Clubs on your bucket list

I read that the Cabaret Club in El Paso has been closed down for drugs and prostitution. That club was high on my bucket list of clubs I wanted to visit. Now, it will never be.
Another set of clubs I’d like to visit once are the Korean bars in Houston. I’m not aware of anything else quite like it in the US.
What clubs are on your bucket list ? Doesn’t have to be an extras club but should be something unique. Extra points for clubs that are not the obvious choices in Atlanta, Detroit, etc.

So there aren't any clubs that I really really wanna visit as in the past - but there are some I'd like to visit more-so to satisfy my curiosity:
* Hong Kong - mainly just to see what it's like - since I'm primarily and almost exclusively into ebony dancers, HK is not a must-see/have for me, more of a curiosity item
* King Henry VIII (LA) - black club which I learned about on TUSCL and have always read the reviews of it - kinda just wanna see what it's like after having read many reviews
* Ebonny Inn (near DC) - another black club I got to learn about via the TUSCL reviews - most black clubs don't get a lot of reviews but EI gets a good # of reviews and I kinda just wanna see it w/ my own PL-eyes after several years of reading reviews
A couple gone but not forgotten clubs would have been Wild Goose near LAX and the Million Dollar Club ( or some such name ) in Dallas. The first was homey and friendly while the latter had stunning dancers in a true gentleman’s club. It’s been years since I’ve been to Dallas. Maybe a club like that still exists.
In 1981, when Don Furrh opened the Million Dollar Saloon on Greenville Avenue-the first upscale topless club in Dallas and, perhaps, the first of its kind in the country-he announced that the place was named for its price tag. That seemed a staggering investment in a business previously thought to cater to the shallow-pocketed masses of bored husbands, blue-collar rowdies, perverts, college boys, and 5 dirty old men. Could that market pay for the pink palace that didn’t = even look like a topless joint? Valet parking at a strip bar? A VIP S room? Lights and sound to rival a Stones concert? Hey, this is a place > where guys go to look at naked women.
But Furrh had found the pulse and hit a vein. The suits and gold chains showed up in droves, and instead of holding old pick-ups and Chevettes, the parking lot on most nights was curb-to-curb yupmo-biles. Dancers were pocketing-G-stringing, actually-as much as $10,000 a month in tips. The but-toned-down boys in the glass caverns from Commerce Street to Las Colinas, the rich young professional athletes, the conventioning professionals, and corporate executives had found a playground and the sexually oriented business (SOB, as it is known in licensing circles) would never be the same. Were Don Furrh alive today, he might be a little astonished at the world he helped create. A million bucks would barely cover the wall hangings in the “gentlemen’s clubs” being built today.
Famous clubs that I do want to hit though would be Mons and Tootsies.
In my teens it started with reading Playboy articles about the Mansion parties and exploits at Trapeze and other swing clubs. Then hot spots like New York, California and Miami. It included cruise ships full of nudists and swingers and of course the Caribbean oasis’s like Hedonism and the sex clubs on the Yucatán. After visiting most of these places I reloaded the list with far flung locations from Holland and Germany to Thailand.
Over many years the desire and drive to see it all and do it all has waxed and waned making room for raising a family, building a company and various real life issues. I was lucky to have a wife who supports the quest to experience everything and she accompanied me to most of the places and most of the stateside club visits as well.
I recognize @Papi’s ambivalence since I’ve been there a couple times myself, I suggest the pendulum will swing back for him though. Papi, since I think you’ve been spending time at Haulover, maybe look into some of the worldwide nude areas in other countries, there is a whole town on the French Riviera, called Cap D’Al or something like that, you might want to add to your list.
Now that so much of my bucket list is done, I’m considering Columbia and other Central and South American locales. I’ve also got a desire to spend time at some more of the New Jersey clubs and in all my travels and thousands of club visits we have never spent a week or a weekend in Detroit just clubbing, so that will be in the future. I hope that scene survives intact at least until I get the time to experience it.
I want to check out Diamond Dolls in Florida someday but if I don't I will be OK.
My bucket list is outside the US: Thailand, Germany, the Philippines, and Columbia.
As far as strip clubs, I would like to check out Mitchell Brothers in San Fran sometime.
"If/when Follies gets shut down I can see a Floriduh road trip happening. "
That almost makes me hope they shut it down, my friend!
I’ve never been to any of them but the reviews are unlike anything I’ve read elsewhere.
From my friends stories Japan and Korea are not good mongering havens.
One of my favorites in Phoenix is Taiwanese. Saves on airfare !
You’d love them both. EI is a bit hood, like a step below Blaze in Atlanta. Henry VIII is a nicer physical place than I would have expected. Lots of fine AA girls in that place.
I was supposed to make a first trip to HK in TJ in two weeks but now need to be somewhere else. Will try again on May trip back that way.
Thanks for the info
There are a few other clubs in TJ but you named the best three, among the others are Deja Vu, Playboy Club, and Amenesia.
Your experience may very but I didn't find any if them worth my time, the main appeal might be to get away from the crowds and find a diamond.

Doesn't matter to me. Never going there in any case, so my imagination can run wild! Sometime imagining is better than real life. :)
