back to full swing, no more using expired coupons

Was in the area for an event and decided to check it out, first time long time. There used to be a bunch of promoters passing out coupons and the staff accepted expired coupons before covid but now they actually check expiration dates. The guy in front of me had a pre-covid coupon that they rejected. Cover was $22 and does not include a drink. 1 main stage, no side stages.

There were a lot of tourist groups, including several with female guests wearing celebratory sashes. Even without people passing out coupons, the bright giant sign outside does the job. Seats seemed well over halfway full throughout the hour I was there.

There were ~15 girls on the floor + whoever is in the back. ~3-4 AA, couple Latinas, rest white. Half were sitting back in the outer circle of couches that's roped off to customers. Others circled the seats area quickly "wanna dance?"-style, usually not right off the bat but within a few exchanges. Pretty much hi, name, what brings you in, comment based on that, then wanna dance. Prices were 40, 50, 60 with no 3 for 100 offers. One said 40 for no touching & 50 for touching or something like that. There's an occasional 3 for 60 deal but the songs are cut extra short for those.
