Went to this club on a Thursday night with my wife. It had been a year since we’d gone here together, since we live out of the area, and apparently management has changed in that time. The previous year, Thursday nights were designated “couples nights” and there were specials specifically targeted at couples. So we went into the club this year with the anticipation of the night being similar to last year. Because of the management change, this year it was just an ordinary weekday night. Cover was $10 each - $5 admission plus $5 bottomless drink.

Last year, the closest seating to the stage was a row of couches about four to five feet from the edge of the stage. This year, there was a narrow table that ringed the stage with chairs right at stage side. We sat down at one of the tables just behind that first row, so just a short distance from stage. There were few customers on hand (us, one other couple, and two or three guys that were on their own).

The dancers were predominantly white, with one black dancer (more on her later) and one latina. The girls stage performances were quite varied – one girl did little more than stand and sway back and forth while others were up and down the poles, or pulling tipping audience members faces into their chests.
