Visited here on a Friday night...

Visited here on a Friday night after the previous Friday visit to Jet Strip yielded dancers that just didn't do it for me. BE is a step up in terms of class/luxury, but you pay for what you get. Mandatory valet charge around $5, $15 (I think)cover (but you get a 2 for 1 dance ticket), I didn't have to buy a drink once I got inside, but I got one anyway.

Club is nice, and there were some talented dancers on the inside. Most of them look like they're on the younger side, and the rampant piercings/tattoos you get at some other clubs weren't there. The club was kind of dead for a Friday night, though. Lots of girls walking around, and the club was about half full of people, but the energy wasn't there. I'm not sure what their prices are for "normal" nights, but the weekend night rate is $51 for a nude dance (3 for $133, and I think you can get 3 for $150 something in the sky lounge, which is a private elevated area). I was pretty surprised when I heard that, considering most other clubs will range around $30 per dance. I didn't notice too many people getting dances, and at $51, I can see why. The girls were pretty aggressive about pushing for dances, but I didn't see many takers, which might have accounted for some of the grumpier dancers. I think some girls will do a topless dance for $41, but the ones I talked to said they did nude only.

After I chilled for a while, I decided to splurge since I saw a couple of dancers that were just my type. I grabbed the friendliest one for the 3-song dance and got an extra because of my ticket. Zero complaints about the dances, although the bouncer/dance monitor guy made a pretty big show of checking up on the dance booths, which kind of interrupted my groove.
