C-Mowes is open for business as...

C-Mowes is open for business as of July 20. The new building is long and rectangular and the inside is one big room, very much like Miss Kittys. There's a door facing the parking lot, but the main entrance is in the middle of the long side facing the street -- there's no sign. Inside is all done in black and white, and it was easy to see but not bright. The lights were all blue (not UV/blacklights). There is a long bar along the wall across from the door, reaching almost end to end. There's a circular stage at each end of the building. In the middle is a pool table and a number of tables for seating. The men's room is very small, with just one urinal and one stall -- considering that at one point on opening night there were at least 50 guys inside, the bathroom could be a problem.

Whip and I were the first one to use the private area. The private room is not good. It is a small room divided into two decently sized areas. On each side is an L-shaped wooden bench that sits in the corner. The private area looks out onto the main room, and there is no door, curtain, or drape to block the view. Guys standing at the end of the bar can see right in, as can anyone leaving by the side door (or coming in that way) The security guard monitoring that door was also able to oversee the private dance area. The seats are very uncomfortable. The rooms would be fine for a little hand action, but very uncomfortable for any serious fun -- and it is impossible to be discreet. Cost for the room is $10 to the house, but the girls weren't sure if that was for two songs or what the deal was. Also they didn't have any set prices for action back there. It was the first night and no one seemed to know the rules (this included what was allowed on stage, how many dances to do, etc...). Eventually, Cindy went around and told the girls that they were to dance two songs on one stage, then move to the other stage and do two songs. No one collected for the jukebox, so I hope that the management takes care of that. Girls played their own songs.

The place was jumping, mostly with friends of the owners, or friends of the dancers. There were LOTS of girls there who weren't working, so it was hard to judge the ratio of guys to dancers. Things will shake down eventually I'm sure. There were at least 50 guys there at the high point of about 11:00, and 11 dancers (I asked). Whip (now going by Kimberly), Passion, Sinful, and Bobbie from Chameleon were there, as were a bunch of girls I recognized from other clubs and many I didn't. They also had some SMOKING hot waitresses and bartenders. One stunning girl (who I'm told was the owner's son's girlfriend) was a perfect 10 in my book.
