Sherris is closed because they had a fire . About a week ago one of the local radio morning drives did a 3 hour gag all about Sherri's burning down.

Haven't you noticed, they have been at the Block(tm) for a while. ;-)

Just wanted to drop a note about "goings on" on the Block(tm). Which means this will be a short report. lol. Okay, here is the lowdown. Just before Christmas, there were a few new faces in the crowd, including one chubby (but cute with big boobs) Blockette who offered to meet up after hours. I was wiped and could not make it. Have not seen her since. My Blockette turned SW is now a Blockette turned SW turned Blockette. She has been back at work almost every night I have been in, and have not seen her on the streets, despite looking! Post-xmas things have been dismal. As usual, Lust has some very attractive, overpriced, underperforming ladies. Other clubs, same old same old. Plaza has indeed gone WAY downhill. Thugs everywhere. Some great talent though. But their prices are sky-high. Dancer Drinks are $5 more than everywhere else but Pussycat and Moustrap, which is now $21. But they will be out of biz after October, which I find sad, except the asshole doorman will be gone, which I am happy about.
The Midway has not had any interesting new talent, although an old friend re-appeared, but she has clearly ben picking at her face. If I want that I will find a SW. It may be time for a tour soon, bu don't expect talent. The Fall is always the best time.
I usually dont post, but i keep up with whats going on. Lately ive been hearin the block isnt all that it use to be. So i ventured last night to see what treasures lurked in my path. I first went to Lust, yea the place is over priced but the quality is a hell of alot better than most of the other clubs. After a while at Lust i ventured across the street were the adventure progressively got worse. It was back to back girls getting uglier and more desperate for cash. It went as far as some of them asking and demanding for my number so they could call me to arrange other activities after work. The last place I went to was MouseTrap. This was probably the worse experience of the night, I walked in and walked out. There were no customers in the place to begin with which led all the fugly ladies on a charge towards were i was. To top it all off, the minute i leave the place there are two fights goin on outside and is it me but are there more drug dealers on the block bothering patrons of these bars. One was actually yelling across the street i believe at me and i was gettin ready to cross the street and kick his ass but last minute decided not to. I came to my senses and realized i didnt go to the block to kick ass, i went to get ass.
Sadly i feel as if the block isnt what it use to be and although the services provided by the ladies is luring, the appearances of all these girls and just a higher volume of dealers dont draw me in anymore.

I wouldn't buy drugs down there either. The place is set up for tourists and rookies. I believe that it is easier to get ripped off there by the dealers. Just because LE is next door, that won't stop these idiots.
Larry!
Man, the quality at mousetrap has hit rock bottom and i cant get over it. It really looked like all the girls in there had the CCL goin. I wasnt sure if i was at a stripclub or one of the blocks on wilkens.
Why have the gods of olympus cursed the patrons of the block.... WHY??
All the lard must have gone to the Millstream. Went in for lunch Tuesday and there wasn't a dancer in there who couldn't have used a little time with Jenny Craig...Not great for a place known for eye candy.
The Block is definitely on the decline. A lot of the girls really do not want to work there anymore because of the bad elements that have takened over the block. Unfortunately, they really do not have any skills to do anything else. Most girls want to work during the day because it is a little safer, but they work at night because they make more money.
The BPD know that there is trouble on the Block. They know about the fights, the drugs and the drug dealers. I truly believe that BPD wants to wait until the area is completely ghetto. Then BPD will come in and close/condemn all of the clubs. Developers have been chomping at the bit a long time to redevelop the area into offices and suites. Remember how large the block was 20 years ago. Remember how many clubs. Remember the high quality of girls. Those days are long gone. Never to return. I have enjoyed the Block immensely, but I go maybe once a year. The hustle to buy overpriced drinks, the attitude of some of the girls, the drug dealers, it is not worth the headache anymore. The last time I met a girl at one of the clubs, she quoted me $$$$ for sex after her shift was over. WTF. She could not even dance well, so I would have to assume that she could not f*** well. Either way, I was not going to pay $$$$ dollars to find out.
What we see on the Block now is the beginning of the end. Cherish what good memories that you have. I honestly feel that in 20 years, the Block will no longer be here.
Propilot-over and out.
Have seen some of the latest posts on the block and could not agree more the block is in terrible decline and will probaly be gone sooner than later. Some of the clubs have the worst looking girls and the prices for drinks that are watered down is outragous. Now for my intel on my most recent visits downtown. The circus just skip it no good looking girls and most of them looked ccl. The harem have a few decent looking girls including a few that I done take-out with even an old girl that I used to see back in the day is back with an enhanced chest if you what I mean. There is one girl I tried to set up take-out with but she quoted me $$$ and told me that she's dated some ravens and charged them more. I came back with this "first of all I"m not Ray, Chris, etc. And my dough 's not like that. She's got a bangin ass body and nice set of fake tits but I still won't do it. The oais never go in there drinks are to damn high. The jewel box ccl haven, the diamond hardley any girls there, chez joey decent girls but drinks to high, red room is so-so as far a girls go, the pussycat the girls seem like there too good to dancing. The flamingo is ok have a couple of 10's, now the plaza is just straight gone to the dogs ccl 's inside not to mention the crack dealer that just straight made a camp for himself, the dynasty is'nt open in the daytime neither is the two o clock or the miami, lust the drinks are to high but the girls look good, the mousetrap not too many girls but I still do my take-out with a girl there from a previous post, the slipper got girls that if you are into black girls with big asses that are on point this is the place for you. That's my look on the clubs but in all honesty the block overall is not hot. Let's be real gentlemen back in the day would there be this much black presence on the block. I'm not trying to make this a race thing but the block is getting too hood, and this is coming from someone who grew up in the hood and have gotten to the point where he wants to get away from it. But the block is not hot anymore and all the mayor and the big wigs down the street at police headquarters is doing is just waiting for something big to happen so it can shut it down.
I was there in November (Sat night around 1:15). Many clubs had really poor talent. I wound up at the Jewell Box (downstairs) and had an awful time. There was a time when there was a club or girl that I could count on to deliver. Those days seem to be over.
The prices are so high now that "sampling" is cost prohibitive. The owners are running themselves out of business. I'm tired of hearing from girls that I am their first drink of the night.
The block has MANY faults, but I have enjoyed having the option to "preview" my selection of the evening. Now, it's just a hassle. A damn shame. I have to condition myself now that when I go, that it is OK not to spend any money. Otherwise, I just leave mad.
I'm starting to look into vacation spots that offer "female companionship. " I just don't see any other options at this point.
Haven't been down since the last time we all showed up, but I wonder if some of the dance bars, like Millstream, Scores, or the stuff down on N. Point, is picking up the action, and the girls. I have been meaning to go to the Gold club on Pulaski, got a friend that tends bar. OMG. And the milstream in the evening. Got another friend, na not yet a friend, that dances.
Hmmm,
I would go with Doc's thoughts here. He has probably the most info on the block. Maybe he is a blockette. Na, a block-or, the block-ee. Ummm help me out here guys. Any way Doc is the sorta resident. Expert. LOL. I guess I could show up one day down at the circus, and ask suzy. She would know how it all looks.
Smiling Fox
Umm if we have an RT, uh oh. Were do we all show up, Someone needs to take care of that. The last one we showed up at the goddess. But I was looking for Chase, or Analisa. Dam she is long gone, disapeared. I woulda loved to hit that lady. Shoulda not been a tight wad, and payed the $$$.
She was, No, she wasnt worth it. But she looked like it. LOL.
I went to the Block Saturday night. As the esteemed SirDrDunk and others reported, nothing really excited happened to my trip to the Block. Two things happenend to me my which me make review on how I think.
There was a scuffle outside The Oasis and there was a big crowd gathering around. There were 4, literally 4, Baltimore LEOs in the porn shop next to Dynasty just talking. I had to go over across the street and get their attention to look into it. I am not sure why the Baltimore Police are called "The Citys Finest'. I lost a lot of respect.
The other thing is that everyone on the board has stated about the quality of girls on the Block. I was curious though, there are some fricking hot female Bartenders on the Block (Example. Flamingos Bartender that worked Sat night. She was White, 40s, and in good physical shape). I just wondered if anybody had tried to pick up a bartender? I figure it would be harder to do, but I am curious if anybody has tried and what they did?

The answer is maybe. Block Bartenders can actually make quite a bit of money, depending on the bar. There was a poster on another board who successfully dated a bartender, but IIRC, he actually saw her off block somewhere and they wound up chatting. I myself went out with a bartender, but she was no longer bartending when I dated her. When she had been bartending I did not get the time of day. After some financial reverses, she wound up dancing, remembered me and we hit it off, and did some civilian-type (i.e. free, well I bought drinks, dinner, etc) dating. I would say that the bartenders consider most of the patrons to be scum (or marks), just above the dancers on the food chain...lol

I walked in to miami and one girl was tryin to charge me $$$$$$$ for take out. Considering she had one of the saggiest set of fakes breast with the CCL look and not to mention the smell of rotting ass just made me drop my jaw at amazement at how crazy she was. Not even for $5 would i have taken that out. Aside from the fact that she tells me she wants my number, she tells me i cant get her number because she lost her phone, yet whips out her "stolen" phone to take my number down.
I wish there was a spray that was effective on repelling beat punnany.

Yea, most of these bartenders are dancers themselves so if you make the right offer you can def. get the attention you need.
Has anyone checked out the new (well it was Chubbies, then a gay club) club on Eastern Avenue in Fells? They have a sandwich board out front that says "Gentlemen's Club - Free Parking"

Wow; is this the older auburn haired bartender that used to work days? Every time I was ever there when she worked, she was the coldest b1+c# I had ever ever met. I often wondered how the girls ever made any money as she all but chased customers away - she would always hassle girls just as they were making a sale or getting a tip. I posted about her previously; perhaps it's still in the archives somewhere.
I'm glad you had a good time, I'm just having a hard time believing that Nikki was, well, nice or fun; after a while, I avoided the JB whenever I saw her in there. Still, good story, good job and I'm glad you had some fun.
Went to several places on Saturday afternoon. There was a very attractive blonde at Flamingo that came over and flat out asked to jack me off at the end of the bar or take me in the back and fuck me. Now I went ahead and bought her a $20 drink and had a lot of fun at my stool with her, but didn't want to jump at the first opportunity of the day. Went into Hustler. $5 cover and $7 beers. I don't remember beers being that expensive last time I was there (over a year ago). Anyway, when I went in there was not a dancer on stage. One eventually got on stage and danced for the 10 guys there, but this was not very exciting. I guess I wanted the block experience!
I went in a nearby bar where you have to walk down the stairs and turn right. Ended up getting a beer here, there was a young brunette, long hair, very slender with saggy tits. Other than the tits I liked her body. I reached into her g-string and took at look at her beaver--totally bald! She had a nice little pussy. Talked a little while, told bartender I didn't want a drink for her, talked some more and told her I might stop in later.
Walked outside, saw a tall, pretty brunette walking down the sidewalk. She had just picked up a sandwich for dinner and was going shopping before going back to her apartment. I offered her a ride to her shopping destination (Dollar Store) and then we went back to her apartment. We watched some TV while she ate and then I had a very good long, slow BBBJ from her; lots of DT. She gave me her cell number but I threw it away before I got home.
Her hands look like they have some syringe marks (? ) but other than that she has a great body and cute B/C cups! She's probably 27 or so. Oh yea, her name is Miranda.
I think the blonde at Flamingo would be a lot of fun, but the block prices are ridiculous.

Miranda is well known to some of us. While I have never been with her, she is a sweetheart. Just a little to thick for my tastes. Did she throw in the bbbj in exhcange for the ride, or was there a surcharge involved?

This is the place that used to smell like lysol and was like going to your friends house to watch his retarded sister dance in the corner?
Even if it's had extensive remodeling, I'm not sure I could get the memories of what it used to be like out of my head long enough to enjoy myself...

Yes and no. That is when it was "Boots Saloon". It has not been that for many years. But great quote. When it was Chubbies it was halfway decent, and I suspect there was takeout. They also had an all-you-can-drink special. It was like $20 for unlimited Heinekens.
Good times...

Went to The Block on Saturday and visited most of the bars. Overall, nothing very exciting to report.
I do want to write about my experience at The Plaza. I decided to check this place out before I headed home because it is usually hit or miss. I walked down to check it out and was about to leave when the bartender called me over and said he would buy me a beer. I am into the 3 B's = Beer, Broads, and the Benjamins. Knowing that nothing is really free at The Block, I decided to have a cold one. Apparently there were like 14 girls working that night and I was the only guy in there. I got hit on by every girl, but I was not really interested in any of them. I do remember one girl from New Years Day that came over to talk with me. I remembered she had temporarily lost use of her right hand. I was offered another free beer and just watched the show. I was asked several times if I "partied", but because of my job, I don't do drugs. I ended up talking with one girl who just started working there and she was amazed on how hardcore the girls were. She was explaining to me that most of the girls were doing hard stuff in the woman's bathroom. She said there was usually broken glass on the floor and blood on the walls. She said she never walks barefoot in there.
I decided to have one last drink at Midway before calling it a night. This is was my first time doing that. The funny thing is I could have easily gotten laid if I wanted to (twice). A fat older white woman (aka cougar) was really into me, but I decided to pass because she reminded me of my grandmother (ug). The girl with the bad arm came into Midway and started talking to me again. She said she didn't make any money and was suppose to take her kids somewhere Sunday and did not want to disappoint them. She said for 5 Jacks she could show me a good time. I kinda felt unsure about her so I decided to pass.
The other thing I noticed is how does the Miami Club stays in business? They always have two bartenders, no patrons, and 3 fat dancers.
Hey all. I normally go to GGC, but I never try to get any extras there. I decided to visit all of the clubs around the Hustler Club. I poked my head in a few that were dead because the girls were funky. Then, I decided to stay at Dynasty's. There was a hottie who was new. She looked yummy. Now, I wasn't trying to pick up anyone or anything, so I enjoyed my drinks. I socialized. Then, I left because the meter was only good for thirty minutes. That sucked. Anyway, I have never tried to pick up a stripper. Here are my questions:
1. How in the hell do you even bring up the conversation of something outside the club? Do you just ask? I don't want kicked out.
2. Where should I take a girl if I am successful? Is there a NoTell around?
3. Are there any girls you know of who would be more susceptible to persuasion?
Does anyone know Sam down at the old Circus bar.
She is on CL, lookin for a drink and some play.
The pic she sent isnt the best so I am not real sure how good or bad she is.
She is a daytimer.
Guess I will truck on down one day and stop in for a coke.

We agreed to $40 plus tip if it was good. It was very good, so I tipped! She provided the room (her apt) and I was there for almost an hour--we watched some TV before and after. I was impressed how intelligent and funny she was.

The Block is very hit or miss. Many girls will take your number and never call, while many will give you a number that never works or sporadically works. Or you call and they tell you to fuck off. Everyone has there own style or method of approach. You are unlikely to get kicked out for asking about outside action, these girls get asked all the time. Most will reply that they don't go outside of the club. This may or may not be true. Once you get to know them (or not) give them your number. Tell them if they change their mind they can always call. You would be surprised. A slow night, or they get there late and are working solely on commission with no shift pay and all of a sudden you get a call. Plus, with time you will get a feel for the vibe the ladies give off. Heck, sometimes if you are nice a freebie will even come your way. But it took me years of Blocking to discover some of these truths. I have just given them to you for free. Enjoy.

I can honestly say that Sam has never been the hottest girl at the Circus. For those of you who haven't been there lets just say that a full set of teeth will automatically put a girl in the top ten percent.
B.D.
Guys,
I am not sure by your comments sam is that wonderful.
As I said, perhaps I will go down and pay my good friend Suzy, the bartender a visit. Its always nice to stop in and say Hi.
As for Sam. Well I don't know. If she is in I will say Hi. All the girls stop by anyway. And Suzy always sends me her top pick right up front. Unless I tell her I am not looking. Even then she sends the girl over. You know Suzy knows her business.
Smiling Fox
Sam is basically a nice girl but she is a big time junkie and crackhead. I have known her for several years. I personally like her but she is what she is. sam has the rep. of being a big time party girl,many of her customers if not most only use her for her drug contacts and to use her place to party. I was also told she has hep-c. I recently saw her boyfriend he not only looked like a major junkie. He also looked like he might have aids. My best advice is to avoid any sexual contact or at the very least use extreme caution.
I just wanted to let everyone know that Barbera Ann, a blockette, about 45 years old ODed on drugs and died. She was a distant family member of mine, (hard life). I guess that lifestyle can bite.
Im not looking for sympathy, didn't really know her that well, just wanted to pass the info along in case one of you guys knew her.
Anyone up for a tour of the newly smoke-free Block(TM)? It's really just for sh*ts and giggles. I highly doubt it will be smoke free. I am sure the bars will be willing to pay the fines rather than have the girls in back all night smoking. If you are interested, and are a known and trusted senior-member, PM me for details.
Dr. Monger
I just returned from the block. I spoke to Sam about her cl. ad. Sam said she did not put the ad on cl. I totally believe her. Sam doesn't have a computer and she doesn;t even know how to use one. She was pretty upset about the ad. She has a teenage son and is afraid he will see it.Sam also asked me to let everyone know that whoever you contact when you respond to the ad it's not her. I don't know if any photos are really of her.
I can't remember seeing so many block reports recently. All of the reports recently have been right on with everything that I have expierenced there. However, I also agree that the money you have to shell out at the bars there are steep. That's why I never forget to check out the Midway bar. For those of you who might not know the Midway is NOT a strip bar. It is just a "local" bar right in the middle of all the little strip bars on the block. If you don't want to spend all the $$$ at the strip bars the Midway might be an option for some of you. You can almost always find a couple of SWs in there looking for some action. You might even be lucky enought to see one there who is decent looking. All of them will hang out with you at the bar if you buy them a drink. Drinks are NORMAL prices. 2 or 3 bucks for a beer there. Most of them will flirt and play with your c@@k. If you are in there looking for action they will be more than happy to play. I admit I have never taken one out but a couple of them told me if I was interested they know of a hotel "nearby". I just don't really like the idea of having one of those women in my car. I am not really into that scene. But like I said the Midway (for me anyway), is a cheap alternative to the strips bars when I am looking for a little harmless fun. As always, have fun and be safe.
Over the years, the dancer's drinks have gotten smaller and the prices higher. $25. 00 seems to be the norm now for a standard bar girl's drink. Too much for too little. I went into Norma Jean's and they charged $32! The Red Room didn't have too many attractive woman, mostly between the grade of 7-8, but at least they upgraded the bar stools and made improvements to the interior. Overall, I can't say I saw anyone who was a 9 or 10 anywhere. Twenty-five years ago, you could find a lot of attractive woman working there. But no more. It's nice to go back, to go to places that remind you of pleasant memories. Thankfully, some of the old bar tenders are still there like Joanni from Chez Joeys or Dee from the Diamond. Otherwise, it's just not the place it used to be.
A generally slow night. It looked a lot like a week night. I went into 2 bars (Jewel Box upstairs and Chez Joey). Both had minimal to no customers. It was great to not have to deal with smoking. However, the bar tenders were REALLY talking about the loss of customers due to the smoking ban.
Of course, the lack of traffic did not impact girl drink prices at all. The large VIP drinks were negotiable (though I was still quoted a price of $350 BEFORE tip).
These bars really need to come to grips with their pricing. They could do a lot more volume with a nominal price drop. There are many other options at the rates they charge.
