Making it rain

I typically bring anywhere from $500 to $1000 in ones to the strip club. I have some drinks, and if I like a girl on stage I'll make it rain on her anywhere from $100 to $400 depending on how much I like the girl. I can't explain it, but making it rain gives me a adrenaline rush, plus it's cool to see the stage covered in ones lol. Typically after the stageset the girl will come immediately to where I'm sitting and sit and drink and talk with me for a long time. Whereas I observe dancers going from customer to customer and maybe sitting with them for a few minutes before moving on if the customer doesn't want to do a dance.
A couple buddies that go with me to the strip club say I'm wasting my money. I explain to them I don't make it rain on everyone, just the girls I really like. Most of the time I have good conversation with the girl, at the end of the night I get her number more often than not, and I haven't even done dances with her.
I'm just wondering, do you guys think I'm wasting my money?
Are you more of a dance guy or stageshow guy?
Thanks for the insight

For spending that kind of money most of us would get a couple of hours of intense sexual contact with dancers. Sex can also be had for far less money. But you get almost none of that for your money. Sounds like waisting money to me.
I assume you get some kind of thrill for being the man throwing the big bucks on stage. I don't understand that, and most guys here won't understand that. But it's your money so if you are genuinely happy with that thrill being all you get, then go for it. My guess, however, is that you do this out of inexperience because it's easier to just sit there throwing money on stage than it is to navigate the dance/extras circuit. Or maybe you just don't understand how much fun that kind of money can buy.
I tend to tip $5 on slow nights and $20 on busy nights. Then when she's at my table, I offer her a drink and slowly and discreetly slip her $5s (or whatever) throughout the night to stay at my table. How much you need and how often depends on the club, the girl, and her expectations. I've never had to spend more than 100-120/hr, and often you can spend far less. It just depends on the club and the dancer's expectations.
Plus this practice does impact the other customers (ie us). If customers are going to be throwing hundreds on stage for nothing, it becomes harder for the rest of us to get value. Even I've got problems competing with a guy who tips a dancer he doesn't even know $200 on stage. And he's doing that with no expectation of getting any of the things that keep a man alive. Why would dancers mess with the rest of us when customers are willing to so freely waste money like this?
I know most of you think this is stupid even though for some reason I seem to be the only one so far who is willing to point out the obvious absurdity of this type of spending. Did I miss the memo saying this was be nice to newbies week?
Quit pussy footing around the newbie and talk sense for a change.
BTW, where do you club? ;-D

I'm sorry, but I just don't understand why someone would do this unless they are just trying to impress the guys in the club. This is why I had a hard time believing your first post was authentic.
You could be getting more bang for your buck, but it sounds like you like the public attention.
Don't do it if you are just frustrated because the girl is ignoring you. Rain won't likely improve the situation. You'll just end up more frustrated.
Once at Sunnyvale Brass Rail a Filipino super bombshell was for some reason unknown to me showering me with attention and ignoring everyone else. So a frustrated guy did make it rain, about $20 worth. She collected up the money at the end, but she rarely broke eye contact with me in the process.
Women do what they want, for their own reasons. Money does not always influence them.
On the other hand I saw a guy who was going out with a girl let about 20x $1 bills drop down on to his girl and she really loved it.
You have to know what you are trying to do and sense the vibe.

Another point in my opinion is that you're making yourself a target. After while some regulars are going to get the impression you have alot of money so they may be scheming a way to get yours. Its cool you go with your buddies, but you never know how many or what kind of buddies they have.
Disregarding the above, really if that's your thing by all means do it.
Two points:
1) a lot of newbies don’t know what one can get in many clubs – i.e. sex in the club (ITC) or outside the club (OTC) – so many spend $$$ getting the bare minimum and they don’t know more can be had
2) rain-making seems to be a young-guy phenomenon – it seems to have been made popular by the hip-hop scene so many young guys see it as what one does in SCs and what’s cool to-do – but in reality from what many strippers say many of these rappers that are shown making it rain thousands in their videos often don’t spend shit when they actually do visit a strip-club – so it seems like it’s suckers watching the videos that wanna imitate what rappers do in videos and often don’t do in real-life
@regcustomer- I just moved to LA. I've been to a few of the LA clubs, (4 Play, Dames and Games, Sam's Hofbrau).
@Papi_Chulo- yeah seeing the rappers do it influenced me a little bit. I'm a big hip hop fan.
@shadowcat- good link, pretty insightful. I'm half black and half white, so do I fall in the category of making it rain a black thing lol.
The few times I got lap dances it was way too much of a tease. Perhaps I haven't visited the clubs where you can get extra attention in the lapdances. I'm not sure I'll visit, I would to keep in my head that are strippers are innocent good girls simply stripping to pay for college :)
I'll definitely adjust my making it rain, I've been spoiling these girls. I'll keep it around $50.
No thanks. I'd rather do it manually and in moderation.

I'm not sure what the intent of tipping so much is. If it's to get her attention to come visit you, that you can often do just looking at some dancers. Dancers do appreciate tips and a tip that large identifies you as super rich or a high roller. You might make some dancers jealous as well if they got left out.
In my opinion that could create some bad feelings among all the dancers you didn't tip. If you're tipping all the dancers, that could make them all happy but if you ever lose your job or fall on hard times, never expect to get a dime back. In my opinion you should already be a millionaire before you can afford to toss away hundreds at a time with virtually nothing in return. I'm middle class and have to work for my money so I want something in exchange for it. If you're rich, you are likely used to wasting money. Some poor people do the same and they stay poor because of it.
Otherwise it is a waste.

You can get good lap dances even at a low mileage place like 4 Play. The key is to negotiate what the dance will involve before you go back with the dancer. For example, at 4 Play, I'd offer to do the 3 song set which I think is $90 but I'd make it clear to the dancer that I expect a close contact dance in which she grinds on me and lets me play with her ass and boobs. Don't be shy, ask and negotiate, its your money and you have a right to make sure you are getting value for that money. She will not be offended in any way even if she claims otherwise. If she says no or hesitates, or says anything other than an unequivocal yes, then I say goodbye. Bare Elegance in Hawthorne is another place in LA where you can get good lap dances with hot dancers if you negotiate effectively beforehand. Or you could head out to COI where its probably not even necessary to negotiate mileage beforehand. My point is that you need to learn how to get good lap dances. Once you learn that, you can have far more fun for your money. And $50 is still a pretty insane stage tip for anyone except a favorite but at least you're moving in the right direction.

I don't get out, but am I wrong?

My comment was aimed to JS69
with the anticipation of some type of sex act as a nice ending for a real lovely evening.
note and always remember this: it's ok to respect women, whether a sex worker or a civvie. however, NEVER EVER show too much respect - even if she's hte hottest thing you've ever seen.
Recap:
•I think lapdances are a waste of money
•I go to the strip club to drink and to talk to beautiful naked women
•I'm not interested in fucking in the club
•I like making it rain, it gives me an adrenaline rush
As another example of what a great lap dance is, read my article on my best lap dance I've ever had.
getting a great lap dance depends upon three things.
First you need to be a respectful, non-creepy, generous guy that the dancer feels no dislike towards. This is not mandatory but it can help a lot.
Second, some clubs allow better lap dances than others. Places like Atlanta, Detroit, and Miami have the very best. But LA can be good if you follow my third point. Also COI clubs are high contact near LA.
Third, unless you know the dancer or its an ultra high mileage club like follies, you must negotiate lap dance mileage beforehand. You have all of the leverage before the dance begins. She has all the leverage once you say yes to a dance. If you don't discuss lap dance mileage beforehand, then the odds are very good that you will get a weak air dance. She doesn't want to work any harder than she has to in order to get your money.
So when she asks for a dance, tell her nicely that she's beautiful and you'd love a dance with her but you'd just like to ask her a few questions first. Then ask for what you want. For example I want to suck her tits. Maybe kiss her neck. Definitely consume her tits with my hands and mouth. Some guys want to slap her ass. At some clubs you could ask her to suck your dick through your pants. I would always insist that she grinds me at least with her legs if not also her breasts cause I want my dick rubbed. This takes patience and practice but you'll get good at it with time. If she won't agree to something important to you, then politely say no thanks. Note however that many dancers will loosen their rules if you agree to buy more than one dance.
My guess is that if and when you get good at securing great lap dances, you will change your mind about not wanting sex with the dancers. I certainly did.
Good luck. Glad to have you in the discussions.
Yes, it just has to be for fun, not like you really expect to get something. You have to use judgement as to when the girl really wants that.
Throwing the money I kind of see as bad. I've seen a guy standing over the girl at the corner of the stage, and letting it dribble down onto her. She liked that. But they were going out together already.
I think that could work. Your mostly just becoming part of the show, instead of just handing her $20.

Falling on my head like a memory
Falling on my head like a new emotion
I want to walk in the open wind
I want to talk like lovers do
I want to dive into your ocean
Is it raining with you?”
Which rainmaking technique do you use? The "waterfall" or the "downpour?" Or is it situational?
