Decided to check out The Block...

Decided to check out The Block in Baltimore Halloween afternoon. I've never been down there before, and it seemed like an interesting way to spend Halloween afternoon, with the wife out of town for work. I stopped into (in order) Club Pussycat, the Red Room, Chez Joey, Diamond Lounge, Norma Jean's and finally the Hustler Club.

here were three places I walked in and walked right back out. The first was Club Pussycat. There was one girl dancing and a bartender sitting by the door. The next was Chez Joey. The scene was almost the same as Club Pussycat, except that there were two girls besides the bartender, but neither was dancing. They offered to get one of them on stage if I came in a bought a drink, but I passed. Finally, when I poked my head into Norma Jean's there were several customers in the place, but I didn't see anyone dancing. It looked more like a regular bar, and the looks I got from the people inside didn't make me feel like I was going to be welcome, so I walked back out.

I did stay at the Red Room (review posted) the Diamond Lounge, and Larry Flynt's Hustler Club. I decided to finish my day at the Hustler Club. I'd been in a Hustler Club in So. Cal, and wanted to see how it compared, and how it translated to The Block's style of club. I paid my first cover of the day at the here, but it was only $5. The girl at the door let me know that the cover was good all day (I could leave and come back on that same $5, and drinks were only $5 today.
