Zero dancers at Ciro

Albany, NY. Capital of New York State. Saturday night. Area probably ain't the greatest but it's sort of the old part of town some bars and restaurants this way. It's got it's own little lot. Big black dude out there watching the cars, ID check by him and pat down. He said there would be a $10 cover inside but they didn't charge me that. I got a soda water and got $15 back. So I don't know if that was $5 soda water or $5 cover and free soda water but I didn't want to remind anybody of a $10 cover so I kept it moving.

Anyway inside is a small place, dead ahead is the bar and to your right is the stage in built into a elevated inlet. To the left is a small cubicle dance area I guess that's VIP. The dance prices were super affordable on the menu. I think it was for floor dances $6 a song and 5 for $20. And then vip was $30 for 15 minutes and $60 for 30 minutes. That is crazy cheap. There is also a sign that there is no touching.

Customers were two middle age black dudes, one younger black dude and one older white guy. Slow. Bartenders, cute brunette looked like itailian chick and a more heftier white chick.
