Looks like this club will be changing. I heard it from a couple dancers that work there that they have been busted for liquor license violation. I went by today to check it out and they were closed "for renovations". A lot of their girls are already showing up at Follies, which is right down the road. Just an FYI
I just passed by the place. No cars, but a sign on the door. I didn't stop to read it. I seem to recall Doraville wanting to change the liquor laws a few years ago. That stupid 3 foot nekid rule from an open container. Oasis was falling under the same rule and was trying to fight it.
I found that.
DeKalb County Superior Court Judge has dismissed a strip club’s lawsuit against Doraville that sought to allow it to continue to offer nude dancing and alcohol.
The Oasis club was annexed into Doraville in December 2012 but had previously operated as an adult entertainment venue under an agreement with DeKalb County. Doraville’s local laws do not allow nudity and alcohol in sexually-oriented businesses.
Owners of Oasis have said they will appeal their Constitutional challenge to the Doraville laws to the state Supreme Court.
You are so correct Shadowcat. What a fucked up map though. The more and more I see of these, it looks like they (Cities) try to cut out things that will cost them the most money, Such as low income apartments and commercial areas that don't seem to be doing well.
I still love that they had a "Special Meeting" on Dec 31 at 12:01 a.m. to hear complaints?
Can't win for shit in Doraville I suppose. I agree with Papi though. I believe that they saw this forthcoming and was probably the reason why they opened the second location in Midtown late last year. Mileage was hit or miss in that club but it did have the prettiest and nicest chocolate spinners in the city.
I suspect a lot of the girls will try to get jobs at Follies due to the close proximity. Things could get even more crowded at everyone's favorite club
I just got back from Follies. Nobody has any idea what the violations were but it appears that Follies won't be hiring a bunch of new girls from Shooters. They already have all they want(240). If they transfer to the new Shooters they will have to get a Fulton County license and that is apparently somewhere between $300-400.

And I wonder what kind of liquor violations – e.g. girls grinding on custies in an establishment that sells alcohol? Etc?

Yeah, like there is a DS for a guy that sees strippers on a low budget.
