Counting dances - how do you do it?
steve229
The other night for our last series of dances I told my CF to stop after 5, so I wouldn't have to keep track. Great series of dances ensued with lots of mutual contact and some playful pillow talk. We finally got to the end of a song and she suddenly looked at me and said "how many was that?" I reminded her I wasn't counting. She laughed and said oh, right, then stood up to check the stage and see who was dancing. She said she thought we did 5, but she would do one more just to be sure. I wasn't complaining. Anyway, next time I'm thinking about just buying a block of time.
So how do you do it?

Realistically, with any dancer I have a history with its never really an issue. It usually goes pretty similar to your story, at one song change one of us asks how many it was and we both venture a guess. If there's a discrepancy we sort it out without much drama - sometimes we take my high count and she calls it a tip or she'll give me one more to be sure, if she's higher than me I might count it as my tip and she considers it not getting one. Sometimes we'll find other solutions, we'll take my low number & I buy the next round of drinks or vice versa, do a partial song, make it out outside, etc. Its never more than a one song discrepancy, 25 to isn't much to either of us in the grand scheme of things.
Also, at a lot of clubs, the bouncers count so they can charge the dancers, so we just ask them. For example, you can ask the eye in the sky at Scarlett's or check the sheet at Cheetah.
1 2 3 4 5...etc. And then I sing A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z... now I know my abc's...

If I want more I'll specify "no rush" and there is no song count for 30 minutes of whatever.
So please alutard stop sending sexual threats to my message box...not kool
As I’ve often posted; I like variety and getting many LDs from many different dancers in a club visit.
As some have noted; in clubs w/ a separate LD area; often times there is a LD counter; this is especially true in clubs where the dancers have to pay the club per dance (e.g. $5 out of a $25 LD) – so in these clubs; if you and/or the dancer is “confused†w.r.t. the # of dances; one can always clarify it with the LD counter (unless in the rare occasion the LD counter is a douche working w/ the dancer to ROB custies) – so in this setup where there is a LD counter; one has something to fall back on and the dancers are also less apt to try and over-count a PL.

Being in my early 40s; I am not too familiar w/ most hip-hop songs being played in clubs today. Often times it’s very hard to tell when one song ends and another one begins Some hip-hop songs have more than one rapper making it sound as if it was a new/different song; etc.
Being that I mostly go to black dives down here in Miami where dances are $5 and $10; many dancers try to over-count in order to try to make $$$. I don’t mind spending $$$ and tipping when dances are so cheap; but I hate someone trying to ROB me.
So what I often do; especially in the black dives; is I ask the dancer at the beginning to let me know whenever she is going to start a new song and that is pretty much the best way I can keep track of the songs.
Also, some clubs sometimes; or often times; cut songs – sometimes they may play a song for a minute and then cut to another one – this shit notoriously happens in many black clubs – so in essence; the dancer may not be over-counting but you are getting yipped via cut-songs.
I would much more prefer some type of timer system as some have described where a dance is based on a time limit (e.g. 3 or 4 minutes) and not dependent on the particular song. Or at least have some type of way/sytem where a custy can easily identify when a new song is starting.
In a black dive I visit from time to time; they recently instituted a system where the DJ would play a specific sound effect after each song - in this particular case; the sound effect was the sound of glass shattering.
And in some clubs; the DJ will always come on and make a comment after each song, i.e. either announcing the next dancer or w/e; and it can be a consistent way of identifying breaks b/w songs.
I use my fingers :)
Just one of the reasons she's my ATF.
