My first time here in several...

My first time here in several years. It is my understanding that all three clubs in downtown Springfield are owned by the same group that owns Mardi Gras. Also discovered on this visit that some of the girls at the clubs are from outside the area and that Mardi Gras has rooms available for them but they must be in by 2 AM.

At Center Stage after 7 there is a $5 cover with no pressure to purchase drinks. The club itself is well arranged with the exception that the bar faces a wall and not the center stage area. This has always been a little puzzling. There are stools around the center stage where one sits to observe the dancers, mostly they appear and stand and chat with other dancers with little to none pressure for dances. If you want a dance you simply make eye contact and place a couple bucks on the bar/stage. The nude dance occcurs at your eye/face/lip level. Followed usually by an invitation for a private dance. There is no dollar parade so it's very easy to hold onto cash.

Couch dances are held in a blocked off area with perhaps the best condition couches I have ever seen at a club. Dances are nude and $25 each...one qualifier however some girls want to know how many dances you plan to "adjust" the degree of comfort they plan to deliver.

There is also a private dance area...not certain of the price or the extent of enjoyment available.
