What was the cover to get in the door. Rhino wanted $42 for a local entry fee which I passed on given the other options available.

In reference to your questions there could be some degree of contact in the VIP area but it depends upon the dancer and how deep your pockets are when you arrive at the club. The dancers are pretty much all in the category of 30 and below since the club reopened in the spring. Some girls are enhanced but I would guess that most are not at this point in time. Pretty easy to pick out the best talent since everyone on stage with strip down to high heels by the end of their first song assuming somebody is at the stage tipping. Most dancers here have visited the local tattoo parlor at least once so expect a moderate degree of ink but overall the stage talent rates generally between 7 to 8 once the night shift reports for work around 9 pm. I wouldn't show up earlier than 7 pm on weekends just to secure a booth near on of the two stages. By 10 pm a chair at either the bar or a booth will be hard to find so plan ahead if you are coming with a friend. There is limited parking next to the club with parking fees running between $3 to $5 (self park versus valet) if there is a slot available at all after 9 pm. Drink prices are pretty reasonable for a bar close to Waikiki but bottle service will be expensive as one might expect.

Moving over to the "9th Island" in less than ten days Papi so I can visit the Rio poker tables more frequently.

I can confirm the basics of this report. Last week I visited this club on a Thursday night and rolled back in again Saturday evening to see if there was any significant difference in the talent. The staff is definitely short of entertainers since it was not uncommon to see 2-3 songs in between main stage performances both nights. On stage auditions occurred both nights that I was in the building so hopefully within a few weeks it will begin to look like 2019 again. Crowd size was average on Thursday but Saturday evening was much better in comparison. I'll check it out again in early July when I return to Vegas.

Several of the major Las Vegas clubs starting with Spearmint Rhino are actively recruiting new personnel this week with on-site auditions for the female entertainers specifically requested in addition to hosts, bartenders, and club security positions. Rhino has been locked into a 9 PM to 5 AM business schedule Thursday through Sunday since they reopened earlier this year. The club is likely preparing to go back to a 7 day a week schedule starting 1 May hopefully opening the doors earlier for Happy Hour (5 pm?). Little Darlings is planning to reopen shortly as well depending on how many people they can hire this week.
