Most of my posts are based on my own experiences. So, there's really no need to search (unless I may be repeating myself).

I'm with Shadow. Also, I'm surprised that a late '50's Rambler wasn't on the list.

The Deja Vu clubs here in Washington state seem to have "fired from all clubs" policy. When a dancer gets fired from one of their clubs, she's then prohibited from working at any of the company's other clubs in the state. And they seem to do that for fairly small offenses. I know a dancer who was fired from all of their clubs (9 total, presently), for a "misunderstanding" on which days she was to work. The company was of the opinion she missed three shifts. She was of the opinion she had approval to miss them. She went back months later to ask for her job back, and they said no. The Vu still had record of the "incident."

Married with Children had some great episodes involving the local strip club, the "Jiggly Room." I met a stripper in 1996 at (now) Bare Elegance, Van Nuys, CA, who played a stripper, "Rocki Mountains," on the show. She's Letha Weapons: http://www.boobpedia.com/boobs/Letha_Weapons.
She was the first of six stripper-porn actresses that I would eventually meet.

Your title is "a question . . . " However, you made a statement, you didn't ask question. Care to rephrase it as a question?

I concur with lopaw. Two strikes within a "short" period of time, is all it would take for me to lay off of a dancer for a long while. What lopaw hits on is part of an article I've been wanting to write. Dancers don't realize the value to a customer of even a $20. dance. Just think of in place of spending $20. for a two and a half-minute dance, what else you could do entertainment-wise. Two get into a movie, two hours long, for that same money. Dancers tend to treat us customers as if even $20. is just pocket change.

I'd be thrilled to have 124 strip clubs in my state.

I'm with Pablo. I mostly only talk to dancers, and very specifically, I don't want them to know about TUSCL. I don't want the dancers I know reading my posts on TUSCL. However, I do generically mention to dancers about strip club subjects I've read "on the web." They're not usually curious enough to know which web site I may be referring to. Here in Seattle, among dancers anyway, another strip club website is better known.

Art, It's just a function of the geography that you cover. I enjoy your reviews and other posts. Keep 'em coming!

I'm with those, above, that don't care for a numeric rating system. I prefer to describe another women in words and be satisfied that I like her appearance and personality.

If you can think of some names of closed clubs, you can still get their listings through the TUSCL search feature. Just type in the name and add "closed" next to it and that should produce some closed clubs. If you don't know a specific name, that's more complicated. I just tried the search phrase "New Jersey closed" and it didn't reveal anything. Try scanning the list of cities and see if one city comes up one club short of what you recall.

Strip Joint prices are standard. I can't comment on Bare 'N' Legal. I moved from L.A. in 2006. I still keep up with what's going on at the Strip Joint, but BNL opened after I left. I did go to BNL once on a return visit to L.A., but haven't followed that club since. Also, for Southern California clubs, get familiar with www.zbone.com TUSCL isn't nearly as well known in So. Cal. as Zbone is.

That's probably the best. Next best might be in Pomona, not that far from COI. The Strip Joint, not a fancy club, has $10. dances (supposed to be limited to bikini, but they get away with topless and mutual touching.) VIP is $75./five songs topless, or $125. nude. Might also check the Blue Zebra in North Hollywood.

@ Shark: Your second paragraph, first sentence is the key to the "mixed emotions" some reviewers encounter. Some things are good, and some are bad, but overall, with so few factors to consider, it's difficult to *quantify* a strip club experience. Personally, I don't use any of the quantified lists. I don't like to rate dancers or clubs on a 1 to 10 scale; I rather prefer to *qualify* my experiences and go with words, as a guide, rather than numbers. (I was never good at math, anyway.)
@ Rick and Inno: Excellent comments!

I have 41 pics of dancers I have known. (Some are shown more than once.) About half are photos they've sent me. Those were mostly an enticment to get me to either come into their clubs to see them, or do an OTC with them. The rest are pics that they allowed me to take of them in our OTC sessions. Some are cropped so as not to show their faces. But, non are photoshopped. Fours others are professional pics that I've included just for fun.

I recall reading in Playboy decades ago, that if you like busty women, hang out around black women. As a skilled and seasoned boobologist, that would appear to true--that a higher percentage of African American women are boobulous.

When I lived in L.A., I had been going mostly to the east San Fernando Valley clubs which was the closest area to where I lived that had strip clubs. I commented to a dancer one night that it seemed lame in the club I was in. After not even knowing that high mileage clubs existed, the dancer said, "Oh, have you ever been to the Tropical Lei, in Upland?" I had not ventured any further east than where I was that night (Glendale, CA) for strip clubs. She then said, "It's the nastiest strip club in L.A." I was off to Upland for my next club outing. I wasn't disappointed. Then I found out about the clubs in the nearby City of Industry. That was all before strip club websites were available.

I believe that the word, "cop" is also British in origin. It's an acronym: C.O.P., for constable on patrol.

The worst problem I ever had with a dancer that wouldn't leave me alone, was when I told her I had no more money that night. Her response was, "Let me see your wallet." She happened to be a black girl. I do like and seek out black girls in clubs. She was new to that club around that time. Fortunately, I never saw her a second time, anywhere.

When I lived in L.A., a favorite club of mine was the Strip Joint in Pomona. It's still there. They still have $10. lap dances. They're out in an open area, but the club is very dark. It's a great way to try out a dancer before commiting to a 5-song VIP for all of $75. or $125. nude. I probably spent more there than the conventional $20/dance clubs because of the value and when the dancer asks, "Want another?" and I think it's only another $10. So I say, "Sure." I wound up saying that a lot more times than I intended to!

Generally, anywhere, clubs that serve alcohol offer less mileage. That may be because they make the majority of their money from liquor sales. So, they're very protective of their liquor licenses, and enforce dance/touching/extras rules more so than nude clubs. Nude clubs, generally, don't serve alcohol, and subsequently, don't have that concern. Hence, they can get away with more, mileage-wise. Vegas is probably the same.

I concur with Motorhead. I don't like dancers who smoke or who have tats, but I'll tolerate a little of either. My four major faves don't smoke and don't have tats, either. I like it that way. Those are among the reasons I've been a regular of those four girls for five to nine years, now.
Fortunately, the two states I've lived in (CA and WA) since I started club-going have prohibited indoor smoking. Occasionally, a dancer will come up to me who had been outside, smoking on her break, and then covered the smoke breath with Altoids. That seems to work fairly well, but I can still detect the odor of cigarette smoke.

I've had the occasion a few times to suggest that a dancer retreat to the dressing room to freshen up. It has happened right as she comes off stage and has done an athletic performance on the pole. Sensing the problem ahead of time, if she comes over to me right after her stage, I try to quickly place my hand on her back. It seems like that's the first part of the body to show perspiration. If it's wet, and I think I'll want dances from her, after she asks for dances, I'll say something like, "You must be tired after that stage show you just gave. How about you cool off for a few songs, and then we'll have our dances." It's never caused a problem for me to say that to a dancer.

I knew a dancer for a few years who openly told me that she dutifully files her income tax return every year, but she never declares more than $50,000. She owns her home. She's guessing that if the IRS ever connected her with owning her home, she'd have some 'splainin' to do.
