Perfume is always nice. We go through a ton of it. A body spray would work well too seeing that it is not as expensive as perfume and easier to replace. This could also lead into a bath and body type of gift, some scented shower gel, body lotion, body spray, with one of those poofs. It's always an appreciated gift.
Whatever you do, absolutely no stuffed animals. Come on, I'm a grown woman. I grew out of those fuzzy nightmares when I was 15 years old.

There really is nothing by the airport. Shame really. There is a peep show in an adult store, but I really don't consider those strip clubs. I believe it is listed on SCL, but I can't remember the name of it. Downtown there are only two clubs, Blush and Cheerleaders, just opened this month. Blush was rated the best strip club in Pittsburgh. Cheerleaders is too new for me to give you any review and they are not listed here, but they are on SCL. Within a $15 cab ride of the city is Erotica and Silky's, both have high covers but free beer only. They are listed here as well. Out of all of these, from what I've seen and heard from others, I'd recommend Blush.
To get to WVA it's all highway travel. I drive 65mph which is the speed limit along Rt. 22/30 going into Weirton. It only takes me 45 minutes as long as there isn't a concert in Burgettestown.
The Tennyson is where I work. It's listed as being in Bethel Park. The Curry is down the street from us and they are listed as Pittsburgh. I think it goes by mailing address. Unless you are familar with all the neighborhoods, it is hard to know all the clubs in the area of different cities. For all the clubs you can find in Pittsburgh, look at the area codes of the phone numbers, any 412 or 724 is within an hour of Pittsburgh and not all are listed here.

Minnow, what do I know? I only live and work in the Pittsburgh area. Last time I counted there are close to 30 strip clubs in and around Pittsburgh up to 1 hour driving.
It was a great overall game. I thought the Bruce Springsteen half time could've been better. I'm not a big Springsteen fan, but felt I knew a lot of his hits and I only recognized 2 of the songs he played. The Rolling Stones, Tom Petty, and Prince all put on a better show and didn't take up half of the time with chit chat. During a half time football game, I don't want to hear somebody talking unle4ss they are a sports commentator. Less talking, more entertainment by playing the songs everyhbody knows by heart.

arbeeguy, thanks for that post. I'm from Pittsburgh and have been hearing from Steeler haters all day that the Steelers won by cheating.
I thought it was a great game and thought the Cardinals won. How about th9ose commericals? Did anybody else catch the 1 second ad?
As far as strip clubs in Pittsburgh, there are only 2 in the actually cit, about 10 in neighborhoods surounding the city, and if a person is willing to drive an hour away from the city there are the clubs in Wheeling and Weirton, WV and Dallas Pike, OH. Which would add about 20 more clubs to the list. So, within an hour driving distance of downtown Pittsburgh there are 30 or more clubs.

I have a regular who comes in 2-3 times a year. He only comes to the club when his wife is out of town. She has no clue.
Before I started dancing my now ex-husband used to frequent clubs. I really didn't care. I felt that I was the girl he was coming home ready to jump into bed with. :-) Anyway, a few times, I asked him to take me with him and he refused each time.

"1. Combine a strip club with a casino. Win some money and then spend it on the strippers. Lose some money and then spend less or none on the strippers...LOL."
Funny somebody mentioned this. The club I work at had a Texas Hold'em Night. We gave away a free lap dance to the winner of each game. The guys played for point and not cash because of the state gambling law. I made a ton of money on those nights.

I have to agree with Yank. I've been in situations when a customer asks me to come sit with them or have a drink with them after I promise to spend time with somebody else. Of course I want to make money. I do weigh my options before I decide who I go spend time with first. No matter what, I do inform the customer waiting for my time what is going on. "I'm sorry I promise to sit with you after I was done on stage, but the gentleman at the end of the bar a bought me a drink. I'll spend some time with him. I'll try to make my way here to you." Usually I do make it back to the customer who I left waiting.
What really pisses me off is when a dancer will make a customer wait for dances. I also waitress at the club I dance at. It's part of my job to tell the dancers when and with who they have dances with. There are a few girls who find it more important to smoke a cigarette, sit down, talk to a regular, than to do a dance which was already paid for. Next thing I know, the bar staff has a very unhappy customer because of this and end up giving his money back or he switches to another girl. Our club is small and the stage rotation during a busy night only allows the dancer to sit for 3-6 songs. I understand the need for a break, but some dancers don't seem to understand that if they don't do their private dances they lose that money.
Anyway, from a dancer's point of view and being in the situation myself, I agree with Yank.

I work in a club where the dance prices are set and monitored. Sorry, I can't haggle over the cost of the dance or give out free dances. They come out of my tip money if I do. What I do instead is buy a drink/shot for a regular, bachelor, birthday boy, or guest of honor. These things don't cost too much, but it is also remembered by the customer. Plus this also give you an open to a new customer. As far as learning the dancing part, go to a few clubs and watch the girls. Learn to give lap dances by getting a few. It's best to learn the laws/rules of the state you will be working in and other states in the surrounding area.. I live in SWPA. I went to work in WVA a few times and they have different laws for clubs than PA. Ohio isn't too far from me either (I never worked in Ohio), but the law is different there from PA and WVA. So look into what is accepted by the state(s).

Hey Amanda,
Everybody so far has given good advice. There was a great advice given to me when I first started dancing 6 years ago. Leave the alter ego at the door. In other words, your dancer self should live only in the club. She should be a separate persona. Eye contact and smiling are big things too Make that man feel like he is the only other person in the room with you. Make him feel special. Other than what's been said already, that's it.
Btw, does anybody here know how to load a photo from a picture CD? I'm very new to this site and working from a friend's computer, mine is not working at all. I've tried for the past three days and it doesn't seem to upload the image I want to use.
