Glass half empty?

I stopped by here before heading to a Celtics game. The parking is limited, we parked at a garage near by for $25 (early special whatever that means). We walked in, no cover in the daytime. Told my friend no hats, but the first guy we say had a beanie on. But no big deal, no cover. This place was very cramped and a funky oder that i could not explain. I know this place is close to Chinatown but it wasn't bad food smell, more musty like dirty ass lol. We both ordered Heinekens from the bartender. She smiled and was tentative. The stage was behind the bar. The girls had to walk down what looked like a long staircase to the stage. I'm not sure how permit wise is this safe. I was instructed to throw my tips to the girl. Some landed on the bartender's station. I later found out, they can't get money's that fall there. I was not in the mood to pitch balls of $1s so i waited for a few girls come by. The ones that did, definitely was average. One told me about the tipping rule. Dances were $25, $10 to the house, she kept $15. I had to prepay for dances. Since she was close to my type (curve, long hair, and bright smile) we did two songs. The area for dancing is right next to the bar with a small barrier. I was right next to my friend who was getting a dance too. We are both good buds but i dont need to see him get a dance and I'm sure he doesn't want to see me either. We sat around for another beer, a few more ladies came by. Not really my type many seemed high or drunk or combination of sorts. Extras was offered but was not interested. Not sure if we will be back. If we do, might go check out next door instead.
