The difference is like, uh, night and day.

Arrived around 5:30 on a Thursday. Parking lot full, including 3 cop cars blocking the main way in, so I had to drive down the wrong lane and pull in to a spot by turning into it 270*. No apparent reason for the police action, except they were taking their sweet time doing whatever the fuck cops do when they want to annoy strippers/strip clubs. Still no cover at 5:30, but it's SRO while I wait for a table to open. As always one stage in the middle, two song sets. Satellite stage unoccupied at this time, but a rotation would soon start that dancers use both stages and thus, are out of circulation for 4 songs instead of just two. Minimal stage tipping, lots of dancers hanging at tables either with PLs or just themselves (the Cubans, of course!) , many others wandering the aisles looking for fresh meat. Bar to the right is filled, but don't hang in front of Rudy's Grill or he'll get pissed at you. Non-alcoholic drinks are $4, plus tip.

Dancer quality varies, some real gems of all different races and sizes, but also quite a few zircons in the bunch. I saw a gorgeous Latina I hadn't seen before, but she was occupied with a PL for awhile. Another new girl, a really attractive slender black dancer with natural D's, was occupied by a table of PL's, too. Dammit! I did see some regulars, and when I finally got a table near the bar the action started up. No crazy mileage allowed on the floor, but management has loosed up a bit from the restrictions that had in a place for awhile. $10 floor dances, $30 in VIP. VIP was busy while I was there, took a variety of girls with a variety of results (as always, YMWV). The amazing thing this Thursday was how dramatically the dancer quality dropped after 7 PM. Very few choice targets IMO from which to select. I waited a while longer, hoping to see some higher tier talent amble in for their night shift, but nothing piqued my interest so I rolled to finish off the night at Bourbon Street.
