Holding on, but…

This is still my favorite, but trends are continuing in dayshift that is hurting value (this is dayshift only report).

Basic layout the same; with bar serving as main social area. However, an increasing number of dancers are getting together in either the 20$ reserved table at far right of the club, or the tables in front of them, and it’s taking a number of dancers each shift away from circulation; sadly, some of these are among the better, younger dancers. Some seem open to simply letting guys buy lots of drinks and tip; some will go to VIP with the alpha dog in the group. At least during day shift, the what was once steady stream of new, attractive girls has slowed (don’t know if new COVID wave playing a role; are seeing some masks after several months of nothing). I’ve found that often, to get attention you need to tip when dancer is on stage; that’s usually successful in getting them to drop by.

Most dances continue to be $10; dances at bar and low tables tend to be tamer than those at booths on the side of the bar with the entrance. Those suggesting moving dances to these booths will usually give better dances; those in other spots can be just a step higher than air.
