CL's

This club is starting to grow on me, after a handful of eye-rolls from dancers at Blush when I didn't want to take them back/upstairs... if you're offended by a (completely polite) "no" maybe don't bother asking? I digress...

There's a down-to-earth quality to CL's that I like, it's got a certain amount of the typical quasi-upscale vibe, but still kind of feels like a neighborhood place full of more or less regular folks. The stage behind the bar takes a little getting used to, with on-stage dancer interaction limited to balling up and throwing bills... but it's a good spot to strike up a conversation with an off-stage girl. The center stage has more of the normal tipping and conversation thing happening, though with not nearly enough seating... and when it gets busy a third bigger stage w/ bar opens up. It's fun over the course of a couple hours trying out all three spots.

My LD experience here is limited. The area is private enough, and touching was certainly encouraged. I haven't stayed back there very long.
