Center of attention vs. low profile?

I go with the flow.

If I can hang back and get lost in the crowd, great. If it's a slow day and I have a target on my lap, that's ok, too. Once I tip my hand that I'm spending, there's no peace anyway until I hit the next club.

As with Mr. Zissou and wallanon, I prefer to be under-the-radar (and under a lovely dancer, one-on-one).

I prefer to maintain a low profile and enjoy the dancers of choice for the day.

I prefer to find a strategic quiet seat away from the stage. That way I get a clear view of the club, can see the stage and check out the dancers, see who is coming into the club and leaving, and see which dancers are working the floor and how often they take a customer to the VIP area. The provides a good setting to "shop" for the dancer I want to spend some time with.

I've had it both ways. some nights i can disapear to the back of the club and be happy with an ale and a lot of eye candy. other times, my lap is a very popular place and i end up with a lot of really good ideas from my favs. it's all good at the club.

like drippy, prefer to get a seat with a view of the room away from center stage. Allows me to pick out who I'm interested in as well as see how often certain girls go to VIP (and if customers only get one dance or so, it's probably not the best of dancers). I also like the satisfaction at seeing the various dancers that just walk by without saying much to me only to find out later that I ended up spending more money than most of the customers with the trips to the back with girls that did stop by.

At my favorite club, I am too well known to be anything but the center of attention. But when I venture to another club I prefer to be low profile. I like to just sit quietly and observe the action. If I see something that I like, I wait for her to come to me. If I am patient enough, it usually happens but does not mean that I am always happy with the results.I do some stage tipping to the ones that interest me.

I'm definitely a low profile guy. However, at my current favorite club the women I see regularly know me well enough and who I see so that they spread the word when I'm there. At least one waitress knows what I drink without asking.

Even though it's a little more high profile than I'd like, I'm definitely NOT the center of attention, which is a good thing.

Low profile, however, at the club I most often visit, I know the bartender well. She does a good job of "scouting" dancers for me, as well as keeping those I wouldn't like away. So THAT interaction is good.

I like to get a lot of attention from the strippers. I like as little attention as possible from the staff, except when I'm trying to order a drink. But who are we kidding? No customer is quite the center of attention he may think he is. Compared to the strippers, we all might as well be invisible.

I may not want a whole lot of attention at times but dancers who know me see me and come talk to me no matter where I sit at. I noticed if I try to not get much attention but then decide to tip a familar dancer at the center stage and she puts on a show to try to get more tips from others, I'm suddenly at the center of attention. It only lasts for a few seconds at a time but I do have fun. I'm focusing on the dancer instead of everyone watching. I figure most people are watching the dancer and not me anyway. Sometimes to have fun, you have to just forget about all the other people in the club.

casualguy noted, "Sometimes to have fun, you have to just forget about all the other people in the club." This is so true, and a great, simple way to express a relevant fact about maximizing SC enjoyment. I do try to convince myself it is just me and her...

I prefer to keep a low profile, but for me it's virtually impossible to do so. I don't mind attention from the dancers or staff, but unwanted attention from fellow customers can get to be too much at times.

It all depends on my mood... Some nights I just want to sit back and watch while being ignored by everyone until I find the ONE dancer.

Others I want to have a stream going by, not to mention quality drink service.

Center of attention visibility leads to dancers hitting on you as soon as you come in the door. I find that when I am known, dancers, pretending to be happy to see me, because they think I'm good for an easy $100.00. Well, I used to be. Now, I want the low profile so I can check out what I want instead of being a target.

I would prefer to keep a low profile, but at my favorite club, if I'm there, it's nearly impossible to keep a low profile because some favorite is always there. And once a girl is with a guy there, other girls will soon hang out with that guy. At my number 2 place, I can generally keep the lower profile since they can get so crowded.

SuperDude,
You comment reminded me of the time a dancer greeted me with:
"I'm really glad to see you, I'm a little behind on my car payment this month."

I like a low profile so I can access the situation and zero in on my target.
