Strip Club Reports

[Justguessing]

Most noticeable in recent years is the vanishing of the day girls in strip clubs. I went by Jaguars, formerly Harem House, yesterday afternoon and there was not a single car in the parking lot. I headed over to PT's. When I went inside the stage was empty. Two strippers appeared to be sitting at tables and taking a nap. After about 30 minutes I saw two other girls walking out the door. They had apparently decided to leave early for the day. Most other clubs in town are about the same. Only Brad's has a normal dayshift with several girls doing a stage rotation at all times. Instead of strip clubs, the other clubs are now mostly empty stage clubs or have ended their dayshift completely.

In an era long ago, ok the 90's, I had just moved to west side near Eagle Creek and had several clubs 5-10 minutes away instead of the 20 min to The Roost (Dancers location). I spent time exploring the afternoon shifts at Rio, Babes West and Gold Club. Even made some day visits to Brass Flamingo if work trips around city ended the day early near that club.

Miss those days.

Stopped in at the BF on a Monday early afternoon. Not a ton of dancers but the ones working were all pretty nice looking. I got a private dance from.

"Molly" who I've had dances with once before. I intended only one dance but the first was so nice I did two more. Really a nice experience. Glad Brad's still provides a good dancing experience earlier in the day.

I have heard Dancers may start their day shift again.

New here, new to Indy / Indiana. Found the forum after a deep dive on local clubs.

Checked out a few based on recommendations from a local dude I met. Went to Brad's on a busy night and was pretty disappointed in the music, had kind of a honky tonk vibe, more classic rock and country than I was anticipating. But the girls at Brad were beautiful! And there was a friendly crowd. Had a couple so-so dances and ok conversation. Liked The Pony's vibe a little more. It struck me as a little more classy / less sports bar like, but it was a slow night and the girls were preoccupied with regulars. The girls at PTs were very talkative and great on the pole, but the drinks were terrible and the club layout doesn't make any sense. I didn't stick around for a dance, not sure if I was missing out. Does this line up with anyone's experience?

Anyway. I have a few buddies coming to town in a couple weeks and I kinda want to impress. It seems here that the top picks are Brad's, Rio and The Pony. It also sounds like Dancers is classy, but a little boring and expensive. Where should I go for the best mix of music (more club classics. Less hard rock), better drinks (beer & cocktails), and top shelf dances?

Any thoughts on Rio would also be helpful too. Haven't been there yet. But it sounds fun according to some posts here, even if the club isn't the nicest. True to anyone else's experience?

The club layout for PTs makes sense if you know the original plan was to have half the club with female strippers and the other half with male strippers. The partition down the middle was put in for that reason. It did not work out. Now the back half of the club is seldom used except on busy weekend nights.

As for Rio it is worth a weekend night trip. There are enough girls you can probably find your type. The Pony is close so you can hop over there if you don't see someone to your liking.

I'll be rolling through Indy in January and wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations for clubs that have private rooms for lapdances (noticing sadly these are few and far between anymore) where there might be extra's to be had. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and stay safe out there.

EDIT: I visited Club Rio early this year and someone told me about a girl that has a Snooki from Jersey Shore look that I wasn't able to see. Not sure if she is still there

I made a trip to Jaguars last night. There was really only one cute girl there and when I did a lap dance with her found she had bad personal hygiene. I would not repeat with her. In the past I had more regulars here than any other club but have not had one for two years now. The club has a lot of customers now who spend little money. That is not conducive to attracting high quality girls. Jiggles is even worse. Three clubs on Pendleton Pike is now one too many.

Will be stopping through for the holidays and love extra fun. However I stopped through Indy twice last year and notice extra fun was not as plentiful as it's once was. Looking for ITC fun cause will be traveling with company. Appreciate any tips? I use to take a trip.

To "Brazil" for a sure thing but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

Looking for suggestions as to where to take my wife for some fun. We went to Brad Flamingo last Friday and she got a dance in the VIP from a hot AA lady, lots of making out, titty play between both and little touching of the pussy. She had a blast and even said that she found out she is into women. So with that said I am looking for a place that might even go a little further in the back ie: some pussy fingering, maybe a little pussy eating etc. Also what are the standard rates for dances etc at clubs now, has been a few years since I have been to one.

Well, its been a few years since I ventured up to kokomo. Things have not gotten better. There might have been 8 dancers total and 2 were decent. They disappear in the back right after their dances are over. There's a black girl there that doesn't lap dance. She sits on your lap and that's it. There used to be some other places in Kokomo. Anyone know if they are any better?

Used to be a few clubs in kokomo, but not anymore. Hugger is the only club left in kokomo now.

Visited the Brass Flamingo on a Monday just as it was opening at noon. No surprise it was pretty dead. There was one gorgeous girl dancing but I couldn't stay long enough to get a dance as she was sequestered with a regular. The reason for my report is that it appears Brad's is back to giving better mileage for the dollar tips at the stage. Both times I tipped a couple bucks I was rewarded with a lot of skin contact and the face between the boobs. This was standard service for years but Covid changed the game to 'no contact tipping' for a while. Let's hope this is a trend in the right direction.

I'm a Gen Z cusper and you're onto something. I normally travel quite a bit for my job and tbh, I look at a club's social media presence as my indicator on whether I want to be there on not if I'm in a brand new area. Gen Z is all about things being simple and transparency, if an experience is too "come check us out and see," they'd rather not know. If you've never been to the Cincinnati / Dayton area look up Diamond's Cabaret on socials. They do a Great job of branding / making the experience easy (literally all the girls that dance there have "Diamond" or "Diamond Doll" on all their socials, they're all pretty young too so they're on OF as well doing both). There's plenty of room for innovation but it won't be until a millennial / gen z person owns their own club where we'll start to see things like this.

Clubs and social media / online presence are an interesting mix.

On the one hand, a club having a presence on social media is vital, as is using it the right way. A lot of clubs have social accounts but never use them, or use them in a generic way that doesn't help anything.

While you can't tell everything about a club from its online presence, the branding and pictures of the club can go a long way to separate nice clubs from dives. One of the things Polekatz in Chicago does really well is promote its theme nights on social. Of course, they have to do a good job with the visuals in the club, and the girls have to buy in as well with their outfits, to make those nights work. But they do all the right things and their ads, pics and video are great, as are their events.

The issue with clubs and social media, however, is there's still a taboo surrounding clubs. Clubs have to see value in maintaining a social media presence despite normal metrics not showing the value. A lot of customers aren't going to like / follow club social pages because of the taboo; that doesn't mean they're not looking at them, though. Clubs also have to be careful not to get any customers in their pics or vids, or if they do, they need to make sure the customers are OK with being shown. There are still a lot of guys who don't want to be seen out at a club. That doesn't even touch on how most social sites don't allow nudity.

For the dancers, it's a slippery slope. Yes, a lot of dancers have separate social accounts for their dance work, maybe tied to an OF or a Venmo link or whatever. But it's still pretty easy to track down a dancer's real identity from her socials, even if they're separate, which can bring up issues if the girl has a semi-serious job or a conservative family / SO in her non-dancer life. Dancers might not like that. A lot of girls aren't smart enough to keep their accounts straight, either.

A couple Wisconsin clubs regularly post which dancers are working that day on Facebook. On the one hand, if you have a favorite, it's nice to know if they're in or not. On the other, it also probably loses them some business, as seeing a day when no favorites are in might mean a regular doesn't go. Also, let's not forget that a lot of mongers are creepy, so those guys knowing when certain dancers are or aren't in could be a negative to some dancers.

It's an interesting balance. Still, change is happening. Slowly. It'll have to for clubs to survive. But they're not just going to roll over and die. Granted, it'll happen faster at the upscale clubs, and I don't know if any of Indy's clubs qualify as upscale compared to some of the high-end clubs in Chicago and Detroit. But it's still an interesting discussion.
