Tipping Bouncers for VIP and Champagne Room Visits?
m00tpoint
My husband and I have recently broadened our SC horizons to begin including more the of the "premium" SC experiences. (VIP, champagne room, etc) It really pisses me off to pay $200-300 for a 30 min session in a champagne room, knowing that I will have to tip the dancer if it is a quality experience, and then find out I am also expected to tip the damn bouncer $50-100. The bouncer does NOTHING for me. Why should I have to tip him? Both of our favs tell us that the bouncers also collect from the entertainers at the end of the night apparently for "allowing them some leeway" so why does the customer have to tip too?
I am interested to know if this is pretty much standard to most clubs for VIP and Champagne Rooms of if this is just limited to this club. Do most of you have to tip bouncers for premium experiences and, if so, what is the standard for a 30 min Champagne Room session? Am hoping some dancers will respond also.
Thanks!

Back to that one club -- being in a generous mood, I tipped the bouncer pretty heavy when I paid him for the room. Ten minutes later, the idiot is sticking his head in saying "Easy with the hands, guys" -- when the most adventurous at the time was my left hand on the side of her right breast. That was my first (and last ever) VIP at that club.
Basically, I tip a waitress for whatever, because you tip waitresses. I tipped the bouncer to leave me the hell alone, and he didn't.
It was our first champagne room visit but all of the interruptions made it hard for me to relax. If it had not been for the interruptions it would have been great because we had a very willing high mileage entertainer with whom we were very comfortable because of previous interactions.
NO, you did the right thing. Until clubs understand that without customers, they have nothing but a club into which they can pour cash.
m00tpoint, what you describe above, however, is a shakedown, plain and simple. You were right to decline, and your husband was premature in caving in.
The first time I did VIP a few years ago, it did get me complete privacy. Unfortunately the rules are much stricter these days because of new legislation.
I'm totally with you on that, except I wouldn't say "I think". ;-) And I'd bet the farm that the dancer gets a cut of that extra money (or otherwise receives benefit from the bouncer).
OTOH, when the dancer refers to the bouncer as an "assfucker", probably not so much. ;-)
OTC with one of our favs is not an option as she commented once that she told the new girls the best way to get regulars who ask for you is to never do OTC. We weren't leaning toward OTC with her but that made very clear her thoughts on the matter.
I know, factually, that you are incorrect, so where is my farm? ")
And that very same reasoning is why, today, we have who we have as our President!
As a general matter, if one has dicey activities in mind then I believe that one should apply a little grease. Now in a "clean" place it won't usually help you, but in a place where things are more borderline - or even just striaght out nasty - a good tip can do all sorts of wonders. If I'm gonna' hand a girl $150-200 anyway, what the hell is another $20 to make sure that my ROI is as high as possible? Grease has worked well for me in a number of ways over the years, including ensuring privacy, being directed to the right "types" of girls, etc.
But I heard you tip cows!
i haven't been in that club for close to a year and i don't know if that guy still works there but he was always polite and respectful when i saw him there and if and when i go back i will tip the guy if he's still there.
