I’m not an extras or VIP/CR custy but I am a LD-getting machine LOL.
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.
