Was in Baltimore a couple of weeks back for a convention downtown and wanted to get down to the "the block" since it was just a few blocks from my hotel. Some have commented that this is a sketchy part of town and Baltimore Street is not great but just a couple of blocks over is the inner harbor with lots of nice eateries. I had no problem walking around the area at night. Anyway, as for the clubs. I generally do not like to patronize chain clubs so I stepped into King & Diamonds. There were four black ladies lounging on the stage and no customers, this was about 8 PM. I did not stay. Tried Chez Joey. Actually went in. Had a beer. There were 4 or 5 girls, none I would really want to see naked. So I ended up a Hustler. On a Thursday night that had a $10 cover with $5 to upgrade to VIP, so I went for the upgrade. Decent looking club, much better than the other two, but not fabulous. Had a seat at a table near the stage, ordered a drink, think it was $7 or $7.50. Soon was joined be a lovely African American lady. We visited awhile before the waitress came by to ask if I wanted to buy the girl a drink. I asked the cost it it was the same price as the customer! Don't think I have ever seen that is a strip club and certainly much different that the $25 that I have seen quoted here at other clubs on the block. The young lady said that if I allowed her to give me a tour upstairs I would get a free shot, so why not. Saw lots of private rooms that ranged in price from $150 to $500 and more for 30 minutes, plus and area for 2 song private dances, where were $40. The lady was not pushy but made it clear that we could have fun. After getting my free shot, which turned out to Spice Rum, who takes shots of spiced rum?, we watch a few of dancers on stage upstairs. I decided on a 2 dance private dance. Though the club says the private dances as suppose to be hand off and there is a bouncer that circulated through the dance area, my dancer was good a concealing what was going on and my hand roamed extensively over her ENTIRE body. Great fun. Hustler is definitely the place to go on the block.
