St. James is really hit or miss. Sometimes, especially late weekday afternoons or Wednesday or Thursday evenings in particular, the talent level can rise to that of the old Treasures and it can be really fun. At other times, the best looking girls will disappear after their stage dances to the netherworlds of VIP, and the VIPers can remind us poor schmucks who have only a few hundred dollars to spend that we are indeed schmucks as they blast out 100 one dollar bills to shower upon the dancers from a cannon in their VIP perch. At still other times, the dancers are few and far between, when combined with the stand-off vibe of most of the dancers, means again us schmucks don't get much attention.

This particular afternoon, there just were not many 7+ girls around and those that were disappeared quickly- I'd get glimpses of them as they walked briskly out of their lounge, each with a seeming purpose of getting upstairs or back to their regulars as quickly as possible. I don't usually walk out of St. James without getting at least a few dances, but this time I did, and traveled to Michael's, where the 7+'s were abundant and friendly, even if half didn't speak english.
