Tip parade, yet no stage dancing? Make it make sense. It's no wonder dancers these days are deemed lazy. You don't get a tip just for standing beside me and asking for one. If you're not dancing on stage, get expect a tip, there better be some ass-grinding or hand roaming involved.

Can't get my head around $30 LDs in 2006, especially since clubs had more action back then.

The fact that the club bills itself as a nude club, while not requiring dancers to get naked is a bit scammy. Too many dancers here refuse to get nude. I don't buy into the "they only get naked when guys are tipping enough" propaganda, as I'm not going to dump more than a few dollars of cash on girl, then have her not get naked.

Purple Orchid is reliable, and some good experiences can be had at The Pic, albeit with lower mileage than elsewhere (but still better than Oasis).

There is more than the Jersey handshake which is standard operating procedure at PHL. Singularly is right about the premium by Tatianna. There is enough information on this site to provide people with knowledge to avoid the tip girls. However, Tatiana and others can command their premiums because they seem to be in demand.

Can Elysium and Horsehoe compete with the luxurious nature of Lust? Absolutely not. Do PLs sometimes prefer the unpretentious nature of the non-Lust clubs? Absolutely! While they don't compete based on the level of club, they DO compete based on the premise of competing for where men choose to spend their money.

Which clubs have been bought by Lust? Are they currently operating? Martinsburg was once a strip club hotspot, but that have changed over time, with one being abandoned, one turned into a store, and other(s) that have since closed.

I didn't think so, but there appear to be people who think The Pic is less hood than La Pearl/OuterSpace. They are both located in residential neighborhoods, with parking on nearby streets. I suppose someone more well-versed in the Philly sections (West Philly, North Philly, etc) may be able to more succinctly summarize each area than I can. Both are in urban neighborhoods....they feel the same to me. They are certainly less hood than Baltimore's Block IMO.

If she got up to get with another guy, while I was paying, that would be the last money she would ever get from me. I would never interrupt another guy's time with a girl.

....yet Amanda didn't inherit the customer satisfaction gene....and I've made Kiara aware of that, suggesting that she train her a bit.

The girls at The Pic aren't exactly non-hood girls. But, you did use the term superhood, so I suppose there is relativity involved in levels of hood characteristics.

Seeing the heifers who dance at Millstream makes me believe the food must be good, or at least filling.

Seems in line with the Domenican MO. However, when I did dances with a Domenican girl here a few weeks ago, I had a good experience. When I walked in during nightshift, typically being a dayshift guy, I thought "oh, great...Domenicans", and expected to be disappointed. However, I had a good experience. Another example of Clancy's being a good club...even when they have Domenicans.

The Pic is a common destination. Some also dance at PO. Another dancer mentioned Gold Club.

Do you really think leaving a pimp is easy / without dire consequences?

rickmacro - Minimum expectation for an OF girl is getting naked. If they have an OF account and are PG rated, their subscribers are supersimps. My point about using their strip club contacts to develop subscribers to OF is based on the fact that you need some method to draw people to your OF site. There are too many other sites where you can see pussy for free, for someone to pay OF subscription fees.

With respect to datinman's comment...."I'm Alexander Hamilton...looking forward to my visit tonight".

Never trust, but do respect. They are doing a job which requires them to socialize and do other things with guys they would not otherwise associate with.

Multiple reasons..... 1 - Verify validity of ID (although that's relevant only if system is linked to a database to verify validity, which raises further concern, as it means a government agency has the ability to track who goes to a club, not only the club management) 2 - Track "don't permit entry" customers, if customers are banned from club due to incident. I once witnessed someone getting tossed from a club, with bouncer noting "you're banned for a year...we're flagging in our system). 3 - More easily track down / report customers in the event of an illegal act (assault, fighting, leaving without paying, etc). I also find it to be intrusive, and often walk away, but that depends on my commitment to going to that club (want to see a certain girl, have had an otherwise good experiences at club, I need my fix, and it's the closest option at the time). I've tried the "don't have it, it's in my car" approach only somewhat successfully. I do believe that for clubs where you are known, you can get it waived. But, that may require you to ask door person to get person A/B/C, if the door person doesn't know you...which is a bit of a dick move, but I've used it periodically. It depends on my mood at the time.

rickmacrodong - Why do OF girls need to be strippers to succeed at OF? There are millions of girls with OF accounts....the only way to have any meaningful number of subscribers is to build up clientele from strip club customers. Ultimately, a girl is a girl, and pussy is pussy. Even if you filter on "petite AA girl", you will get thousands of hits. Same with IG....you need something unique to draw attention to yourself.

A desk in room? For role-playing secretary over desk, or BJ under desk?

Wow...you Baltimore 'burbs guys are simpimg with your matching tips for LDs/ VIPs. S is for "suckers" and "simps". I'm not foolish enough to waste my time and money, when there are so many better options near there.

Don't fall for the $30 for dance plus $30 matching tip hustle. If they balk, refer them to the sign in bathroom which states you are not obligated to match the house fee.

No way this is a 7-up joint.

OF girls need to be strippers to make $ on OF. If they can latch onto their SC regulars, they can leverage their SC contacts to build some recurring revenue from OF subscriptions. But, stripping continues to be necessary to generate adequate income.
