Strip Club Reports

I have it on good authority biz is booming north on US31 about 100 kilometers.

If that's indeed the case, then why is the Kokomo HH message board here so dead?

Thing is, it's the being rubbed upon thing that's the best part.

I can't bring myself to pay for anything online. Yeah, it's *a little* more personal, but why bother when there's so much porn for free? Why should I make masturbating more expensive?

I'll spend for the in-person experience, though. It's one thing to see great tits. It's another thing to get to put your hands on them, and it's another thing altogether if she's willing to put other people's body parts between them.

I totally agree, but it's sadly all about what they can get others to pay for and I can't blame them.

Went to Brad's on Saturday night 9-11 p based on reports here but didn't find much exciting. Then headed over to Dancer's near the airport. The club is much nicer than BBF with much more space on stage, a better bar, better waitstaff service, and most importantly more and better looking girls! Got a few dances in the back, but was shocked by sticker price $40/ song. They were OK, but not worth it. I agree with the sentiment of other posts in this thread that the industry is suffering for many reasons and not just free internet porn. I remember days where the dancers actually danced on stage in a seductive way.

I did the same route last Wednesday night. Brads around 945. Not very crowded but a good amount of dancers. Ran into three that post on instagram frequently and first time seeing in person. Grabbed a dance with the a blonde one and it was pretty disappointing couple of dances. Not quite air dances only but nothing like the last few I have had if you follow my reviews. I debated on trying to hit up the other two but decided to cut my loses and head to dancers. Arrived at 11:15 and dead. I maybe made customer 8. At one point 5 dancers were sitting with one guy and he was chatting the waitress and eating. Tipped up a dancer named Kira on stage and made small talk compliments and figure she has to stop by right? Only guy to tip her! No, she finishes and heads straight to the little side room and hides with her phone. WTF. Where is the common sense, business savvy, hustle. Well I am about to pull the plug and I hear the name of the next dancer. Aries. Very pretty, great body art and personality, you can see her all over there site / instagram. Ended up doing 3 for 100, crazy but what the hell. Good dances but as everyone else has stated I myself may start backing off or detouring my visits so I hit us 31! LOL.

Got to do the club thing in Indy for the first time in about five years. Not a ton to report, but some basics:

Started at Brad's Saturday night around 1 am Place was packed, but I'm not sure why, because the talent was not much to write home about. I only get to Indy once every few years, but Brad's seems to have gotten slowly less worth it each time, especially compared to the talent in Chicago or the service in Detroit. The girl I saw with the best body on stage had nice lingerie, but from the neck up, the face and hair didn't do it for me. The one girl I saw that had the cutest face came out of the Brass Room about 15 minutes into my visit, but then just went and sat with some regulars it looked like she knew and I knew I wasn't going to pry her away. I gave up after about a half an hour. Probably about 20-25 girls, ranging from 4-7, median around 5 and a half.

Cut bait and went to Rio. First time there, as I did not have good luck at Dancers the last time I was Indy. Far less talent, but the high end was higher than Brad's IMO. Girl caught my eye at the door who was pretty much the full package. Talked a good game, and seemed to entertain ideas beyond just dances at first, but something seemed to turn in her mind as the night came close to the end and we couldn't work anything out. She says she's danced at a lot of clubs in a lot of places, but just started at Rio. She'll do well. I'd say eight girls, ranging from 5-9, median around 6.

Went back to Brad's on Sunday afternoon as I only had a little time before I had to hit the road. Talent was better for Sunday day than it was for Saturday night. Hit it off really well with a sweetheart curvy blonde daytime regulars will know. Great conversationalist. Did a few dances and had to leave. About 10 girls, ranging from 5-8, median around 6 and a half.

TL; DR: The dancers I talked to gave me the impression Indy is slipping as a city generally. The talent issues might speak to this. Brad's is still my go-to, but that Saturday night shift set of talent was abysmal. I'd give Rio another shot, especially if more goes on there as has been hinted here.

You also forget that these girls can often make more money at home, remain virtually anonymous, and have total control over their schedule. While your points are valid, I know several ladies making 10-15 K+ every month without needing to rub all over some random guy.

There appears to be slipping interest in Indianapolis strip clubs. This is reflected here by the fact that only one post was made for the month of March. Last night at Dancers I saw a number of empty tables, something unusual for a Saturday night in past years. A week ago on a Sunday night there were only two dancers and two customers at PT's. On an afternoon visit to Jaguars one day I was alone with the bartender.

This is a result of a number of negative trends coming together. The economy is deteriorating and guys have less money. Strip clubs have increasingly become a part of black hip hop culture. Hanging out, making it rain and stage tipping is part of that culture but buying lap dances, a major source of stripper income, isn't. Cities use zoning and licensing laws to block new strip clubs, which lessens much needed competition for the existing clubs. Strippers respond to declining income by increasing lap dance prices, which drives customers away.

There will always be strip clubs, but they are unlikely to be as popular in the future as in the past. I can remember when I started going to local strip clubs a dozen years ago there were twenty clubs and in many of the clubs it was so crowded on a Saturday night you couldn't find a place to sit. Now there are only around a dozen clubs, maybe even less, and the quantity and quality of strippers in them has decreased markedly. The number of customers, especially the big spending ones, has had a large drop too.

With the caveat I am only an occasional Indy visitor, not a native, one dancer on my trip to Brad's pointed out Indy's per capita murder rate has actually gotten worse than Chicago's. Yes, the economy is rough all over, but it seems to be hitting Indianapolis particularly hard. Every rust belt town has tried to do its revival a little differently. Indy bet on being a convention town. COVID made us realize we don't need conventions as much as we thought because we can do a lot virtually, not to mention the loss of so much revenue from a year without much going on in that realm particularly.

There's also increasingly better options for quality talent, whether it be camgirl work, sugar arrangements, OF or working Insta and TikTok to skip this side of the game altogether.

I think a lot of dancers and spenders used the pandemic, either during or after, as an excuse to relocate. I don't think there's a lot of motive to come back to a place like Indy if you left.

It even hurts that the more-natural look is in right now. Once, Brad's was a haven for "torpedo tits," big fake boobs that looked anything but natural but felt good on your face. There was motivation for girls to make money in the club so they could invest in going bigger and make even more money. Now, though, it doesn't work that way.

There's still value in the club experience. A camgirl can't grind on your lap through the screen. But I think it's going to be tough for a place like Indy until some of these other factors trend upward. I don't see it happening in the near future.

So finally had time and hit dancers show club past Thursday night right at 10. Hoping to hit late shift and some of the dancers all over there instagram page. I would say 4 of them were there including Champagne. I saw her coming out of the VIP with a white thong and a dancers T-shirt that was probably xtra small and barely containing her huge natural boobs. My luck she walked right past me and we made contact and within five minutes we were on the couch. This girl is early twenties with a body to die for and a sexy and sultry personality to match. The dance, well use your imagination it was high mileage and I was holding on for dear life or maybe not. Funny think is I waited until 10 thinking all the good ones came later and she come in between 5 and 7. I thought I had the best dance in a long time with Maui at Brads a couple weeks back but this made that one look tame. As far as the vibe of dancers, I felt the selection was good and the dancers were definitely walking around and interacting way more than brads. My dances were 30 each and a steal IMO.

Morning Gentlemen-.

Haven't bee through your lovely burgh in quite some time, but am driving through this afternoon.

Considering a quick stop in atRio-from my recollection there was the best chance for some ITC action there.

Any intel on the Saturday day shift would be appreciated.

May you find what you are looking for.

Best-B.

As I was walking in, the manager said, "just so you know, there is a two-drink minimum here now". I've been going to Indianapolis and central Indiana strip clubs for a dozen years. I've seen required drink rules and I've seen no required drink rules, but I have never run into a rule saying I have to buy two drinks. I said that to him, and he replied he's worked in clubs across the country and that is the requirement in almost every club.

That is not the requirement in "almost every" club. That is not the requirement in most clubs I've frequented around the Midwest.

From what I've seen at strip clubs, a drink minimum is usually only employed when there's some sort of law or local ordinance or whatever that doesn't allow the place to out-and-out charge a cover. There's a club in northeastern Wisconsin where they go with a non-alcoholic bar to be full nude. When you walk in, they make you buy two $5 drink cards. That's essentially your cover. It has the added benefit for them of likely keeping you there for the length of drinking two beverages, though you're just getting an expensive soda or a bottle of water, so you can just leave with it if you want, or even just walk out with the cards if you want.

That's the only place I've been to like that, though. Everywhere else, even other NA places, they charge a cover. There are some places where they frown upon you sitting at the bar unless you have a drink, but even that's a more subtle thing.

That guy's trying to sell you a cart of manure. Don't buy it.

I went to PT's today. As I was walking in, the manager said, "just so you know, there is a two-drink minimum here now". I've been going to Indianapolis and central Indiana strip clubs for a dozen years. I've seen required drink rules and I've seen no required drink rules, but I have never run into a rule saying I have to buy two drinks. I said that to him, and he replied he's worked in clubs across the country and that is the requirement in almost every club. Curious, I went to another strip club discussion website which has visitors from all over and asked if that was true. I had multiple responders say that was an exaggeration. Lots of clubs don't have that requirement and many of the ones that do don't enforce it much of the time. I've noticed over the years that when new strip club managers come in from other cities, they never do even the most basic research on local strip club conditions. A Rust Belt city like Indianapolis can't have the same rules applied to it that you might see in a popular tourist destination like Las Vegas or Miami where you have lots of high spenders visiting.

You do that when the club is slow. PTs has been down the last couple years.
