Those dancers must really be HOT!
Living in the north country, I've occassionally wondered what dancers would do if the place was going up in flames in the wintertime? Do you exit in just you bikini or less or risk making a dash to the changing room for some extra layers of warmth?

Dart behind the bar and grab a bottle to keep you warm.

I've never been to this club, but from the reports of the taken in this club, they have plenty of fur to keep them war. Woof!
"of the taken"
Damn autocorrect. Should be "talent"
Motorhead my friend, sometimes the typos/autocorrects are pretty damn funny. "Of the taken" could be the next Liam Neeson action film. "I have a very specific set of talents..."
And of course, it would end with "...and those talents involve bringing a bucket of the Colonel's XXXtra KRIS-pay to da club...who wants a drumstick up their pooper?"
I wonder what song was playing when the fire started?
Burning Down The House? Fire? We didn't start the fire?
Honest, sir! It was kind of chilly in her and it was just a little bonfire!
We didn't know that the bourbon that we used as a fire started would burn so hot, or that the wood floor would burn!
The Roof, The Roof, The Roof Is On Fire! We Don't Need No Water Let The Muthafucka Burn! Burn, Muthafucka, Burn! Burn, Muthafucka, Burn!
Since the club was failing, I suspect arson.
I had the same thought as Otto, arson ---- or maybe a religious fanatic who was trying to burn the sinners in hell. In reality, probably faulty wiring.
