Strip Club Sojourn

[UnrepentantSinner]

Which should the skepdudes meet at someplace upscale like Club Paradise or some place divey?

[UnrepentantSinner]

O.k. now... I 've got 20+ views and 2 votes other than my own. Come on guys, don't worry about your wifes/s.o.s reading your explanation of your choice.

Brown... I'm looking at you.

[geni]

Who voted for $7.50 drinks? Thats about £5 what are you teatotelers? Can the girls realy be that good?

[Marc]

Don't care for dives, and don't care for drinks that I have to go to the ATM for. Then again I might not drink so that might not matter.

The thing is I can go to a strip joint around here any time. I'd rather hang out with the skepchicks while there. Now if there are some that enjoy going to the strip joints then I'm there! :D

[LuxFerum]

MoeFaux knows all the good places, ask her.

[tamiO]

I voted for the high class place. Since I don't drink more than one drink when I DO drink, it wouldn't be too expensive.

I still doubt that we can afford to go to TAMll, but I always keep some hope on the shelf. :)

I have this fantasy of getting married by an Elvis Impersonator in Vegas.

[SkepticScott]

Brown, Marc, you've stolen my idea. We'll stay at the hotel with all the skepchicks. Where's the "Skip the club; I'm hanging with the skepchicks" item in the poll???

You mean that hanging out in my room isn't enough? :eek:

Yes, G6, I think I do, and I gave you a setup line that you could run with. I did notice that no one ever answered my intentionally ambiguous question about the pa[nr]ties though ... . I think I'll settle for some ambiguous "roll" as an answer.:cool:

I pointed you out in jest (just in case that wasn't clear).

And on a side note...

I hadn't been to a strip club in two years when I went to one this August. I must say, that fragrant melange of perfume, smoke and alcohol is one of the most strangly intoxicating bouquets that has ever graced my nostrils.

[Ladewig]

Drinkers can always order bottled beer in a dive. Non-drinkers have to order drinks served in glasses. Do we really want to go into detail about how glasses are "washed" in a dive?

[AtheistArchon]

- I wouldn't mind seeing a Vegas strip show, Vegas being what it is and all. I have the feeling I'm probably going to be dissapointed, but still. As long as nobody expects me to drop major bucks there (as strip clubs invariably prod people to do) I'm game for a high-class place... I can drink a couple of beers and then cokes.

- I have to save the $10's for Girl 6, after all.

[UnrepentantSinner]

A nude review sounds interesting, but I'm talking lap dances here.

And don't wear jeans, you'll thank me for this advice later.

[MoeFaux]

There's several mega-clubs here. Jaguars was the biggest strip club in the world for about a week until Saphire opened, and I don't know it it still holds that title.
I visited Saphire with a friend this summer, and I didn't care for it much. It was a great place, don't get me wrong, with skyboxes and an ajacent steak house, but, I just don't like the big clubs. THey're too, generic to be any real fun for me.
There's several all nude clubs in town. The rule in Vegas is, if it's nude, they don't serve alchohol. Only one club doesn't abide by that rule, and that's the Palamino, which was grandfathered in. So, nude clubs are juice bars.
I've spent a lot of time in Little Darlings, which is a nice, midsize club and part of the DejaVu branch. LD and DejaVu are in my opinion, the nicest nude clubs.
My favourite club was called "Rick's Tally-Ho", but I guess it just changed ownership and is now renamed Sherri's cabaret. It's a VERY small club, which makes it really intamate and I find that more fun. You get a better dance because it's not just a room full of tables and chairs out on the floor. I haven't been since it changed hands, but I think it's still nude.
Club Paradise is pretty nice - it's the classiest club here. Second to that, from word of mouth info, is the Spearamint Rhino.
CP girls wear gowns and are all required to be very pretty and ladylike. The stage doesn't have a pole, which is interstesting because it means there's a lot more work going on in the stage dancing - while I love pole dancing, there's a lot of girls who either hide behind it or make it into some kind of athletic thing.
The name of the club that's next to the Tuscany is Club Platinum. It's very small and I think it's nude. If you all want to go, I've never been in there and would like to see it.
The clubs here really depend on what you like. There's some that are just like sports bars, and then there's some that are just all about going in and getting a dance.
Tell me what you're interested in and I'll try and tell you where to go.

Most important advice - if you want a good dance, wear microfiber pants. Ladies get "denim burn" from all the men that come in wearing jeans. So if you want a girl to like you, wear soft pants. AND TIP!

I think that may be the rule everywhere. Up here in Minneapolis, it's the same thing. However, if they want to serve alchohol, it has to be topless. No nudity below the waist.

Not so, sir. In Oregon, they serve alcohol at full-nudity establishments. So put Portland on your "cities to visit" list.

I probably will not partake in strip-club debauchery. Perhaps it's due to my young age (23), but when I see a good looking, young woman naked, I don't want to sit still like a gentleman and hand her my hard earned cash. I want to fu..er, procreate. Getting teased and going home with nothing but an enlarged version of what I came in with is not my idea of a good time.

[Marc]

Hmm... that Club Platinum sounds nice, might check it out one of the days before TAM starts.

I've always prefered wearing thin, soft pants to clubs. That way you can feel everything through them.

[Doubt]

I would offer a response, but I still don’t know if I am even going yet. My company just went into bankruptcy, but things are looking better.

Personally, I don’t like dives. To many memories of what is found just outside of Ft. Benning. Victory Drive in Columbus GA is often referred to as VD drive. :eek:

I don’t find strip joints nearly as much fun as I used to. Could be I am getting old, or maybe it is because I don’t have an expense account anymore. (That was my last job, not my current one.)

Yeah, it's important to know. I try and tell all my guy friends to say no to denim when they go to clubs.
Denim burn sucks. Leather is cool, and kahki's, but, I think microfiber is the best. It's so, so soft. The girls will love you. And, as was pointed out earlier, denim is thick, and some patrons don't like that.
Are you going to wear microfiber pants when you go out, G6? :D

That post was work? Two words - Mavis Bacon.

The information you provided was interesting. I don't plan on enjoying the entire "Vegas Experience" (for example, I won't be playing any table games) but it's good to have as much information possible - especially from a resident. Thank you for the guide. :)

[AtheistArchon]

There's several all nude clubs in town. The rule in Vegas is, if it's nude, they don't serve alchohol. Only one club doesn't abide by that rule, and that's the Palamino, which was grandfathered in. So, nude clubs are juice bars.

- Say not so! I wonder how that happened...? Of all the places in America that I thought I could get a beer in, it would have been a Vegas strip joint. Huh. Even Atlanta here has all nude + booze. In fact, the only club that isn't is BYOB (but they charge you extra...), allows 18 year olds, and has male AND female dancers.

- Ah well. Juice eh? That brings back memories from overseas. In Korea, the um, "hostesses" in the bars near Osan cozied up to the GI's asking for you to buy them a "drink", for like three bucks (which was a lot really over there). This drink turned out to be a 4-oz plastic bottle of juice... it was a money making scam of course. The girls got more friendly when you bought them juice, but nothing more than that. So bummer.

- These girls were less-than-affectionately termed "Juicy Girls".

Well, in clubs here, girls make money on the drinks men buy them. So they want you to be buying them drinks. A suggestion, though, if you ever find yourself on the other side of a patron/dancer situation - if you work at a juicebar, and your friend buys you 10 glasses of orange juice - don't drink them all. Just don't.
In clubs that serve alchohol, most girls have code for what they want. So when she tells the waitress what she wants, and says, "vodka tonic" she may really mean Sprite.
Little Darlings sold drinks for $10 each. The girls got to keep all of that money (of course later on they would tip the waitress out of it). The whole thing is to make money. Heck, that's what strip clubs are about.

You know Kittynh, there's a club here called "the Library". Any girl who works there can make their Mother proud.
"I work at the Library, Mom".
OF course this isn't your case, is it? Is it? :D

It's not fair that girls stripping in this province can get totally nude, touch themselves, etc. but guy strippers aren't allowed to be nude and can't touch themselves. It's a freakin idiotic double standard. Bachelorettes are a *$%*&#() bore around here. There's no market for c*cka doodle rings either.

Well.
Vegas has Chippendales at the Rio, and Thunder from Down Under (a poorly named show, I think) and I forget where that's at.
Olympic Garden, a strip club, has men some nights.

But, you'd have to put a gun to my head to get me to come along. I really don't like male strippers.

[kittynh]

OK we'll save a few bucks and get the skepdudes drunk in G6 room. Bet we could get them to give us a show...

I have to say that male strippers seem a bit oily on tv. And should my gaydar be going off?

No, your gaydar is working fine if it's not registering anything.
While plenty of gay men love strippers, male strippers themselves aren't always gay.
One of the girls I know is married to one of the Thunder From Down Under boys; there's no doubt he's straight.
And one of my good friends was a male stripper when he was going to college...you'll meet him at TAM2, if you're lucky, I'll tell you who he is [evil grin].
Yeah, Chippendales set the standard for oily chests. It's just so disgusting. I really get sick to my stomach thinking about them. I don't know exactly why. But, when I see their freaky stomachs, it always makes me think about lobster shells - you know, with the grossly enlarged sixpack, doesn't it look lobster-like? Is it just me?
Maybe I'm just a queer. I love female strippers. Hate the male ones. They're just never my type of guys. They just always look like I could crush them to bits.

Hey, US! Does your tummy look like a lobster tail ! Thanks Moe, what an image! and I love lobster! Lobster belly!!!! Yuck!

So US...time to pack a thong, but only if you have a real belly, and no oil either!

Girl strippers on tv are pretty cool. Very athletic it seems. I wonder if they teach classes in how to do that pole stuff? Well, not here in NH that's for sure!

Well, I heard that it is a workout to do pole dancing!

As I am already a dancer (hip-hop, salsa, etc...), I'm quite curious about that. Do you know anything about that?

If not, I see a potential for big money here! I say we get the skepchicks to do a pole dancing workout video! :D

They teach a few classes in Vegas, but I would recommend saving your money and just going straight to the club to learn. Because there you get paid for it.
It's hard work. And a lot of pole maneuvers require serious body strength. But it's fun.
I was at an event last week where they were promoting a removable pole that you could place anywhere. I'll try and find the website - it looked pretty resonable. I might get one. :D

[Glory]

MoeFaux,
I cocktailed at Little Darlings about 9 years ago when they first opened in Vegas. The dancers were not keeping the money from drinks, believe me, and they didn't tip the waitresses which is why I never helped them get patrons to buy them drinks. That would have endangered my tips. Each dancer started out the night owing the bar for five drinks. They had to pay for those drinks at the end of the night if they had not gotten patrons to buy them that many drinks. Things may have changed. The cost of the drinks has. That was not a fun place to work. I still love seeing strippers though. I prefer clubs in Vegas because I understand the rules. Everything is different in California particularly since the LA city council outlawed any version of lap dancing.

I really want to go with you all. Anyone know a baby sitter who is free that week?

Glory

[MoeFaux]

Oh my gosh! I worked at Little D's!
The drink situation was that a guy could buy the dancer a drink for $10. The waitress would then give the girl a poker chip and at the end of the night, the girl would cash them in with the waitress, and then of course tip her. LD's and Deja Vu (the sister club) are known in town for having cocktail waitresses that are constantly asking, "would you like to buy the lady a drink?", because the more they sold, the more tips they got (and the more money the dancers made, which was great since the house took SO much from the dances and house fees).
How cool is that, we've got a connection!

[Glory]

Very Cool! I was there when the main showroom was still under construction. We started out in a closet sized little place while they finished the big room. I am glad they changed the drink system although I still don't like that they keep pumping the patrons for more money.

I really hated the guys who ran that place when I was there. I actually had to threaten them with sexual harrassment charges. On my first night I found out that the temporary locker room was entered through the ladies bathroom. The one I had to use in front of all the dancers with no seperation whatso ever. I was almost okay until the manager kept sticking his head in there to yell things at the dancers. Twice he walked in while I was using the toilet. The second time I told him I would sue him for harrassment if he did it again. He blew me off and I went over his head. I used the men's room after that. It had a lock.

I was always happiest at Olympic Gardens. I never worked there but my husband and I would go there alot. We just fit there, you know?

I have to meet you when I can finally drag myself to Vegas. I want to hang out with you.

Glory

[MoeFaux]

Well, managers were always running around the back when I worked there, but no one minded. We even had a house DAD instead of the traditional house mom. He was great. There was a camera, too, and a monitor for it in the DJ booth so that the DJ could know where the girls were,
That's the difference between cockatil waitresses and strippers, though, you weren't paid to take your clothes off so you actually minded when someone saw you indecent. For everyone else, it's their job. I don't blame you.
The managers that are there now are one of the reasons I won't go back. I really loved that club, but, the schedule was a drag and the fees awful.
The main room was beautiful. It's such a nice club, I think. I miss it.
Right around the time I left, they changed the "format" to "hip it up" a lot. They now have theme nights "shot night" two-for one, vollyball day etc. It's too chaotic now. I have really good memories, though, of it being a nice club. Other places I've been to just weren't as nice, I thought.
I've actually never been all the way in the OG, just at the door. I know they get good business, though.
I think I mentioned earlier that I liked to visit as a patron Rick's Tally-Ho. The big super-clubs (you have to see them) don't appeal to me, but they are a sight to behold. I imagine they're really hard to work, too.
You're coming to TAM2, aren't you?

Well, managers were always running around the back when I worked there, but no one minded. We even had a house DAD instead of the traditional house mom. He was great. There was a camera, too, and a monitor for it in the DJ booth so that the DJ could know where the girls were,
That's the difference between cockatil waitresses and strippers, though, you weren't paid to take your clothes off so you actually minded when someone saw you indecent. For everyone else, it's their job. I don't blame you.

I wasn't upset about being seen with out my clothes as much as I was about having been using the toilet at the time. I could have handled simple nudity although I would definately have wanted a pay raise. I draw the line at peeing in front of any man. Not providing me with a lockable, private stall to pee in was not only illegal, it was beyond disrespectful. Plus, they didn;t warn me. You know the difference between waitresses and strippers. The patrons and dancers knew. The managers apparently didn't.

The managers that are there now are one of the reasons I won't go back. I really loved that club, but, the schedule was a drag and the fees awful.

It sucks when you are in a good comfortable gig and somebody makes a change.

I always hated the pushy, "party" attitude those places try to keep up. Its a strip club, not spring break. Well, to be fair I have never liked any of the events which attract camera men working for "Girls Gone Wild Ltd." Little darlings was a classy place for a while. Very upscale for nude club.

OG is nice. It's one of the older clubs, now. It is very low key in comparison to LD's or Club Paradise. It is a nice club with a relaxing atmosphere. The fee is high. I don't know what is now but a few years ago it was one of the highest in town. There is nothing special about how it looks ar anything. It's just nice. Like Club Paradise there are no poles which a lot of the girls hate. I also like that girls dance at your table rather than in some back corner. It is less, uh..., shameful. I like it better. They don't require three inch heels either. The only rquirement I know of are tails. You have to cover your tushy if you are not actually dancing.

You're coming to TAM2, aren't you?

I can't unless my husband has a great bonus this year. We just don't have the money for the trip. (sniffle, sniffle) I haven't completely given up on the idea but it doesn't look good.

I checked with the party guy in the family, and he said that he HATES the clubs that are over the top seeming to cater to the fraternity crowd. He wants a nice relaxing time when he goes out, plus, he usually has to go to work the next day, so he's not going to get totally wasted. He does tip very very well to "make up" for not buying too many drinks. (no, it's not pool Boy it's my cousin) He pointed out to me that he;s got way more money to spend than some guy in his 20's, and when I asked him about a volleyball night he said no way. Believe it or not, in London he said there is one "gentlemans club" he attends that has the girls reading classic pornographic literature (is there such a thing? Guess so...). He really likes the London clubs the best though. Any Vegas clubs that are for older gentlemen? He has to go there in December.

[Glory]

Ask him for the titles of some of that literature. The Marquis De Sade is the only example of such an author I can think of and sadism really isn't my thing.

I have never been to club that doesn't play loud rock music. Aside from that, I would reccomend Olympic Gardens on Las Vegas Blvd. for an older man. At least the way it was a few years ago. It may have changed. Cluib paradise is another good choice for a gentleman. The girls were less in your face and more coy when I was there. An older man who is well dressed will attract a lot of girls. They will smell money.

The OG is more of a party crowd now, from what I've hear, Glory.
Club Paradise is the classiest club in town, and that's what I would recommend. The women are all so lady-like (even when they're half naked). It's a nice place.

I know of one other author, a prostitute of De Sade's time that wrote a book. It used to be a banned book, too, and you can probably find it on the internet by doing a search for "banned books" and just searching through them.

In fact, they prefer some of the really old fellows, guys like George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Alexander Hamilton, Andrew Jackson, U.S. Grant and Benjamin Franklin.

How very astute.

But yup, you got it. This is a good time to point out -
When you go to a club LEAVE YOUR CREDIT CARDS AT HOME. Bring a set amount of money and then be done. I don't even want to think of all the hapless men I saw getting more money out of the ATM while "his girl" stood by snapping her chewing gum. You will adore her, you will be caught up with her, and she WILL get you to get "one more dance" by getting more money from the ATM. Don't do it!
The reason I stopped working at LD's was that the job was not that of a sexy stripper, but that of a used car salesman. It's just lying and upselling. As a customer, you've really got to watch yourself. As a dancer, you've got to sell, sell, sell, or else you can't pay your house fees.
It's tough.
So remember, cash only.

[Glory]

And that atm fee is upwards of Five dollars.

- At the Crazy Horse here in Atlanta, the fee a few years ago for the ATM was $7.50... the price of a really good mixed drink. And there was a line in front of that thing nightly. And yes, I've seen people blow their entire paycheck in a club in one night... truly sad. And they went home alone, naturally.

- I may not even carry my entire wallet with me if I go out, just my ID and some cash in my front pocket.

As a customer, you've really got to watch yourself. As a dancer, you've got to sell, sell, sell, or else you can't pay your house fees.

- True, true. I'm a tough customer tho. =)

- You know who really got taken for a ride back when I went regularly? The guys shooting pool. Not only did they pay for the pool on an hourly basis, but they paid for personal dances, tips for the waitresses, tips for the stage dancers, and finally they paid for the beers themselves. Don't even mention shooters! (Those girls always got lots of tips for the little "deep throat" they did on the shooter tubes.)

I had given up this idea as dead, but now that we're closer to TAM2 anyone up for it?

[AtheistArchon]

- I still am, just as long as I'm not required to pay like $20 at the door or something obscene like that.

[Dinonychus]

Given that the Skepchicks have something to do after the evening TAM sessions, we skep-dudes might as well have something to keep us from getting bored and into trouble.

In case you are wondering, yes, I'm up for this.

I've got an idea, why don't I just save you the time, the effort and you can just hand over your money to me? I will put it to good use, I promise. :p

Don't get that way. You'll head home with a fist full of $20s one way or another.

Nyar's on my sojurn recruitment list.. will this be a problem for you?

Monopoly money doesn't count. :p

No, not a problem at all. My only request is: Could you manage to keep the strippers from hurting him? The last time he went to a strip club, the stripper accidently slammed his head into a pole, and another time a stripper kicked him in the face by accident. I like my Nyarlathotep unbruised. :D

Chani! If he was handing out monopoly money...those "accidents" weren't....

You can try Pool boy but he is so cheap (or rather our children are so expensive) that unless strippers take rolled pennies, he's not going...

Well, see, I don't actually permit Nyarlathotep to have real money. He has to make do, you know. And as I have his credit card as well, he has nothing!!

Anyway, why pay for something he can get free, and get more satisfaction out of the experience? :D

Our children are quite expensive as well, but very worth it.

[UnrepentantSinner]

Harumph!

Apparently there was a strip club sojourn and I wasn't invited.

I wonder why... :mad:

[SkepticScott]

I missed it too! :-(

I missed it as well, but considering the closest strip club was right next door, I doubt we missed much. I'd rather see the shows at the various hotels in person than a strip club, especially in Las Vegas.

Why "increulously?" Sometimes a pole is just a pole.

[Brown]

For those of you who haven't been to Vegas in a while, you might find it interesting to walk the Strip on a Saturday night. You will find hundreds and hundreds of people all trying to shove flyers and cards into your hands. You will find these very same flyers and cards littering the streets to the point that it's hard to see the concrete, and you will find these flyers and cards stuck in nooks and crannies all around the Strip.

This material is, shall we say, all sexually oriented, and pushes various strip clubs, escort services and the like.

It is truly astonishing that there are so many people out there trying to compel you to take possession of this material. You can't swing a dead cat on the Strip without hitting four or five of these folks handing out this stuff. I was amazed at the manpower (and womanpower, as women were pushing the material as well) involved in these promotional efforts. Not to mention all the costs of paper and printing, most of which was wasted as these materials were discarded indiscriminately.

From this display, I concluded that there was probably more money in t*ts than I had previously suspected.
