I was here today, early in...

I was here today, early in the morning (got there around 2am, stayed until 4am). The parking lot of this huge place was almost completely full, and I found a spot way in the back. As expected from the full lot, the place was packed. I am guessing there were 8 dancers for every 10 patrons, which may have accounted for some of the negatives, in addition to my going at night (the last time I was here was just a bit over a year ago, and I went that time on a Friday afternoon and had a very good experience).

The place was teeming with dancers wanting to dance for you. Usually they were not super-aggressive, but any eye contact would quickly bring a dancer to you. I talked to two ladies who were trying to take me to the champagne room (you must buy a bottle of champagne there and the fee goes to the house--the cheapest bottle is Veuve Cliquot yellow label and it goes for $285), and they said if I went they would charge between them what normally only one of them would charge. They were nice, but not to my taste. I was glad they took me on a tour of the champagne room, because I did see that it was very nice and quiet up there. The booths were a bit more private than the main "private" dance room on the first floor, where everyone gets their dances on couches that are out in the open. I eventually got dances from 4 different dancers in the private room, and they were quoted $25-$30 per dance. Two of the dancers flashed the kitty almost every dance, and two never did. All dancers gave a lot of good grinding, some of which was too rough and some of which was very nice. And there was plenty of two-way hands on action, usually with at least some stick-shifting, but the kitty was off limits for touching for all of these 4, although I did see one dancer dancing for someone across from me who encouraged her dancee to rub her kitty through the outside of her g-string while she was sitting in his lap with her back to him (and thus his roaming hands were visible to anyone in the room).

I also allowed myself to get grabbed by a dancer who I realized a bit too late was way too agressive. We got about halfway through her dance and I got up and told her I had enough, paid her $20 (her quoted fee was less), and left. I quickly discovered that during the dance she had pick-pocketed the wad of $2 bills someone had given me for change (they have the largest supply of $2 bills in the club I have ever seen--apparently to encourage guys to tip more than the usual $1 on stage, etc). I realized she had also tried to pull my wallet. The dance she started was way too aggressive with way too hard grinding--in some cases painful--and she started almost immediately with ludicrous dirty talk in my ear, "fuck my pussy", that really turned me off (now, if another dancer had worked me up gently over a period of a few songs and built up to that phrase, I might well have found it a turn on, but from her at that early moment, I found it disgusting and ridiculous).

I had another cute asian dancer talk me into a $20 dance in the open floor at a table. Only minimal one-way contact (that was explained and expected prior to her starting). She said that she thought there were so many dancers there because rents were coming due, as well as the need to make money for Xmas shopping, and she didn't like the overall atmosphere which was pushy and she said resembled "a meat market". I also wasn't too keen on the atmosphere, and generally agreed with her.

It was still fun going to the club, because, as has been noted in other posts, it is unusual in many ways, as is its sister club in Columbia (which I still haven't been to).
