Headed out this Saturday afternoon, what is the prime real estate for getting dances? Planning on getting to club around 1pm.

Dude, they'll find you. I can't speak for Follies specifically, but they'll find you. No effort needed on your part.

Most people prefer the hightop tables against the side-walls

Follies' dances are floor-dances at one's seat vs a dedicated dance-area - thus the seating makes a difference w.r.t. the dances

Ok thanks papi. My bad.
I still think the dancers will always find you no matter the venue.

Oh the dancers will find you alright. The question is where do you want to get the dances. Most prefer the high tops but there are a lot of guys that prefer to get then in the back row of sofas facing the mirror.

Follies is a different animal.

For one it's packed day and night with PLs thus not hard to get passed up/by - also there are two large stages in the middle which kinda divide the club in two - the right side seems a bit bigger and also where the drug-dealers usually set up shop - if sitting on the left side not uncommon you can miss out on certain dancers that hang-out on the other side most of the time - and no you can't just get up and go find a girl and bring her to your table - by early-afternoon the hightops are all taken and if you get up to walk the floor kiss your table goodbye.

It's a different animal - you're not in Seattle anymore Dorothy.

I like the bar. BTW, I was there last Sat afternoon and every hightop and and several regular tables had reserved/VIP signs on them.

IME one can usually sit at a highrop with a VIP sign but you will be asked to move if someone buys a table - seems they put the VIP signs bc people understandably get pissed when they are told to give up a table

doctorevil I was there too sitting in my usual seat with a sign on the table. What it really means that if someone wants to buy the table they can ask you to move. It's a much bigger problem on Friday Afternoons. They won't let you sit there because the do have big spenders coming in willing to pay for the tables. 3 weeks ago they offered me a free VIP trip if I gave up my seat. I was getting ready to leave anyhow so I gave them my seat and took them up on the free VIP the next time I came in.

Having someone just show up and you getting kicked out of the table is annoying as fuck - happened to me once and they didn't "ask" me if I could move, they told me to move - bouncer even wanted me to move in the middle of my dances but my dancer told him no way that he had to wait till we were finished doing dances - I was preety-pissed - that club is too-small and too-crowded to have that kinda system

How much do they charge for a table?

^ IDK - I assume part of it is if you buy a bottle so then of course they need ro provide you a table - but I think of lot of the time is someone tipping the staff "to get them a table" - but the way these tippers "are getting a table" is buy getting someone removed from a table that was there b/f them - but there could be a club price for a table, IDK bc I'm an out-of-towner and not a Follies regular but been there about half-a-dozen times (maybe more since I hit the club multiple times when I'm in town)

The drug dealer once bought my table. He told me he paid $100.

Obviously front room friendliness will make everything go better.

But so sometimes the girl will be approaching you when you are on a couch? But most people prefer the high tables around the perimeter, and this is because the couches get too crowded?

So these high top tables have bar stool height seating?

I will be making my first trip to the club this weekend, we shall see how it goes. Day drinking and strippers sounds like a sure winner to me.
