 After a very long fight
with the city, this club has finally
won their appeal and opened
officially in 2001. The city was still trying to get their last punch in
by fining the club for having too many lines on their sign (see right).
What a bunch of crock. Doesn't the city have anything better to do?
The owners took off a few lines from their sign to comply with the silly
city ordinance.
The good news is, this club is owned by 2 super dedicated ex-customers
who really know what they like. They're not about to let the city
get them down. The club features a mall-like large parking lot which you
enter on the right side and exit on the left side. Pay your $10 cover at
the entrance to the doorman who will also scan you quickly with a metal
detector.
 As you enter, the lap area and VIP
room is to your right, the stage is against the front wall on your left,
the DJ booth, bar and restrooms are on the far side of the room on the
left past the stage. The stage is designed exactly like a larger version
of the Tropical Lei stage with a
counter-type railing surrounding the stage with no front covering,
allowing the dancer to get very interactive, above and below the counter.
The first thing I noticed was how laid back this club is. No waitress
came running over to sell me drinks. Moreover, the DJ would talk and joke
with the dancers on stage over the mic, and one of the dancers did
head-stands on the counter. What all this adds up to is a very friendly
environment, the way Mom & Pop strip clubs used to be in the good 'ole
days, before the chains and lap factories.
The owner admitted to me that they were big fans of
TJ's and so they decided to copy their $10
lap dance pricing structure (dancer keeps all). Again, for a nude club,
this is very unusual these days. The dancer doesn't have to worry about
the floater miscounting or crawling down her throat. To enter the VIP room
requires a purchase of 5 minimum dances at $75 (dancer keeps $50) and is
topless. Of course, for the regular $10 dances, the dancer keeps her
bikini on and don't expect crazy mileage that you get for $40 per song at
some other clubs. What you do get is a good grind at a good price.
As far as dancers, I saw a really big mix of different types and races,
from small to big, and homely to beautiful. The owners believe in the free
market system and survival of the fittest. For the guy that just wants to
watch super models on stage for eye candy, this is not the place to go.
For the guy that wants to see a variety, big booties, as well as thin and
tall, you'll get your wish.
For dancers who might want to work here, the dressing room is very
large, has lockers, a microwave, a shower, and basically sounded like the
best dressing room since Las Vegas. The only problem is, it's so nice,
some girls won't come out.
Summary:
All in all, this place is a customer's paradise. Good prices, happy
dancers with good attitudes, and a fun environment that should satisfy any
nude club enthusiast.
