Came here on a Tuesday night...

Came here on a Tuesday night in February 2012. I read the reviews about the weird vending-machine dollar slots in the dance booths. Yeah, that's really how they do things. Never seen that anywhere else. It must kinda suck for the girls- but I ended up tipping my private dancer an extra $5 after the dance so maybe it works out OK for them.

The layout and the decor inside the club is pretty standard for deVu. Seats up at the rack, bunch of low tables with velvety uncomfortable chairs, lapdance area off to the left, bar and VIP at the back. Juice bar only, so bring your flask and have a nip before you go in. TVs in a couple of places running ESPN, which always kinda pisses me off for some reason. I want to be in a fun mood and forget about my troubles when I'm at the club, and watching commercials for Gatorade and car insurance always kinda shackles my buzz.

I got there about 6:30 or 7. I realize that Tuesdays suck, but it was really slow. Even the girls said so. There were four dancers on and one or two who were there but not working yet. Maybe two other customers- one big fat older dude at a table off to the side, not spending any money on anything, and one late 40s guy, pretty fit, reasonably well dressed, who all the dancers seemed to know pretty well. I wondered if he was the owner. If he was, that would mean I was the only customer who was tipping.
