Stopped in for the afternoon shift....

Stopped in for the afternoon shift. All I can say is that the weekday crew is a definite step up from the Sunday crew. There were a couple of real 9s working. Riley is this incredibly cute self-professed Irish Blond that will just melt your heart (and a few other things too)

There was only one girl that just didn't make it. A dancer should not be scary looking, she really shouldn't. There was one girl who was about 5'10" and probably about 195. She looked like she could play linebacker for the Eagles. It just wasn't fair to her today. The girls on shift really could dance and they worked the poles for all they were worth. At one point, Jamie had her feet up on the bar, bending over backward to hold onto the pole and just slid all the way down to the stage with her feet still up on the bar and her back arched. That is talent. This poor girl was trying to compete with talent like that by just standing up on stage and shifting from one foot to the other. Needless to say that in the two hours I was there she didn't have any customers. Her whole sales pitch was "Look what I have to play with!" while jiggling the girls. Give me a break.

Interesting detail on the arrangements in the back. They now have two types of VIP. The basic VIP is $100/15 minutes. That is for the little cubby back by the entrance to the dancer's dressing room. It's like grand central back there. They now have a new option; a "Draped VIP". Basically they took one of the big couches in the back of the front room and hung brown drapes all around it with little velcro tabs to keep them shut. Very nice. Reasonably private. Not Playhouse private, but pretty good. The going rate for this area is $120/15 minutes. It's worth the upgrade.
