Features That Do Not Strip

Has anyone seen a gentlemen's club try to get people in the door with appearances by musicians or celebrities that are not dancers or porn stars? In my early days of strip clubbing, I remember Henry Hill (the main character from the film Goodfella's) was doing a tour with several stops in strip clubs. You could get his autograph, a picture with him, or just talk to him. I did not go, but heard from a friend that he was pretty interesting to talk and down to earth. I was told he drank like a fish and smoked like a chimney. I don't understand why he wanted to be out in public though after he ratted on the mob. The other instance I have seen is at the Gold Room. They will bring in guest DJ's to play electronic sets on the weekends. Some are well-known internationally like Laidback Luke and NERVO. I guess playing at a strip club doesn't hurt their career.

    Fuckin Henry Hill - you used to be able to buy his paintings on the internet - I wanted to buy one, but 5 year olds at the local kindergarten painted better than him.

    Oh tons of DJ's you see. I don't give a fuck about DJ fuckhead.

    And I think back in the day you would have stand ups do strip joints. IIRC Jay Leno did stand up before there were comedy clubs at early incarnations of strip clubs. That doesn't sound like a great mix though.

    True. Early days most comedians had to start out in strip clubs.

    I imagine that MMA fighters could do autograph / press events at strip clubs and it would be well attended. I could also see that going horribly wrong under right set of unfortunate circumstances.

    Not so much anymore. Stormy Daniels did an appearance at Ultra Palm Beach during the 2016 election since it’s right across the street from Trump National golf course. I also recall seeing promos a while back where Teen Mom Farrah Abraham was doing strip club appearances. I don’t think she got naked (although she did make a couple of decent pornos).

    I went to Windsor Ontario to see Jessica Hahn (the secretary who brought down Jim Baker). It was billed as a "performance", she didn't dance or take off a stitch. My friend and I asked for our money back (they were charging extra for her) since there was no performance at all. Of course we were refused.

    @PL2: "I went to Windsor Ontario to see Jessica Hahn...she didn't dance or take off a stitch." You didn't miss much. She was in Playboy, and her pics looked rather more than somewhat airbrushed at the time. I remember being "well that's nice" and on to the next.

    Not live features, all I've seen is sports pay-per-views. But it's often boxing, and they are topless. Never gone myself, not a sports fan.

    I was at a Michigan Club when a young rapper put on a brief show. Brought his posse / entourage. Odd fit because it was mostly a Lilly white club

    I stage tipped Farrah Abraham, that’s the only brush with fame I ever had as far as strip clubs go

    I could see this working with clubs that focus on alcohol sales are more of the revenue. For Lap Dance factories this is a little silly.

    I think it was Pink Pony or Crazy Horse down in Pompano that did a string of that stuff for a while. They had Scott Disik and Mamma June, and probably some other similar "stars" as attractions. I never actually saw any of them, just the ads. The black clubs in Palm Beach do it too, they're almost more little concert venue's than strip clubs. Every weekend they've got someone up on stage rapping and are constantly running promos for that stuff. Rachels in Palm Beach often has DJ's that are well known, as do a number of clubs in Miami like Scarlett's and especially E11even. Booby Trap on the River in Miami often has that sort of thing too, they pretty much have a weekly celeberity promo, musicians, athletes, social media stars, whatever. BT OTR I think is the most prolific, but I think Tootsies does it occasionally too.

    Red parrot in El Paso would frequently have burlesque dancers, pornstars, that side of adult entertainment that was sfw. It was always a good vibe and brought out the ITC in hordes.
