LD room vs VIP vs Champagne

Prompted by a recent discussion. What's your definition of the various areas for lapdances? Around Detroit I've seen the following:

Lapdance area: A place with several chairs or small sofas, not at all private. Could be anything from a bench along one wall to a separate room with some curtains for semi-privacy. Usually free to enter, or there might be a $10 charge that gets you in all night. You pay per dance, $20-30.

VIP room: A very small private room with a door or curtain that offers complete privacy. Usually has a per-entry or per-dance surcharge on top of the cost of the LD.

Champagne room: A fairly nice room with a big sofa, maybe a small table, TV, separate chair, or other amenities. You rent it by the hour rather than by the song. I don't use these often, prices I've seen are around $200 for a half hour including the dances.

There are also semi-private lap dance booths. A seat with a partition so you don't see what's going on next to you but no door or curtain. A big improvement over the "lap dance corral" you see at some places.

When I was frequenting Bogart's a lot in 2010, I enjoyed doing it in the open VIP. It was a wonderful way to scout out talent. Plus it was like being inside your own Porn movie seeing the other guys fucking & getting sucked. LMFAO

It never bothered me to have the others watching me. It was kind of a turn on. LOL

Like Alucard, I am familiar with Bogarts as well as the two Henrys in Detroit and I am comfortable with the set-up. Lap dances or any extra a horndog could desire take place in those rooms. As with Arnie's in south Chicago. To call these rooms VIPs is a serious misnomer, even if there is a $10 or $20 fee to enter. My usual haunts in the Toronto suburbs have no VIP fees and the action is as public as the aforementioned Detroit clubs. Also like Alucard, I find the live porno very titillating and often very humourous.

One Toronto area club I frequent has a $20 fee to enter the VIP each time you go with a different girl. The facilities are comfortable and semi-private. One time only did I do the Champagne Room in a Toronto club. Fee was $300 + bottle (I stumped for the cheapest one available) + dancer's fees. That particular episode cost me close to $800 all-in as I remember. I didn't want the bottle and when I was finished I poured it down the toilet so that the wretched management could not re-sell the crap. The girl adamantly refused to do the deed outside of the CR and I was sort of curious about the CR experience anyway. No regrets about it but I will never do it again. When we were finished in the CR the dancer gave me her # and told me she would do OTC with me whenever I come to Toronto for $300! I am some dummy, huh?

Sometimes a trial run is needed Art.

I don't like defining things but if I must:

Lap Dance Room - place where I get my dick sucked
VIP Room - place where I get my dick sucked
Champagne Room - place where my wallet gets fucked

Lol, good one Gatorfan. :)
I'd be much more willing to meet up outside the club rather than pay a fortune to the club in a champagne room. I don't have that kind of money to burn. Of course you can get an idea of how far the girl is willing to go during some lap dances.

Here's a guide to using lap dances to gauge how far she'll go, depends on club management too.

1. Hands off, nothing but air, not a chance.
2. She puts your hands where most dancers don't, good chance.
3. She starts sucking away, well you don't even need to go outside unless you want more privacy.

I have seen different terms used in even the same city. However in general if a club has both 'lapdance' and 'VIP' rooms the latter are always the more expensive. And I have never seen 'Champagne Room' used in a nonalcoholic club for obvious reasons.

I pretty much agree w/ Ermita_Nights breakdown. The only difference in my area is that there are typically no surcharges for VIP rooms - just the cost of the LD's.

In the Chicago area there are no "entry" fees for any of the dance areas. The cost quoted includes the cost of using the room and the dancer's fee. Any tipping is on top of that. Some dancers will tell you that you also have to tip the bouncers at some clubs (which usually pisses them off because it means the dancer usually gets less).

"VIP room: A very small private room with a door or curtain that offers complete privacy. Usually has a per-entry or per-dance surcharge on top of the cost of the LD."

Although a Champagne Room is nice in terms of increased time available with your chosen Dancer, the cost + the $$$ to the Dancer would severely limit my money spending on my ATF & my ability to have multiple cums with her. At my "advanced" age I need recovery time for multiplicity with my ATF!

Except for paying $20 per trip to the VIP at BT's, their VIP setup seems to work for me for multiplicity.

I wish BT's had a one-time VIP fee, like Henry VIII. That is my only complaint about the place.

Likewise!

I'm not sure I understand the rationale for the Fee other than pure greed. Considering the slower business that is occurring there, one would think that changing the fee or eliminating it would encourage MORE trips to the VIP there. Trying to wring out every last dollar from customers is not best business practice.

I guess I think of VIP as being a private space, even if it just has a curtain. But the term gets used on tuscl a lot to mean the area where you go for lapdances, even if it's just a big room with a bench and no privacy.
