The following is also a summary...

The following is also a summary of two trips, both on Friday nights. In general I like it here, but there are enough little things that get under my skin that it just doesn’t seem worth the effort. The main thing this place has going for it is so far seems to be that it is consistently in the top two of area clubs for eye candy. Sadly, I’m not in any hurry to return.

Parking here is such s*** fest that I loose motivation just thinking about it. One option is to valet it at the club but I’m not supper comfortable with that. Per TUSCL info I parked on Island Ave. up the street beyond the bus stop. It was a little sketchy. (Look for the no parking signs.) The road is narrow and most people seem to park half on the curb. I’m not from the ‘burgh, so I am not very familiar with the immediate area of the club and parking enforcement. Plus, it’s a hassle to then get turned around when you are leaving. It is just a headache before even setting foot inside the club. I can also confirm that there is a sign at the front door of the club which says to valet or park on Island Ave or you’ll get towed from the side streets.

Cover is $20. Not a bad cover price in general, but steep after being at Silky’s. Club is non-smoking, which I really liked since non-smoking SC’s can be hard to find in the keystone state. There is a door off the main stage area the leads to a smoking patio. Stages are at an ok height, but a little high IMO. When sitting at the stage, I wasn’t being hit up for a dollar per song early on. As the number of dancers present and on stage ramped up, it got to the point where a dancer circulated by once per song.
