Raising prices to pay for dumb new lighting, I guess

This is a pretty small club. After paying the cover, you walk past a partition into the main section. The bar is on your left, seating to your right, and stage at the back right. They recently "upgraded" the stage lighting. If you like to see girls bathed in harsh, overhead, bright-green lighting which exaggerates every imperfection on their skin, then, boy, is this the place for you.

 

Mind the step about halfway back towards the stage; you'll probably trip over it at some point. The private dance area is in the back to the left. Well, maybe not so private. Lap dances are on one long, continuous couch. There are also curtained-off VIP booths if you want to shell out some real cash.

 

Which brings me to the prices. Ownership is seriously trying to squeeze out more money from the place. Maybe to pay for that stupid new lighting. Dances are up to a minimum of $50/song from $40. They charge for dollar bills now, too; you give them a twenty, they give you 18 ones, which is bullshit. I've also heard that the fees they charge dancers for VIP rooms go way up after 2am, so keep that in mind if you're planning some late-night fun. Cover is still $20. They say you can waive that if you come in wearing Seattle sports team gear on game days, though I've never tried that. Drink prices are highway robbery, but I expect that at a strip club. If you wanna get drunk, just go to the dive bar next door.
