Reading this back I realize that the $100 cash for two songs is less than the $20/dance that is normal at Delilah’s. Regardless, they seemed to accept it, perhaps it’s part of their VIP hustle.

@lurkingdog - sorry for the confusion. $100 cash (no more no less remark) was for two songs, after I paid, that during the dance I spent some time going back and forth with ringleader about VIP while the other girls danced, this negotiation definitely lasted more than 2 songs. I was stringing them along to a certain extent. After declining I paid them each $50 via Cashapp for another few songs, I think it was closer to three as ringleader continued trying to sell VIP. I wrote this review as soon as I got home last night, and can’t precisely recall if I requested two or three songs. I understand the exact number of the second set of songs is confusing as in the OP I said three, and my comment above says two. I was definitely focused on ignoring ringleader and enjoying the dance, and feel I got my money’s worth. If I did only get two songs, obviously I overpaid the going rate by $10 a girl (paid $50 each, rate is $20 a song) but for three of them at once it wasn’t unreasonable to me. I know it was about half an hour in the booth from when I closed my bar tab on my cc to when I stepped out of the club. Hopefully that answers your question. Please let me know if I’m still being unclear.

Something I forgot to point out was the songs felt very long compared to my normal hometown spot. 3-5 minutes each, some maybe even longer, Devin mentioned that the DJ was pretty hammered which if true that may have had something to do with it. It’s also possible hometown spot is a song mill. I’m a little new to the scene so if anything sounds out of line please let me know and I’ll do my best to clarify. @59 - yes, that’s correct, I forgot to mention that. $25 min is for card. Bartender did take my ID in addition to my CC which made me uneasy. She wasn’t super attentive or particularly friendly and I had to flag her down with only a few patrons at the bar. Would recommend paying cash at the bar to avoid any issues. @funonthaside - The first dancer (Devin) had briefly mentioned that they pay a decent fee to pick up shifts, so that may have something to do with the flexible pricing but I’m not totally sure. Can’t remember the exact dollar amounts. Her initial quote of $20/song seemed in line with other reviewers here. I’m not super familiar with how that all works on the back end of things generally speaking, so take my inference with a grain of salt. I’ll look to the TUSCL crew here for more well-informed insight. The trio may have some more leniency if they actually have a decent amount of success with their VIP conversion. For the extra few songs, I paid them using Cashapp, making sure to scan their codes and type in payments myself. They also insisted I pay them each individually, not one of them and sorting it out themselves, which may be indicative of them balancing eTransfers along with cash with club staff at the end of the night.
