After several months I returned to Pleasures yesterday (Friday - 9/23/11). Got in before 6:00PM and left after 7:00PM.

There were about 8 to 12 dancers during my visit. May be more dancers on the way. Many of the dancers were freindly, and some were not. When I entered dancers were on 3 stages doing their 3-song sets. For about 15 minutes dancers were only one stage. Seemed like shift change time. Afterwards, dancers were on all 5 stages doing their 3-song sets. Tipping action is so so to great. Dancers still make their rounds after they danced on stage to ask for tips.

This is the first time, I have seen some turn-over. Many new dancers, in addtition to the old timers. Even all new bartenders and waitresses. LD's are the downside still firm at $30/song lasts about over 2 minutes to 4 minutes. Prices are firm because $10 from each song goes to the house. So there is not much room for the dancers to make some deals. If the LDs were $20/song (some dancers used to make some kind of deals when the LDs used be $20/song, and that was about 3 years before the remodelling), I would have given much higher rating to the club (without cutting songs short, sometimes they do) with full length songs.
