I did not know Dion. Never interacted with him besides an occasional head nod, but he seemed like a decent and fairly easy going guy. He definitely did not have the same reputation some of the other male management has at clubs around here.

I was just up there Thursday night and Shively police were called up there about something as I was leaving.

Greenlight was never a spot for me where I would go and plan to spend hours there. It was always a see what new faces were there, try to setup some takeout or get a number and leave shortly after. Part of the reason for that was the laissez faire approach to security. It was never consistent in practice or personnel. There was always this confusing group of people who might have been staff or just friends with management, but rarely was there a person with anything like a clear security role and presence. Also the lack of a designated smoking spot always led to dancers and customers just hanging out front. That also led to a lot of conflict and disputes outside the club. I'm not even going to delve into the drug scene going on there.

Given the wide variety in their clientele, I think a pat down on entry would have been reasonable, but that was never the vibe of greenlight. It was strip club acting like a neighborhood bar.

RIP to Dion. I hope greenlight survives but I also hope they change how they operate as well.

My understanding is the first guy shot Dion (I think is his name) who fired back and motally wounded the shooter.

God, that's horrible. I've been there so many times I couldn't even guess. Has anybody heard if they caught the guy who did the shooting?

WHAS has a story on their website. No idea how preliminary that information is.

That doesn't sound like anytime I've been at either of those clubs. 🤪 There might be some girls for whom this is true, but by no means all.

Yes, VIP and drink prices have damn near doubled! Not only that but it seems extra fun is not a guarantee without tip. Visting BD several times the lthis month I've seen two disputes where a guy thought he was getting one thing, received another, wanted his money back but was asked to leave. No exchanges, and no refund.

Overall, the past couple of weeks have been weird. This month I club-hopped every weekend and some weekdays. The extracurricular fun is not as available as in the past, and I'm even including dancers whom I've had fun with in the past. My guess is that that extracurricular fun is only worth it for dancers if they are making good consistent money. With the way crowds have been looking, I doubt they are making good consistent money even with extra fun. Not only that but since regular nightclubs and bars close early I notice a lot of civilians showing up just to hang out. Especially on the weekends. It seems the majority of girls on 7th street have their friends come over to hang out.

This month I was more or less told no extra fun by more 7th street dancers than in my four previous pre-covid years combined. Contrary to my username, I am not new to this and know the game. Now might be a time to hibernate, or stay close to your trusted go-to.

Add in the fact that many dancers were itching to get back to making money in the clubs and it was a perfect storm for the industry.

I don't know that I would call this "normal". I can remember, even after the stupid unconstitutional no nudity law was passed, when many of the clubs were standing room only, but that was when they could still operate at full capacity.

I've been going to clubs the weekend after Derby for quite a few years now, and I don't recall it being like this. It's typically been pretty good, in fact, as all the local girls no longer have to compete with all the out of town dancers who came in just for Derby and customers like me, who stay the fuck away during that time, come back.

Also, Foxy Lady wasn't dead at all.

As well, a friend of mine who was at TB Derby weekend claimed it was crap then too.

I endorse your delay. I've heard from a highly reliable source that PT's will be re-opening the first weekend in June, and that the current capacity and other such restrictions will be lifted at the end of May. Assuming Herr Beshear doesn't reinstate them. 😕.
