I visited such shows in the mid-60's at the Ionia Free Fair in Michigan. Dances were mostly strip tease style with little nudity except the occasional flash. Much more explicit were the "freak shows" where hermaphrodites were on display up-close-and-personal. (I remember for these shows they separated the men and women for viewing the freaks.)

My first thought was, "What is Shadowcat doing in Wisconsin?"

After 80 years it is about time that we brought this definition into a modern context. What is lacking here, for perspective, is the reality that a large percentage of rapes occur in prisons between inmates. These are never included in national statistics because the feminists and their DOJ stooges have a different agenda. We men gain a better sensitivity to forcible sex acts when we consider that, in the right prison, we could be prime targets.

Silkypants consistently writes useful, detailed reviews.

40 years ago I saw a stripper named Amber Haze set her beaver on fire. Pretty impressive.

Thanks for the link. Saved me $5.

Went from Cocoa Beach to Ft. Lauderdale a couple of times when a fav dancer moved there. Let's just say it was worth it to me. LOL.

I was able to find the reviews by clicking on the reviewer's name and selecting their reviews. Must be a system problem for now.

SW is a very amusing. All the pinkies claim to be "clean" dancers and won't allow touching but within a couple of days, on other posts, they will admit to doing almost anything is the money is right!

Always thought this club was over-rated. Still do.

I agree with several of my TUSCL brothers that the issue isn't the law but rather the degree to which it is enforced. Michigan's laws are as strict as most other states while some local ordinances are even more draconian. This thing that makes SCs in MI great is that so many flout the laws and ordinances.

I still troll thru SW from time to time. It can be hilarious. A regular incongruity is the insistence of the girls that they never do extras or even LFK UNLESS THE MONEY IS RIGHT! A regular thread is whether to accept and invitation for OTC for a weekend. Most posters insist they never would unless they got $2-3K for it. In other words, these girls are not whores until the right amount of $$$ is available and then they whore themselves out

I have fond memories of the way Memphis used to be in the early '80s. Pretty wide open town and the first high mileage LDs I ever experienced. I remember visiting once during one of the South's famous ice storms. There was a general power outage and most of the airport strip clubs were closed. Didn't seem to deter the dancers; they roamed the hotel parking lots giving BJs in customer cars. Sorry to see the way Memphis has deteriorated.

Have done this only rarely and did not notice any improvement in attention or satisfaction.

I can appreciate and occasion presentation of the inventory but the girls all hate it. Don't know if they think of it as de-humanizing, Art, but they report that they can make little or no money during that song. Accordingly, I think a reasonable compromise would be to limit these line-ups (what Bogart's calls "finale") to no more than once an hour.

Am much of a nuisance as the wrist bands are, I still much prefer a one-time fee to the "toll charges" to enter some SC VIPs (Flint, etc.) I have learned to remove the band without damage, go out to have dinner, and reattach the band when I return to the club later. This not only saves the $10 band fee but also saves any question about another door entry fee.

Was at John's Hot Spot Thursday and, as some of you know, Thursday is their $10 dance day. Usually this is a good thing. This time, however, I encountered a young coed who made it clear that, if I was to see or touch the kitty, the charge would be $20 per dance. Wasn't interested at that point and left her in the VIP after only two dances. My usual Thursday routine there is to get 4 or 5 dances from each dancer, sometimes as many as 8 dances if things are going well. If the charge is $20, I better be getting great mileage or I will stop after a couple of dances.

No, what happened to her was tragic and deplorable under any circumstances. What I find interesting is the way the media dance around the matter of two unrelated persons traveling together to Aruba. We are required to do a lot of "reading between the lines" here. Bet even the inept Aruba police have figured this one out.

Got a pretty good LD from the waitress at John's Hot Spot back in December. Last week I noticed another server take a customer upstairs for a few LDs. Since John's requires dancers to have pasties, I wonder if the server had any. Mine didn't last year. Currently John's bartenders are almost all dancers or former dancers. (It should be noted that John's is not in Detroit and avoids most of the licensing issues of the city.

I think Founder does a pretty good job of ruling out reviews that are obvious outliers but occasionally a club will jump into the top ten when, IMHO they belong no where near the top, i.e. Lido in Cocoa Beach. Others seem to have fans for reasons that are inscrutable to me, i.e. Brad's Brass Rail in Indy (seriously?). Like you, Art, I think I have developed some standards and am not impressed by the decor or the hotness of the bartender. I am most interested in great LDs. My reviews, and those I care about, are primarily driven by the LDs.

Saw Lotta Topp once and she made sure all of us copped a feel of her boobs. She also flashed her famously enormous clit but no touching that. Don't think I would ever pay additional cover for a feature.

I had a memorable experience a while ago related to street attire. On a particularly dead Sunday afternoon the cocktail waitress got permission to give me some LDs. She went with me to the VIP dressed in her street clothes - jeans, t-shirt, etc. She stripped down to a pair of panties and straddled me. I must say it was a very erotic way to begin the dances.

I am of the school that believes it is good form to tip all dancers for an acceptable show. I always tip at least $2 since I remember tipping $1 30 years ago. Anything less than $2 seems kinda cheap. When I want to differentiate myself PLs I tip $5.
