I usually do 60 minutes with new people, after I build a rapport, I extend to 90 minutes. Lately, only, Dylan and Tass (@Babylon) fit this bill. I experience at 27-Spa with Yuri, was less than what I expected.
on tipping:
I tip 30-40 for an hour, for 90 minutes, with interactivity I tip between 45-80. I understand most "therapists" make 1/3 of rate. Less interactivity = less tip. I am vocal about my displeasure (when/if) it happens. I haven't visited Yu-Ping, Yeah Man W Spa, Times Sq, or shangri la...

Dylan (Babylon) is on vacation thru Nov 19. Babylon is still open, his staff is still working. Note: after hours 11pm-7am, there is a staff of one male and one female person there, although the female (Chinese) body worker doesn't speak English well (mostly services the STRAIGHT men who frequent Babylon. The male staff is all gay and all Asian.

Went to Babylon on Monday: had new boy Tash (or Tass) , Thai about 25, newbie, needs some training, started with my back/legs, flipped me over started on my feet, little pressure, head massage. No HE.

could be the same Danny who was taking private clients in Elmshurst, and switched back to Babylon. If this Danny is the same person then he is Asian, cute, about 5'10" good skills.

Babylon UPDATE: Michael is GONE, his replacement is a very cute Asian, although I haven't experienced him yet. Dylan is still perfect.

I went back to see Dylan at Babylon. Still a great, hands on massage, hit every area, cracked my toes, fingers, etc... felt wonderful afterwards. Just 60 minutes, used to take 90 minutes with him, but he said he can't do more than an hour, too busy... Just him and Mike, and some woman, yes a woman (must be for the straight dudes who wander off the street). Tip $40 : Massage $55

Sunny Boy Spa in NYC seems to require payment before services, somewhat a bad practice, especially if you want to extend the massage past the paid amount of time.
