine newbies I have recently had the pleasure of welcoming this very week (Striker and WTF come to mind immediately, there are others if you RTFF). In short, your cavalier attitude has scored you no points with the "DC vets." OTOH, If you choose to play nice with us, I for one have a short memory and would love to have you as part of the community rather than a pissed off outsider. It is your call, my friend.

Reposting of a Report of Distinction
I did not write this, but it occurred to me that with all the newbies asking stuff, we need some definitive general background stuff for them to read. I will also be linking to this from the [post=530040]Reports of Distinction[/post] so we can find it more easily.
[url=http://members.lycos.co.uk/ampdude/newpage.html]Additional reading about AMPs in general[/url] (quoted below) with [post=92355]comments by one of the masters[/post].
[color=red]Editors (LL's) notes in Red[/color][Quote=Randy Boise, Randy's Guide to Asian Massage Parlors, 2/11/2002] I've been visiting Asian Massage Parlors (AMP) for years now, having gotten my first taste as schoolboy in an Asian Country. While they don't always deliver a 100-year flood kind of experience, they are great for their availability, cost and general quality. Numerous people have commented about bad experiences in AMPs but I believe, that in the large, they just didn't know how to go about getting what they wanted. Out of literally hundreds of visits, I've had only one bad experience (she thought I was a cop or something) in an AMP and the Mamasan wanted to make it up to me.
Disclaimer. This guide does not encourage you to take part in any illegal activity.
[b]The setup[/b]
AMPs everywhere are amazingly similar in their structure and operation. It usually consists of a small entry area with a services/prices sign, doorbell button and a small window. Inside, it's usually a warren of corridors and small rooms. Some (like Golden Flower, in SF) have a waiting area inside where you can pick out your girl. They often have a separate exit where you can leave and avoid the next guy coming in.
[b]Costs[/b]
Your mileage will vary but typically, the basic service (massage, body shampoo, …) will cost as little as $ 40 for a half hour to $ 80 for an hour. [color=red]DC standard fare is $60/hr[/color] There are lots of variations so you will need to think on your feet. I prefer to opt for the lower cost entry fee and give more tip money to the girl. For additional services, you will negotiate with the girl for her tips (more on this later). Full service, if available, usually runs $ 100 to $ 120. [color=red]DC standard fare is $100[/color] For oral, its usually $ 60-80 and a hand release is typically $ 40 but sometimes can be had for the basic package price.
Many places have additional services like body shampoo, spa/hot tub, sauna, etc. These can be really great additions. For example, body shampoo can be very fun. It usually consists of her washing you all over but is a great prelude to the off-menu extras.
Your total price will often be affected by local pricing. San Francisco pricing is always a bit above the average. For example, Golden Flower girls usually ask for 140-160 for extras (meaning closer to $ 200 total). So, you wont pay much below $ 140 but should never pay more than $ 200. The fancier the place, the higher the price.
I suggest you leave your wallet in your car or home or what ever. Take only enough money to cover what you want. She can't shake you down for money you don't have.
[b]Getting In[/b]
Your first goal is to get past the entry area. You enter, ring the bell and wait nervously while some one comes to greet you. It's often the Mamasan. She usually weighs about 200 lbs and has an unfriendly demeanor. In some places, the next available girl greets you. Usually she says "what you want?". Here's where you need to be creative. Your goal is to become her friend.
If you know nothing about the place, ask for what ever appears to be their standard "legit" offering. Like body shampoo or massage or hot towel wrap. You get the picture. Never ask for a service that isn't on the menu. I once asked for a massage and they said "no have massage". After some uh-ing and ah-ing I got inside but it was very uncomfortable. Never, ever ask for anything illegal. You'll be back on your way in no time flat! Also, you don't need to opt for the 1 hr service, there appears to be little enforcement of the time.
If you have read reviews and know a girl's name, ask for her. I usually try to pick a review that is old enough so there is a good chance she's not there anymore. You will get something like "she not here now". I usually say, "that's too bad, she was really nice". Then ask who else is available. A couple of times, I've gotten the girl that I asked for. I just play along. She's probably seen hundreds of guys and she doesn't want to upset you so she'll play along too.
In either case you will get The Question. "You been here before?" There is only one correct answer – Yes. (OK, if it's a BRANDNEW place, maybe not.) The reason for this is that they will often put you through a much more stringent test (more on this later) but more importantly, you wont get their best girl. Repeat customers get better service.
This is often followed by "who you see?". Be creative. Forgetting her name is always ok. Describe an average Asian woman. Be calm and deliver it smoothly. Unless you look like Law Enforcement, you wont get the third degree. One time I asked for a girl I had seen and Mamasan said "nobody that name ever here". I just shrugged and said, "I must be wrong about the name". I got in.
At this point you may be asked to pay for the service you selected. Sometimes they bring your change later so don't be alarmed if they don't give it immediately. One thing that is very good is to give Mamasan a tip. Ten or twenty dollars goes a long way towards making her like you and picking a better girl for you. I had one MamaSan really like me a lot – she'd hug me when I left and I always got her best girls. All for a measly $ 20. Good investment, huh? Also, it doesn't hurt to let them see your tip money when you pay for the room. Just another signal that you are real.
In some AMPs, the girl will take a lump sum payment for the room and extras at the start. That is always a good sign but be aware that there is a risk that they aren't a full service place.
Never, ever mention reviews or the internet. I have heard of guys being turned away at that point. These outfits want to fly under the radar so any kind of publicity is bad in their minds. Also, remember to smile at her. She's human.
[b]The Room[/b]
OK, so you made it past the Mamasan! There are usually 2 possibilities: you get shown to a room or you get to make your girl selection. You can figure out how to pick a girl on your own. Just one thing, I never pick the prettiest girl (unless the rest are all total woofers). This is because all the guys pick her and you are much more likely to get great service from number 2 or 3. She will then take you to the room.
If you get shown to the room, it means Mamasan is making the selection for you or the girl that met you is yours. The room is usually about the size of a walk-in closet with a massage table, maybe a chair and a little table to put stuff on. They all seem to have that St Vincent DePaul ambiance. After some chit-chat she will probably tell you to disrobe or get comfortable or something similar and then leave. Some times this is where the money for basic service gets taken. Once you are alone in the room, disrobe immediately. This is very important. Getting naked is the first sign that you are a real customer. It's ok to put a towel on but let her see your cock by being "careless" with the towel. This is essential to establishing a level of trust between you and her. At a new place, I will often take my tip money out and put on the table. That's a good signal.
At some point you will be offered a shower, body shampoo or similar. You should take it. There are several reasons for this. Cleanliness is very important to Asians. If she washes you, it can be fun and help send the right signals (see below). It helps to establish you as a real customer.
[b]The Test[/b]
Your girl will enter the room to start the basic service. It is critical that you let her know that you're a hobbyist. You should try to give her a hug at some point. Body contact is always a good way to send the right signals. I usually try to run my hands over her ass while hugging. Having an erection she can feel is very helpful as well. If it's a massage, you will lie on your stomach and she will start doing her thing. She will ask you questions (who you see, where you live, where you work, …). They are designed to give her a sense of you. At this point you need to be sending signals to her that you are looking for more than a massage. Here are some things that seem to work: Have an erection; Drop your hand down and rub her legs as she massages you; Make satisfied sounds when she rubs you ass; Hump your ass up every time she gets near it. I particularly like ass play. She will often focus on it and it can lead to some fun. By the way, at that point, you've probably passed the test.
I've had some fun tests. One girl walked up to me as I sat on the massage table and pulled her shirt up. I buried my face in her boobs and we were off to the races. Some times the initial hug can turn into heavy foreplay. Just keep your wits about you and don't hesitate to take some gentle liberties.
[b]Extras[/b]
Assuming you have passed the test, she will ask you what else you want. Often this happens after she is done massaging your back and flips you over. I usually whisper in her ear "everything". Then she will ask how much you want to pay. I often start at 80 and settle for 100. She will try for 120 or 140. They almost always settle for 100 but more popular girls can command a higher price. Girls in the fancier places always ask for more. Also, if you've been really nice, she may go a little easy on the price. What ever you do, never pay 80 or more for less than full service. This changes their pricing structure and makes it hard to get good service at reasonable prices. Some times they don't even talk price – that means she trusts you. Make sure you compensate her fairly in that case.
Some times the above dance gets cut short. She may decide that you are legit and go straight for the extras. I've had this happen a number of times and while it makes it a little easier, I actually enjoy the dance. The good ones will often give you the basic service even if you got the extras up front however, a fair number of the girls want to move you along as soon as possible.
[b]Special Situations[/b]
Some times you will just get a girl that doesn't do extras. No amount of signals help. That's life. Don't be rude or angry. You should get the basic service you agreed on, though. Note that you may have sent the wrong signals. She will let you know if she's not available for extras by rejecting your signals. It will be obvious. However, they sometimes do this if they still aren't sure about you yet. So don't give up immediately.
If you want special things like kissing, Greek, etc., you will need to ask the girl about them when negotiating. Note that these are fairly rare but it doesn't hurt to ask.
Sometimes they give you a real hound. I've never had an absolute dog but several that weren't "my type". It's your right to say no and ask for some one else. Keep in mind that this doesn't always lead to getting a better-looking woman and, in my opinion, almost never leads to a good experience. So, I usually walk out in that case. Some times they offer some one else at that point. Be nice about it and act sad but not angry. They usually do want to keep you happy.
What about a visit from Law Enforcement? This happens from time to time. Given the structure of how people gain admission, its likely that this will not be a totally rude surprise and you will have time to prepare for a visitor in your room. Stay calm. There is nothing illegal about getting a massage or sauna or what ever. This actually happened to me during, shall we say, a very inappropriate moment. There was a signal that I missed but she didn't. I put a towel on and sat on the massage table for what seemed like an hour. The fellow that entered the room was polite and only asked me a few questions. I complained about not getting my massage yet and he moved on. After they left, we finished up!
[b]Finding an AMP[/b]
[color=red]Go to Reports of Distinction and look up the address of the AMP you see reported about here.[/color] They are everywhere! I've found them in every major North American city I've ever visited and lots of smaller towns have them as well. A stroll through the phone book usually helps. You can usually tell by their name. It often is some Asian sounding name. Some of them use works like Spa, Acupressure, Sauna, Massage, etc in the name. Places that use terms like LMP (Licensed Massage Provider) or your local equivalent typically aren't an AMP. Though, I have visited a couple that had LMP on the sign. They are usually in somewhat run down buildings in strip malls and such. Typically, all the windows are curtained off and the outside lighting is dim.
The Internet is a great place to do your research. [color=red]USA Sex Guide,[/color] Tbe Big Doggie, The Erotic Review, Usenet and numerous other sites have lots of good information. You will be able to find places that have what you are looking for and even get girl's names. My current favorite AMP girl is one I found that way.
[b]Treat the Ladies Well[/b]
Please, please, please, do not treat these girls badly. They are people and have feelings. A lot of them are illegal aliens and spend nearly their entire time in America (or where ever) in the parlor. They sleep there, eat there, and work there. You will get a much better experience if you are kind to them.
[b]Conclusion[/b]
There are lots of great AMPs out there. Don't hesitate to try it out. [/quote]
Like Spearguy, who originally posted this link, I agree that you need to ask for the 45min to 1 hour option unless they know you and you have the time. It gives more time for the "dance," and they are enforcing the short times more often now.
I also disagree with the notion of tipping the mamasan.
