Bandaid evening

So — my last night in Phoenix (this trip) and wanted to try Bandaids. When I arrived, the doorman/bouncer patted me down and then said that there wasn’t a cover (did mention and point to the tip jar, however). Entered a long narrow room with a bar on the right, mirrors on the opposite wall and then two very small stages with pokes upon which no one was dancing. The main stage with a pole is in the adjacent room where there are a number of low chairs. There were 10-12 women there (more dancers than patrons). White, Hispanic and Black. The bathroom is acceptable (no troll).

Most of the guys were in the room with the bar watching Monday Night Football. Some were chatting with dancers but most were not. Several of the dancers were sitting by themselves or in pairs chatting or on their phones.

I got a Corona with lime $4 and went into the main stage room. A taller augmented blonde was in the stage sort of going through the motions (she told me her name but I can’t remember it). I tipped her a couple of bucks (there was literally no one else tipping) and she did little other than show her enhanced breasts. The next up was a Latina named Perla. She, too, was augmented but nicely done. I tipped her a couple of bucks and after her “set” (where she, too, just showed her boobs) she came and sat in my lap. She told me that the dances on the floor were $10 and in the back area was $20. These are done behind a partition in booths with dividers.
