Rosy Saturday Night at Lust

I arrived at Lust around 6:30 p.m., shortly before the shift change. This was my second time, having visited the previous month. At the front you ring a bell, the bouncer checks your ID and takes a $10 cover, and the buzzes you in. No metal detector, pat-down, etc. When entering, there are two stages, one to your left (the main stage, I think) and one to your right. There is a bar in front, where most of the customers were situated at that time. It was clean, and the music was loud but not obnoxious. The interior was dark, but the stages were well-lit.

I ordered a beer and looked around - there was no one dancing when I first arrived, but some girls were talking to customers - who seemed to be regulars - at the bar. One girl began dancing on the stage to the right, but no one seemed to pay much attention. Luckily, when the evening shift changed, things began to pick up. There appeared to be about fifteen dancers in the club, with about the same number of patrons. Two dancers started dancing on each stage. A few customers migrated to the stages and began tipping (including me), but not many. Some of the girls stripped fully nude and got into the dancing, but most just partially stripped. Some just sat on the edge and talked to their regulars. That said, I didn't see any dancer fail to reward a patron that tipped freely.

Things got better as the night went on. Of the 15 or so girls there, I would say 5 or so were chubby/plain, 7 or 8 were cute with decent bodies, and three were real spinners. The dancers were a pretty equal ratio of black and white. One of the spinners, Pixie ("like the pixie stick"), put on a great show and was super friendly. After a while I went back to the bar, where I met Rose, a 22-year old with a few tattoos. I bought her a drink ($15 for hers, $7 for my Heineken) and we talked for a while. She was sweet and was one of the spinners, so - after discussing her rules we went to the back rooms (on the left as you walk in) for a dance.
