Final Stop of the Tour

Oregon Strip Club Tour, Sixth and Final Stop

From Salem we drove over the mountains to Bend, where my buddy has a rental property. This review actually takes place over two nights. Saturday, we showed up at Stars around 12:30 am, and it was packed. What was unusual, though, was just how many civilian women were there, including one massive bachelorette party. There were perhaps 15-20 dancers, with a mainstage and two side stages. The dancers ranged from young and pretty to somewhat seasoned, but it was definitely a party vibe, and everyone was having a good time. Such a good time, in fact, that it was impossible to find anyone to get a dance from. A parking lot fight closed things down early, so we left, intending to return the next night.

And return we did, accompanied by our third musketeer, who had just come into town, after an afternoon of innertubing and edibles. We’d had a few by the time we got there, and then we had a few more. I found a tall blonde to take in the VIP, but it was all downhill from there. Now, this isn’t her fault. Stars is owned by the same folks who own Stars in Salem, but the VIP experience could not be more different. The back room has little booths and a shower stage, but dances are $45 each (seriously, whoever heard of a $45 lapdance?), or three for $120, a hefty increase from Salem (Bend is a nicer town, for sure).
