Been driving past Pure Platinum every once in a while to see if it would ever open back up. Last night I drove by and saw that, apparently, it is now permanently closed. Dirty Dan's/Pure Platinum had been in San Diego in one location or another for as long as I've been going to clubs in the San Diego area. When I first moved to the area, they had 4 or 5 locations open at the same time. They had gone downhill and business was terrible when I last reviewed the club.
Last night I drove by and saw the parking lot full and the sign out front said "Candy Shop". I came home and looked it up online and saw that they are advertising an opening this evening. I guess Scrubby would call this a "club ad" but haven't been. Just glad to finally see another club open in the SD Market. If this is topless with alcohol, it will only be the second one in the city like that. Last night must have been a pre opening celebration.
Just happy to see a new club in an old location. candyshopsd.com
From the website: "Candy Shop San Diego offers the best of nightlife and entertainment by introducing the Candy Shop Dancers, a troupe of choreographed professionals that will provide original choreography nightly as well as special shows. Add to that a varied and diverse troupe of entertainers like aerialists, jugglers, cosplayers and more to fill your evening with exciting and unique entertainment you will be talking about for weeks!"
Maybe that's just window dressing added to secure approval to open. But that description doesn't make it sound like the typical strip club we talk about on here.
