Price war?
bumrubber
Are you noticing a SC price war? There's a lot of buzz about a few clubs in southern CA that could be considered "value" players, and I just noticed another one basically matching prices with two others.
I'll let y'all name names if you want to -- my point was the overall price war. Have you noticed it? How about in other parts of the country?

maybe there should be though, all of northern ohio has been hit pretty hard by the recession.
There are some dives in town with $20 lap dance prices, like Private Dancer, but the reviews for these places suck and I have been to several myself and agree with the negative reviews.
Back in the mid 90's, when St. James had trailers in back for extras, I was going for the food, when I found out that there was more on the menu than steak and chicken. I didn't partake and stopped going because a family friend advised me that a vice operation was ongoing. The trailers were eventually moved, just months before the place was burned to the ground. My fire department responded in mutual aid and I worked the fire for six hours (St. James was rebuilt).
Cheeks and Living Room are now both open until 4AM on Friday and Saturdays. No Columbus club stays open this late unless it is a BYOB club.
Also I wanted to agree with prim0 that the competition in Columbus has sucked. For example, Kahoots started to comp the first round of drinks for free in their $200/30 min VIP. Then a couple months later they increase the price to $250/30 min to justify this. $50 for 2 free drinks? I don't think so.... The new club that came to town (Whispers) tried to compete with prices (2 for $20) but the mileage and privacy sucked so much I would not pay even $1 for those stupid dances. Needless to say the club is now out of business.
I gotta say, that if it weren't for the 2fer1's, I probably would have stopped going there. $41 for a nightshift topless dance ($51 for nude) is WAY too rich for my blood. The 2fer1's make it alot more palatable.
I wonder when "Dayton" changed? Last I recall (about 2000), closing time was always 2AM. There used to be a place (not a SC) out on 48 somewhere around Kettering called "The Underground". At 2AM the placed closed to the public, but employees from other clubs in the area came by to party. I was known as "Miami" there, even though not a local, and got to stay for that. ALWAYS a good time! This was back about 35 years ago, however.
I made a mistake in my posting though, it is only Cheeks that stays open until 4am on friday/saturday, NOT living room. Maybe Cheeks can get away with it because they are not in the city of Dayton, they are in the suburb West Carrolton.
However, what is unique about The Living Room is a place that serves alcohol and offers both topless ($20) and nude ($40) dance options. I have always thought it was illegal to serve alcohol and be full nude in Ohio. They advertise as having "all bottled beers", not sure if this is how they get around the rule or not...
I thought that Cheeks was in Miamisburg.
Not that it matters, but looking at the maps, it looks like a "finger" of Dayton actually extends down between West Carrolton and Miamisburg where Cheeks is located. What matters, is, that is one of the best clubs in the area, or at least it was.
Sometimes it's more like $10-15/LD in Canada.

LOL...
i would most likely try to hit it in the late afternoon or early evening if i decide to go.
Not to mention this club was outside of columbus so I did not have to put up with the pasties. That alone made it worth the $5/song for me lol.
