Fun, handsy Friday at Pandora

The club has two stages, a big one with a tipping rail and a little one with no rail. Dancers rotate through, dancing first half-heartedly at the little stage, and then with a bit more vigor at the big one. There are chairs placed in rows along two sides of the main stage and booths along the wall of a third. The lap-dance area is in the back, with booths lined up on the wall on the third side. At least one drink is included in the cover charge. They have the decency to refill at least my water as much as I want without charging me more.

There were about 15-20 dancers of various colors and shapes. Their stage dances vary in quality. As I'd expect anywhere, there are some dancers whose personalities I gel with and some I don't. This is a Washington club; all the money is in the private dances, so expect to get plied a lot for those.

I got two 3-for-100 dances: one with Miyoko, a curvy Asian, and another with Mimi, a latina. Both give good, intense dances, and both took the little guy out for some fun. I expect that they can be counted on for more if taken to the VIP rooms. I always have a good time with them in the LDA.
