No offense, but I can't be bothered to read the story in its entirety.
All I read is that you ended up talking to a drag queen... Maybe a very feminine looking man; but wasn't there any indication that it was a guy? Deep voice, Adam's apple, his hands? I understand that you were willing to try it a second time and may have gotten drugged (or just so obliterated that you forgot you had a job.)
Now you want our opinion on places to go? I'm almost insulted; but I feel bad enough to offer a little bit of advice from here. Whether you listen to it (or not) is none of my business now.
1. The way you hit on the girls in your cab was creepy as all hell. "Oh hey, ladies. If you two make out you get a free ride!" That doesn't SCREAM creepy cab driver, in any language, at all. Plus you lost out on your pay too. Instead of going with a straight forward approach, on girls who may not be tanked yet, have you considered small talk? I'd say you should ask them questions like "have you been to this bar (use bar name) before? It's a great place to check out if your not enjoying (destination) too much tonight." Have a place that you can offer actual insight about. Luckily, after your gay bar incident, you have a story to tell. Women love a good story.
I've been a sales person for the vast majority of my 20's, actually... All of my 20's. I've talked to so many different people that it's ridiculous and some of the things I've sold and lines I've used, have gotten me the most unexpected responses from customers (ever)! It does happen sometimes. You can pull customers and numbers on a regular; sometimes even getting straight forward but not as often, and not so blunt either.
Here's two of my examples:
One product I was selling was a multi vitamin energy drink. Naturally people are turned off on it because of the sweeteners that may be used. Luckily, what we used, was completely safe for the teeth and even a dentist recommended it. I was going on that line for a while and one lady passed by, greatest smile I've ever seen (in that particular store) and I had to drop this line... Just had to. I caught her attention and she opened me up by asking about the sweetener. I explained what it was and move on to "so it'll keep your smile looking just as pretty as it does now" - and her lack of [real] interest in the product prompted her to reply with "so does cum!" I was shocked. I even stalled for a few seconds with laughter and go "well unfortunately I got turned down for sampling that in the store, so I'm still high in stock." In the end she offered me her phone number and we met up a time or two. She was right; her smile never got any worse after a long night.
and now a less direct way that I succeeded in my industry:
While selling this same product, doing set ups in local convenient stores and sampling, there's other vendors all around you. All of which have the same hatred for (pretty much) the same customers. You get your rude ones and the freeloaders, so you can spot them on your way to lunch or the bathroom, and you can just tell how things are going for them. It allowed me to spark up multiple conversations with all of the vendors. Eventually I was able to pull several numbers from co-workers that way and it was all on a friendly approach.
Neither of my two approaches were "creepy" enough to have a woman run and tell my boss I was harassing her. Maybe you should think about story 1 next time you try that move, slick.

2. If you really are too afraid of using your cab driving as a way to pick up these women (real women,) then your next best bet is to do some day gaming. Your money is most lucrative on the weekends and you don't want to give that up. However, one night wouldn't hurt if you can get ahead beforehand. Then you can go to bars that have less men dressed up like women and girls who won't mind being hit on. Even have a few drinks to loosen up a bit. Let's go for your day gaming.
I watched a couple of in-field videos at a book store. Granted, the guy making these videos, had looks to fall back on - but I feel like what he did was show that success could come in many different ways. So long as you're willing to be spontaneous about it and sincere. Here's two of my favorite approaches that he did in a book store (any of you YouTubers out there may have seen this guy.)
A: He approached a beautiful woman, I'm talking around a HB8 or 9 even. Walks up to her waiting for her eye contact and as soon as she does he goes "How are you?" You can see how awkward this is for her (day game, being awkward, you hear all about it.) He proceeds with "I know this is really random but I thought you were cute and I wanted to come say hi to you" she proceeds with "aw that was pretty sweet" and he gets (slightly) cocky in his reply with "yea, I am pretty sweet" then asks for her name. They shake hands and he asks her to do him a favor and smile and compliments it. At this point she starts asking him questions and it's game on from there. After some slight small talk he's bold enough to go "tell you what, follow me. We're going to go sit down" and she does. Proceeding through conversation (which he makes it appear as if he's really nervous) he ends with getting her phone number to take her out later on. When he took her to go sit down he even grabbed her hand.
I don't consider this guy a "guru" by any means. He's not "Mystery" or any of these top notch guys that are well into the game - but for some reason I like what he did. Check out the video here:

Then this one - again in a store and very random. He has a 10 minute talk about his video before showing the footage so skip ahead to 10:40 unless you give a shit about his explanation. He's basically trying what he calls a "nervous approach" where he tells the girl he's nervous.
Approach: "Hey, how are you?" (reply) "I know it's a little random, I'm actually kind of nervous because I don't really do this a lot but could I give you a call sometime?"
Within a minute he has the name, the number, and her questioning whether or not he will actually call her SOON. Check that video out here:

Again - neither one of these are approaches I would have thought about doing on my own. I like that he has a shirt camera and filmed it this way, even if the second one appears to possibly be set up(?) but I'm going to try these in my own day game as well. Just because I like switching my style up a bit so that it's never a routine.
Hope this helped.
Stay away from men in red dresses, and good luck!
