Was in Anchorage for the first...

Was in Anchorage for the first time, and decided to check out what this town had to offer for clubs, in comparison to my normal L.A / O.C. haunts. Found only one club listed in the Yellow pages (Gt. Alaskan Bush Co), but then thought of checking out tuscl.com. Although my initial plan was to check out both Crazy Horse and GAB Co., especially since neither apparently has a cover charge, ended up spending all my time at the Crazy Horse. Mindful of the previous reviewer's unhappiness with the Texas Hold-em nights, I noted that the marquee stated that that was only on Sunday thru Wednesday evenings. I got there shortly after they opened at 4 PM on Friday afternoon. Completly dead. I was the only person in the club, except for a waiter, and some elderly lady that appeared to be (and apparently was) the owner. Good size bar (full alcohol) and a good size square stage. Lots of ladder back chairs (with soft seat), mainly arranged by fours at tiny rectangular wood tables on 2 sides of the stage, plus many more such sets in the room, including a portion that was one step up. There was also an area that displayed a neon "VIP Lounge" sign. Decided to hang around to see what was going to happen. (Waiter was prompt in coming over to where I had sat down on the far side of the stage to see what I wanted to drink, but then just busied himself behind the bar or chatting with the owner after bringing me my beer). It was close to 4:45 when the first girl showed up. She looked promising in her street clothes, and it wasn't long before she came out in her costume and sat down to talk. No DJ yet, background music was playing; still the only customer. After a little chit chat, she immediatly launched into the "how about a dance?" routine. Agreed to a test lap dance for $20, for which we went to a different table that offered a little shielding from view. Top came off before dance even started, and the D size natural boobs looked very inviting. Soon learned that I was not allowed to touch her anywhere, but that she could brush up against me. She then suggested the VIP, which would be $60 per song, and would be "much more comfortable". She did state that the songs were full length, and not cut, so decided to see what would develop. The VIP section offers no additional privacy; it simply has a number of couches in an area. Was quite disappointed in that the "no touching" rule was still being applied, perhaps a little more loosely, but her body contact was quite generous. Still, I decided to cut my losses. This, by the way, was Scarlett, who hails from Panama, via Miami. The DJ had appeared in the mean time, and started playing some songs. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the music sound level was at a normal (reasonable) level, and that I could actually understand him when he announced dancers. Scarlett said that she would start dancing when she felt like it. I think there were two additional customers at that point. She did do a 2 song dance shortly after, which was actually quite good. She had told me earlier that there was no dancer / customer interaction allowed at edge of stage (there is no rail), other than customer being allowed to put $ bills into her gartewr. As expected, she held to these rules. Lighting is good, and stage height just right for good viewing when seated. The third side of stage either had no table "sets", or they were farther apart, allowing customers to step up to the stage for tipping.

A second dancer showed up at maybe 5:15. I joked around a bit with her before she continued to the dressing room. She was back pretty soon, and sat and talked with me. I told her that I was disappointed with the dance from Scarlett, and she (of course) told me that she was more liberal. Tina is from Taiwan and has danced at this club for 14 years!! She said that she's 32, and supposedly dances there 7 days a week, except when she takes time off to visit her mother in Thailand, or sister in Vegas. Her body looked well preserved (she even displayed one of her boobs to prove it). Agreed to a $20 test dance. Was pleasantly surprised at the difference, and was told that she would even be more liberal if I tipped well. That I did, and she did not disappoint.

By the time I left a little after 8, there were 2 or 3 additional dancers, all of which were at least a 6 (due to silicone boobs), and generally a 7 or 8, in my rating system. I had told Tina that I was happy with the set up, and could see no reason to go to the VIP area with her, and she was satisfied with that. So stayed there until it was time for me to go back to my hotel to check out to go for my red eye flight home. It was interesting for me to learn that the dancer keeps all her earnings, but must pay the club $125 per night. That certainly eliminates the distraction of the bouncer coming around for counts at every dance. I also learned that the dancing continues on the nights they have poker, but that the dancer's income is not that good on those nights.

I would definitly go back if I was ever again in the area, which is pretty unlikely.
