Well guys, as promised I’m trying to keep my promise by keeping up with my NEW style of Bar Hop report, focusing on a single bar and reporting on it in more detail.  Now that I have finished my position at Lollipop & Treasure Island Bars, I hope to begin to get back to my Bar Hopping ways and enjoy the scene a little bit more often.  Now that I have given myself a little room to operate I also decided it was about time to settle in with the NEW Honeyko.  Those may remember my dalliance with Jella.  Although we had been on and off a bit here and there, I guess she has my heart, is under my skin, or whatever clinical or dermatological phrase might best apply.  Even though Cooper is still renting a room from me, and the fact my modest house only has one CR;  I still asked Jella to move in with me, and she did – Like the old TV commercial use to say: “Hey, there’s always room for Jell-a.”

The new Honey-Ko "Jella"

Those of you who follow my barhop reports have long known I have been a fan of Perimeter Road bars, and when I went to work on Fields Ave, I hardly had the time to visit my favorite old haunts to see what’s been going on in my absence.  One of my Perimeter Road favorites was always Eruption Bar.  Eruption Bar is larger than many Fields Avenue bars, however it’s a little off the beaten path.  It’s located on a little side street off Perimeter Road behind Dr. Holmes Bar, just across the road from Bambinos Restaurant.

Entrance to Eruptions

Eruption Bar opens at 3pm and closes at 1am.  Like many Perimeter Bars, they feature extremely inexpensive bar drinks for both Customers (60P) and Lady Drinks (110p).  I really like the physical layout of Eruptions.  This is not some small Perimeter Road bar. Eruption Bar is larger than many of popular Fields Ave bars.  The stage is HUGE and let me tell you brothers, they need it.  There are nearly 200 girls in Eruption Bar at the moment.  I mean really a FUCKING Lot of girls!  The stage itself is a large U-shaped stage.  There is a typical “perverts row” bar seating all around the stage.  Each side of the stage has another elevated circle stage with a pole.  You’ll usually find 3 or 4 Eruption cuties dancing in the circles jockeying for “Pole Position.”

On either side of the stage as you face it there are extremely large booths.  The sightlines from the booths are OK, but less than ideal for scooping the action, particularly during the many show/events that Eruption Bar hosts.  What the booth are perfect for are groups of folks that want to party together and be comfortable doing so.  Those that remember back, Eruption Bar was where me and my friends chose to party this past New Years Eve. It was the perfect venue.  The booths are also great for 2 to 3 guys to sit and drink with a couple of gals each.  At Eruptions’ Lady Drink prices, you can easily afford to table 2 or 3 girls without fear of going broke.

On the subject of Double Lady Drinks, I have mixed feelings.  Firstly, single or double, I will not buy a Non-alcoholic drink.  No iced tea, no mango juice, and never a 200-300 peso Gatorade.  I will buy a bottle of SML Double Lady Drink, but I ask the gal drinks it in a glass with ice, as I do.  In my experience, this yields more total sit time than a single rum coke or gin tonic.  Now, if I don’t know the girl yet, or feel vague about our chemistry, I’ll order her a single 1st and then if all’s good, move to a double.  Especially now with the NEW Honeyko, I’m not about the EWR or interview, so I’m usually content to buy drinks for gals I know and enjoy their company.

Back to bar design, I think the best stage views are from the large “Pub Height Tables” and comfortable stools facing the stage.  In fact, with the number of girls packed in Eruption Bar these table often become mini stages themselves.  When I was in prepping this report on one occasion, each of the table had 1 or 2 dancing atop, a very pleasurable sight to see.  Imagine, a huge stage filled with gals and then every table you look around you, including yours, with a dancer or two on top.  Just glance up!

In the back of the bar you’ll find what is likely one of the nicest CR’s in Angeles City. Guys, you know you are in a third world country, and one day, when you least expect it, THE DROP with hit you.  I have a certain comfort in knowing that if it does come today, there is somewhere non-disgusting to do whatever business needs to be done!  Further, the CR always has hand soap, towels and rubbing alcohol for your hands.  So clean, so simple.  Why can’t every bar in AC manage this oh-so-simple formula?  Eruption Bar, we recognize this happens because the management makes sure the CR is cleaned and stocked.  It is no accident – AND THANK YOU FOR THAT!

Eruptions Table-Top Dancers

Though I have a custom pool cue, I’m no Minnesota Fats.  However, Eruption does feature two very good pool tables.  There always seems to be several very talented players waiting for their turn to shoot!  The bar host pool leagues several times a week.  I can’t think of a better venue for the dual purpose pleasure of shooting a game of eight-ball and getting your jollies watching many fine looking dancers strut their stuff on stage and on the tables all around you!  Did I mention that this bar has a lot of fucking girls working here????

Another nice feature of the pool area is the many and varied photos from Clark Air Base back in the day.  The most interesting photos are of Mt. Pinatubo as she was blow her chunks into the sky.  My understanding of the history of Eruption Bar is that it in fact occupies a building that was left derelict by Mt. Pinatubo; only fitting that the bar takes its name and theme from that tragic event.

If you can tear your eyes away from the MANY, MANY fucking girls packed into Eruption Bar, take a few minutes to check out Eruption Bar’s Mini Eruption Museum. The photos are great and very beautiful in a scary, creepy, kind of way.  There a couple of big comfortable booths in the pool room as well; a quieter space to chat up a lady or sit with friends and drink.  The pool room is also accessible from Dr. Holmes Bar.  Even though the pool area offers nice sight-lines into the main bar and stage, it remains somewhat quieter and more placid the main room.

Eruption Bar is part of the Perimeter Road Group that programs several weekly events: “Monday Madness,” “Wednesday Bash” and “Saturday Night Fever”.  The other bars in the marketing group are:  Foxy, Club Stampede, Dr. Holmes Bar, Shooterz and Emotions. These weekly events are extremely popular, in particular with local ex-pats.  When you attend these events you’ll see familiar faces at the events each week.  The shows in my mind are a smidgen better than the Doghouse, WOW Wednesday, Manic Monday events. They seem to be better organized, and the shows themselves are much more entertaining. There is a consistency in the performances, you can see the girls rehearsed and the choreography and costumes are very professional.  Also, the girls seem to really enjoy their performances.

Loads of girls at Eruptions

I’m not knocking the Doghouse events.  God knows, I was a big part of them the past several months, however, the Perimeter Group shows are more consistent and of slightly better quality.  I particularly enjoyed Monday Madness show at Eruption this week.  The Eruption Bar Spotlight Dancer performed an awesome routine, fronted by Paula, who is certainly one of the best dancers in all of Angeles City.  Eruption Bar, and the entire Perimeter Road Group has their heart in the right place as well.  No Grinches here; Eruption Bar gives back to the community.  The entire group supports The RSL Children’s Charity with proceeds from their events.  Furthermore, Eruption Bar donates to the charity every time a customer throws Ping Pong Balls, Rings the Bell or buys any of its Logo Merchandise.  That’s nice, isn’t it?

Well, the bottom line…what most guys want to know:  What about the girls????  Well, dudes…it’s all about the girls and man let me tell you, Eruption Bar has a SHITLOAD of girls, nearly 200!!  I know I’m repeating myself but OMG, it’s a freaking lot of ladies in this bar.  There is something for every taste:  SPINNERS, Eruption Bar Has ‘Em!  CHERRY GIRLS, Eruption Bar Has ‘Em!  TALL GIRLS, Eruption Bar Has ‘Em!  JOLLIBEE GIRLS, Eruption Bar Has ‘Em!  LESIBIANS, Eruption Bar Has ‘Em!  PREGGO GIRLS, Eruption Bar Has ‘Em!  (Oh but it’s the owners wife so maybe stay away from her you sickos!)  Bottom line, like a mega car dealership back home – Eruption Bar has an ass for every seat!
