Read the link mikesouth posted. It gives excellent advice. I want to reiterate a few things about it:
Never, ever, ever say anything bad about the royal family. Don't even mess with an image of them, or tear the paper money (which has their images). The Thai tend to be a calm and polite people, but that will piss them off faster than almost anything.
Do not do ANY drug while there, not even marijuana or ecstasy. Don't even try it alone in your hotel room. Don't attempt to buy it. Don't attempt to sneak any in. Don't accept any if it is offered to you (which is highly unlikely).
Be very, very, very careful about verifying the age of the women there. They are tiny people, and it can be very difficult to guess at age. Sex workers (which would include "talent") will often misrepresent their age, often under duress from their pimps/handlers.
