Follies Report. Saturday June 28
I got to Follies at about 7:30 pm on Saturday in order to avoid the lines, crowds, and increased entry fees. *There was a nice crowd, but I had no problem getting valet parking ($5. 00) and also got a good seat at a high table along the back wall. Cover was $10.00. *The talent on the floor started out a mix of white, Latina, ebony and Asian. *More and more chocolate flavors came in the later it got. *The early crowd is older, more laid back, and the girls are on their best behavior. *For the first couple of hours, I was able to chill, have a drink, watch some booty shake, and not be harassed by dancers, servers, or anybody. *However, during the later hours, the crowd got younger and more thugged out. *Not real thugs, mind you, want to-be thugs. LOL. * By 11:00 pm, the talent was almost entirely ebony. *And the customer service declined for the "non-bottle-popping" customers. *Basically, the dancers turned into sharks looking for easy money prey. Cats who sit and throw hundreds of dollars at dancers for basically doing nothing but air dancing nearby. *And while waiting around for the big-ballers, the girls drink and smoke and their attitudes become somewhat stank in some cases. *The staff prefers the bottle-poppers also as my seat suddenly became "VIP Reserved" at about 11:00 pm and I was promptly evicted (nicely). *.
The good news is that Follies has some of the most bodacious ebony talent I've seen in any club anywhere, and pretty much all of them give good $10.00 nude table dances. *The downside is as it gets later, young people take over, and the scene turns into a "rap video. ". *Some want to-be thugs almost started fighting. Over nothing. But Follies security got on it relatively quickly. *Still, more security is needed for the late crowd IMHO.
I managed to spend some time with some very nice ladies. *Here is how they rate based upon looks, service, and attitude.
Brooke (VIP) 9. 9.
Dominique 9. 3.
Amber 9. 1.
Elle 9. 0.
Niecy 8. 0.
Kela 8. 0.
Another traitor in our midst
So I'm at Follies today, enjoying myself as always and decide to take Molly up on her VIP pitch. We're headed to one of the small back rooms by the couches and on the way in what do I see, some dude with his phone open to usasexguide showing the girl what's been written about her. I stopped in my tracks, tapped him on the shoulder and was like, "Really dude," and he just shrugged it off like he didn't know what I was talking about. So dude if you're reading this, not cool man.
This young hottie. Will be at a place off. Tonight
Old National called the "inner circle ", she said it's an after hours kind of place she told me 1 am- 7 am. She will be dancing under the name "envie", she said she had no idea if they had "VIP" rooms. I'm years & years removed from strip scene so I know nothing more.
Peaches of Atlanta (the former Queen City)
Making rounds and decided to check out the newly renovated club. I have to say it does look nice and it's a complete 180 from what the club was. That being said, I don't like it (LOL)! I didn't see a sign on front of the bldg stating the name, but it's on flyers and menus inside the club. Cover $10. Got there around 11 pm. The parking lot was already full and it's looks like they are trying to commandeer the Wells Fargo area for overflow parking. After paying cover, I immediately tried to enter the mens room which is right off the entryway, but it was locked! Dude told me to just use the ladies room (LOL)! There does not appear to be any restrooms inside the actual club besides these. Two circular stages and 4 VIP rooms (1 located where the "old" one was). I really didn't see any of the thick girls I like but some decent chicks. But once the DJ stated that dances was $10, I knew I wouldn't be stayin' long (LOL)! I confirmed the dance price with a couple of girls. Then asked about use of VIP, which was stated you have to buy a bottle (champagne? Each VIP has a huge screen tv with espn playing on it. All 4 rooms had a group in them and no one was actually using it for "private" dances. More like a party hangout. And that was the vibe I got for this entire visit. It feels like a lounge with girls dancing at their respective spots on stage. A little too glitzy and no more hole in the wall feel, which is what I liked about the club. Pool tables are gone, too. They have food menu now. Well, another $5 spot is off the table! After surveying the club for about 10 minutes, I graciously made my exit.
Silicon Valley High Roller
I'm not sure where to post this, but since the night started at the Cheetah and the club we went to later had scantily clad women dancing on stage I am putting it here!
First, I got to experience the high roller life on someone else's dime. We had a young exec visiting this week who is based in Silicon Valley. He is maybe 30 yrs old and dripping in money. He told me I was going to be his wing man and party Saturday night and he was picking up the whole tab. Who am I to say no?
I thought he had blown me off, but he finally called at around 11 PM. He was staying at a Buckhead area hotel so I met him there. He had a limo take us to the Cheetah. It was pretty tame stuff but he was spending hundreds and we had girls parked at our table all night. My new BFF from Silicon Valley was collecting digits, too. Right before closing he started texting someone and told me we had one more stop to make. I was thinking it was pretty late to hit another strip club, but I was along for the ride.
Another limo ride to a place on Buford Hwy. I had no idea where we were, but it was somewhere near the Pink Pony. I later found out it was called the Rush Lounge. The parking lot was packed and I could hear pounding disco music from inside. BFF told me to hang out in the limo. He had to meet up with a girl he met at the Cheetah a few days before. The limo had a bar, so I was happy to play along. After about 20 minutes BFF comes back along with two STUNNING girls dressed in bikini tops and shorts that were covered in little coins like a belly dancer costume. I'm thinking WTF? The girls pretty much ignored me and BFF poured them cognac. Then one of them sat in my lap while she finished her drink. BFF asked them if the were ready and one girl says yeah, let's do this. BFF threw some Benjamins on the floor of the limo and the girls started giving us French lessons right there in the back of the limo. BFF and the girls head back to the club and BFF tells me to chill in the limo for a while. YES SIR! It is now approaching 4 AM and BFF comes back.
He tells me we have to wait for the girls. Apparently our partying is not over yet. He explains that the club was hosting a rave party and it had what amounts to go-go dancers on stage that rev up the crowd. BFF met one of them at the Cheetah. He said some of them are also strippers during the week. Most of them made serious extra money by quietly visiting the club's VIP area and "partying" with high rollers who pay for private party rooms. Or their limos, I suppose!
After a while two blondes in street clothes appear. One of them is from before and the other is a new face. They get in and they are obviously wasted. Next stop, BFF's hotel. He actually had a two bedroom suite. Let's just say the girls got a cab a little before 7 AM. We slept in until checkout time.
I asked BFF what that all cost and he said not to worry about it. He did say he gave them a grand. I have no idea if that was each or for both.
Now that I have recovered I HAD to post this. I know I can't afford it, but does anyone know anything about this Rush Lounge and the dancer-hookers at the parties? I did not recognize any of the 3 girls from other strip clubs. BTW, they were 10's on the stripper scale. Solid 10's.
