Summary of two recent visits; one on Sat nite, the other on Thursday nite. Temptations is now [mostly] topless stage & top on VIP [but see ‘Dancers’ below] Eight to twelve dancers present. Moderate crowd on Sat, including two bach parties; maybe a dozen patrons on Thurs.

Physical [6]: Club well-described already. Changes -- Men’s room redone [finally!!]. Same layout but much cleaner and brighter. But VIP couches have many areas of foam padding showing thru ripped fabric. Very dark except near entrance bar area. The predominant flat black paint seems to absorb light & energy like the SC version of an astronomical black hole. It does NOT absorb sound. As always music is WAY TOO LOUD; making conversation nearly impossible except at bar area..Generally uncomfortable seating. Smoking prohibited but apparently tolerated near stage. As before, a juice bar with alcohol bars next door and down the street.

Dancers -- Mix of white & AA with one Asian. Range 6 to 8 if you like small-breasted average to slim girls with 2 to 3 voluptuous types mixed in. Most are new here; less than a year, a few only started working weeks ago. Two admitted being in an altered state of mind, others likely were based on past experience. No obvious dancer drama as in some past visits but still noticeable tension and wariness among dancers new to working together. Some obvious cattiness --”be careful, she’s a tattletale” heard in VIP.
