Semi annual pilgrimage

After staying away from Centerfolds for several months, I decided to visit last night and check out the scene. After paying the 20$ entry fee, I was seated by the host near the front stage. The first floor was fairly empty when I arrived (around 10:30PM), but was hopping by 11. Although I recognized many of the dancers from my previous visits, there were several pretty new faces that I hadn't seen before, and also some real dogs. My favorite stage dancers of the night were a young, lithley Asian with aggressive pole dancing skills, and an enthusiastic pony tailed Margaery Tyrell doppleganger. Relative to previous visits, the energy seemed higher and the hustle factor more muted. I was approached twice last night. Both times, the dancers were quite mercenary about their intentions to find someone willing to take them to the champagne room (going rate of around 250/half hour + an extremely overpriced bottle of champagne). If I lived closer to Providence, I don't think I'd ever be inclined to visit Centerfolds, but given that it's the only game in town, it'll make do.
