Been to the Carousel a few...

Been to the Carousel a few times over the last few months. The barmaids are usually hot, friendly and provide attentive service. The usual SC prices for beer. I've never run into a cover despite lot's of signs about minimum drink reqs. Atmosphere is very laid back. Layout is a center stage with two poles and a bar wrapped around it. There's a 5 seat dance room and a couple of VIP booths with curtains. That's it - just a lean bar with topless friendly gals. Smoking seems to be the norm here with both the guys and gals puffing away. Bar stools are a bit run down but have backs and swivel, so you can get somewhat comfortable.

After entering and grabbing a seat, the barmaid will ask you what your having and then in a minute or so one of the gals will come by and say hi. They'll chat for a bit and, depending on the gal, ask you to buy them a drink, ask if you want a dance, sit to chat, get in real close and friendly or just plain grab your junk. Most gals will stay until they weasel a dance ($30 for 3min or $100 for $15 - pay the bouncer at the dance area). Gals range in age from young to older, a range of shapes, ethnicity and attitude. 4's up to 8's. If it's slow like it is mid-week, they'll hang out and chat, snuggle for an hour or so. If she's not your type, you'll need to send a signal and they'll usually take it without fuss. Other girls won't generally engage while you're with someone already.

Each girl gets a rotation on stage (within and behind the bar) for a couple of songs. Second is usually topless. During the set, they'll stop by and ask for a $1 and introduce themselves.
