For those back at a club, any changes in the lineup?
nicespice
Tried to go back in the club for the first time in forever. First tried out one club, but the way the parking is handled (staff on one side, patrons in another), I could see the really unfavorable dancer/customer ratio and didn’t bother. Which was depressing because Wednesday nights are amateur contest nights and that usually at least brings in *some* foot traffic. Might have had to do with the heavy police activity about a block away, idk.
Went down the road to the dive club not too far away. Took the manager’s advice over there and decided not to work because of the dancer/customer ratio and would have had to pay $100 house fee. (It’s on me for showing up as late as I did 🤷🏻♀️) Will probably go back tomorrow but one thing I noticed before leaving was that holy cow the lineup is different. The stomachs are flatter and dancers looked more athletic. Still far from a thin girl club like others in this city, but different than I remembered for sure. No idea if most were newbies or returning dancers. But it was the opposite of any suspected quarantine weight gain people had talked about before.
Any observations about other areas?

There were about 10 dancers, so it makes the math simple.
20% were girls I recognized from previous visits. However, of three others I talked to two of them claimed to have worked there for 3 months and 2 years respectively. I can understand having never seen the relatively new girl. I can also believe the other girl if she has changed her look, her shift or her work days. The club has many dancers. the third girl was working her 2nd shift. Her day job is a grocery store baker.
As for quality, I would say 50% were normal quality for the club, but 50% were below to way below average.
I feel the same. I've also lost a bit of weight during the quarantine.
Haven't seen any of my "regular" dancers post-lockdown so it's too soon to tell, but I'm willing to bet there will be a lot of roster changes - too many eligible women unemployed or underemployed not to see an uptick in numbers as concern about the pandemic ramps down enough to draw regular crowds.
Shit, IME the SOs are the ones most eager for them to go back and start earning. I guess that Houston is a different sort of place. :)
Concepts in Lawrenceburg IN is mostly back to pre-China virus.
The vast majority are returning dancers. A few new faces. No noticeable weight gain.
Overheard management complaining about girls who are collecting unemployment not wanting to show up.
One would think that until the enhanced federal UI doesn't end (end of July) that this may cause many a dancer to stay on the sidelines (and it's not certain enhanced-UI is not extended past end of July, time will tell) - the enhanced-UI makes it for many-people more easy, if not more advantageous, to stay home and not go back to work.
