the ultimate strip club list

a guy's guide to strip clubs

This club isn't really out in the middle of nowhere, but it is the only club for miles and miles. Almost didn't get in because I wasn't a member and didn't (of course) know any members. The bartender said she couldn't ask anybody if they'd be willing to sign me in so it looked for a minute like I'd just wasted however much time driving here.

Started thinking back to idiotic experience(s) at the strangely exclusive Bazz and Crue, but at least there I knew it was because the manager wasn't bright enough to simply ask if I was LE and turned away guaranteed $$. Maybe the club owners hail from NC, because their bizarre membership policy would have fit right in here. Wasn't sure what to make of it. Since the little window opened into the bar, the next thing to do was to make a new friend, fast. Problem was the closest guy was very, very into his conversation with a dancer and had his back turned to the window. Since the bartender again refused to help (turns out Britney was pretty cool as well as cute so it probably was just an odd, odd policy) I managed to get the dancers attention. Offered the gentleman a beer to let me in and it was settled. The club itself was smallish but nice, and reminded me of Night Shift in Baltimore with the diner-ish metal accents. The difference is there were a bunch of glow in the dark fish and sea creatures all over the walls. Ever really want to ask a question but not really want the answer? Yeah, it was kinda like that.

Crowd was about 10-15 customers and a small number of girls, all either in the back or chatting up customers. Stayed long enough to finish my beer across two dance sets. First was Cassie. Blonde and going through the motions but got a up a good amount of energy for $1 tips at the stage. That's one thing that made an impression on me early and often in NC, the girls by and large will put in a lot of effort at the tip rail for $1. Thought the same thing in Denver, some towns you'd be shelling out $10-20 for that kind of action. More so in other places than here (Chester's, TMC, etc), but now's a good a time to mention it as any. Glimmer was the second dancer I saw. A brunette. Very pretty face, slim but not not your typical dancer figure. She put on a reasonable show, though, and what ass she had was worked into a blur when I walked up to tip. Was almost enough to get a dance out of me. Almost, but I was still trying to get to Greensboro that night so I took off instead. The main club I was driving there for was (of course) closed that night, but that's a different story...not a place to go out of your way to see, but not a bad place for a drink and a show.

The atmosphere of this club is good, but there's not a whole lot more that I can say positive. To get in I had to get a membership I really didn't want for $10. The only reason I visited here was to find an ATF. Luckily she was there. She informed me that the club was very strict and not to expect too much mileage.

I did meet a Thai dancer that has a great personality. The only reason for the 5 rating.

Went to Tiki Cabaret for the first time, Last Tuesday. I bought a one year membership for $10 that gets me in for free before 8:00 PM and for $5 after 8:00 PM. Beer costs $3.50 a bottle. There were at least ten dancers and possibly more. Their is a small center stage where the ladies dance with seats aroound it and a modest amount of tables, bar space and VIP space. The ladies mingle after being on stage and seemingly like to sit and chat. I enjoyed the attention and soon realized that if I wanted a VIP dance, I would have to ask for one. All of the dancers I encountered were very, very low pressure.
I found this club enjoyable. I would place all of the dancers in the 4-7 category with not one bad looking and not one 10. They were all natural with enough variation in ethnicity and body types that I think there was a good selection. This club is topless and the no touch rule is in effect. I had five VIP dances, each one was well done, lasted exactly one song and at the end of the dance, each dancer sat and chatted a while after replacing her top. Each dancer did significannt grinding and was modestly enthusiastic but within limits describe. My favorite dance was from Kelly. I also had good dances from Laya, Gemini and Jasmine. All considered a good, low pressure night, with good looking women. I will go back again.

This club is tiny. They have very unreasonably priced drinks, and extremely unattractive girls. They are constantly pushing to sell you free passes (which defeats the purpose if they are trying to sell them), t-shirts, and dollar dances. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with giving girls money, if they are attractive. It is very dark, compact, and loud with the same music repeating itself over and over again all night long. The VIP room is tiny with 3 little booths in it. And last but not least to be really frank, the dancers, bartenders, managers and DJ's are all bitches! As if they are bothered by the fact that you are there. I did enjoy the company of one lady (though not very pretty) but because I didn't offer to get a dance she soon left, making the quck assumption that I had no money to spend. Such a waste of a trip all the was to High Point! I'd rather rent a porno.
