I had not been to MG...

I had not been to MG in a couple of years. I remember past disappointments. Let's just say that the club remains consistent. Perhaps 15 dancers in the building; hard to tell, since many have a way of becoming invisible when they're not on stage. I don't blame them, in a way; as someone else recently noted, turns on the stage are very lengthy, and undoubtedly tiring. The flip side is that many of the girls just stand there and look bored, rather than moving around the very large perimeter and looking like they want to engage the customers. Again, another caveat -- it is sometimes hard for some with a stack of singles to get a seat at the bar; the stools are often occupied at great length by rubes just there to look, without tipping.

The talent was overall pretty attractive, no real knockouts, and a couple of plus-sizes not to my taste. But mostly pretty and 25-ish, more skin art and silicone than I care for, but those are getting hard to avoid these days. A few girls circulate outside the bar and are fairly aggressive soliciting lap dances, but not obnoxiously so. Obnoxiousness comes from the loudmouth DJ and the Den Mother or Lap Dance Supervisor or whatever you want to call him. LDs are definitely pretty antiseptic, with only hints of what might happen should you upgrade to upstairs. I didn't.

Notwithstanding the supervised lot, this is not an area I'd want to be in after dark.
