Call ahead

I have learned my lesson and now call ahead to see if my favorites are working. I called on Thursday evening and the managers were kind enough to indeed let me know that the dancer I was looking for was there and working.

I showed up a little later that night and after paying the entrance fee, I settled in and made small talk with a couple of the dancers who stopped by. After a little bit of time and sampling some dances from a couple of newer dancers I hadn't seen before, I finally retreated to the back with the girl who I had come to see. It was as usual an enjoyable time, and I will continue to drop by once in a while to see her.

I found it encouraging that management would answer the phone and let me know if a certain dancer is working. The next step might be posting dancers schedules online somewhere like a website or something. (hint... hint)
