My first visit to the lumberyard since the smoking ban. Nice to not reek of smoke when I came out of there, but somehow the place seemed less wholesome. Maybe because you could clearly see everyone else in there, I don't know. For the smokers, there is a side door for people to step out and smoke. One complaint is that the door to goutside and smoke is well lit and if you're back there with a dancer, well, its not always pretty. There's a reason these clubs are dark. Another complaint was the girl taking cover charges and demanding tips. Also if you wanted dollar bills, well thats another tip.

On to the show - lots of dancers as usual. Club seemed to be pretty slow, our group didn't have a problem finding a table. As usual girls from the crowd were pulled up on stage so the strippers could get them naked and go down on them - always my favorite part of the lumberyard experience. Lap dances aren't bad, extras are definitely hard to come by. Overall, a decent experience, I'm sure I will be back.
