First COI visit since the closure...

First COI visit since the closure of Hawaii Theatre. Synn was always my second-favorite club there, even back when it was Exotica or whatever around the turn of the century. Less walruses and less scary than Paradise, less desperate and grasping than Bliss, less "high-end" (full sarcasm intended) than the Rhino, and I just don't see the appeal of Deja Vu (the McDonalds of strip clubs, where the dancers are such that most reviewers seem to fantasize more about the waitresses...).

Synn is velvet plush inside; typically has at least 3-4 younger, trimmer hotties in the line-up; gets new dancers with some frequency; keeps the stage filled; has a good price structure ($10 daytime, free from 11 AM to 1 PM), $5 drink, very frequent 3-1 specials, decent song length (even specials), mild drink push, etc. In the past there was one annoying 40+ fat mamacita-ish dancer whose persistence nearly ruined it for me nearly everytime, but she disappeared about a year ago and wasn't here now. Instead there were 8-10 girls I hadn't seen before, and 2-3 I had; and a good variety of looks. Did not see any HT cast-offs. Biggest bummer is the VIP prices -- $250, I think; you really have to pay for COI privacy/fun at this place (although less than the $300 at Paradise). But you can get good mileage in relative privacy through back-to-back 3-for-1's, with a good share of the girls.

My two best experiences this time were with Corey (or Cody or something like that) and Sapphire, two new ones for me. Corey had a rockin' solid body and solid C's, with a good fun attitude and free roaming. Sapphire was firmer with smaller boobs and lighter hair, but another good attitude and whatever the opposite of a NFZ would be. Nothing too crazy in terms of mileage, but I wasn't pre-negotiating or pushing it this day; the vibe was good though, both with them and some other dancers I talked to. So I won't wait another six months to try again (although I'll try not to get there at 1:15 PM again, just missing the free admission time).
