  Spinners are small thin dancers, basically petite dancers and they're kinda crassly called "spinners" b/c "they're small enough to spin on your dick"

  Atlanta is pretty conservative when it comes to strip clubs and in most clubs there is no contact b/w custies and dancers, basically air-dances. Atlanta is also made up of many small cities with each one having different ordinances w.r.t. strip clubs and many cities these days see strip clubs as undesirable eyesores, e.g. Doraville, GA the city Oasis is in.

  There's a Glossary link in the TUSCL homepage that defines some acronyms - you can also look in [view link]

  Elaborating on Papi's explanation, the City of Doraville annexed the land which included Oasis Goodtime Emporium several years ago (the club had operated for decades on unicorporated Dekalb County land). The City, in its infinite wisdom, then passed a ban on alcohol and nude dancing in the same establishment, which was functionally intended to shut the club down - in the Atlanta market, with exception of one "bikini" club catering to urban clientele, all the clubs have full nudity and full alcohol service. Economically offering no booze or less than full nudity wouldn't be viable for long against local competition. The nude dancing/alcohol ban has since been the subject of a series of court battles (most of which have not favored the club to date) but while the litigation continues OGE has made some adjustments to its operations to bolster the argument that rather than a strip club, it is actually a "nude cabaret." Associated changes include: - While dancing on stage or giving a table dance, each dancer has to keep a prop (boa, fan, etc.) in her hand at all times (in-house they refer to this as "flair") - At least a couple of times every night shift, the main stages are shut down and a side stage is used for an elaborate, theatrical striptease performance by a featured entertainer (earlier in the history of this battle the club had aerialists perform a routine suspended from the ceiling above the main stage, but rumor has it those acts didn't make enough in tips to keep it up) - Not directly related to the legal situation per se, dances on the floor can no longer be considered true "lap dances" - now they are generally table dances only, and mostly air; the VIP booths have also had "vision panels" added so a bouncer could stand and look in on the booth without pulling open the curtain

  Nobody can confirm it but it seems likely that the new rules by Doraville is the reason that Shooter Alley shut down and reopened within the City Of Atlanta.

  "... At nicer clubs, how many girls know real pole tricks ..." IME pole tricks are not too-common in most clubs - it's mostly about the one-on-one interaction off-stage and off-stage is where the $$$ is made in most-clubs - most SCers wanna either watch for free or spend their $$$ on dances vs just tipping on-stage.

  For the moment, the city of doraville does not require dancers to get a permit, so it is pretty easy for dancers to start at Oasis. Most other clubs require a permit that is either 300 or 350 per year. So, Oasis tends to be a good starting place. There seems to be an influx of black dancers, since there's a black club closed for remodeling. Usually not many black dancers there. Because expectations are low, girls that just want to dance can work there and then just have to figure out best way to make their money. Girls that are willing to do more than just dance manage to find ways to make money too. The one change that I really hate is that the dancers are not allowed to sit on a guy's lap.
