First Experience in a NZ club.
Visited Showgirls in the early evening, during a brief visit to Auckland. Free entry, and well priced drinks – a beer was only $8NZ much the same as in any bar. The lounge is clear and well-maintained, with a couple of stages. Girls were dancing on the main stage, and you could sit around it, or near it, and get a fine view. I guess there were about 10 clients, and about the same number of girls, some sitting with a guy. The girls danced a typical three songs, stripping to naked by the last one. Girls were 8-9, giving a good show, no complaints! During the set, and at the end, the girls would come round the spectators looking for a tip – the change for your drinks comes as the relevant number of $2 bar cash, and typically you tip the girl with one of these. After a couple of rounds with a single girl, they stared putting two girls on the stage at once, and each girl would come round. Personally, I did not like this system: there was no choice whether you tipped the girl or not. In the US (Texas at least) it is discretional, you tip the girls you fancy up at the stage and how they respond to tip often gives you an idea how they will work out in a lap dance. And you have a chance to see a reasonable selection of girls before you make your choice. While I was intended to have a dance or two, the system annoyed me and I left. I guess it is the NZ way, but I was not impressed. Be that as it may, it is a good locale if you don’t mind the system: and given the reasonable price for the bar drinks, overall the cost is acceptable.
