[QUOTE=SpaSpazz;5347562]I don't know. I've been a very steady regular there for years, and I always call ahead and book. If they see my number, they'd pick up or call back asap. I'm starting to worry.[/QUOTE]Yeah. Definitely not like them to not answer the phone. I've never had a problem when I have called in the past.
I'll find out some details shortly. My fave isn't in today (and I hope she's not gone for good, she's my ATF), but I'll report back.

Yes it's open again after a 5-day shutdown that no one claims to know the reason for. New Mamasan. Yoko was not there, mms doesn't know if she's returning. That would totally suck but save me a bundle. Had Jenny, who is extremely nice, a little older, but knows why you're there. Not sure who else will be there.

[QUOTE=SpaSpazz;5350607]Yoko was not there, mms doesn't know if she's returning. [/QUOTE]I was there on Friday and was told she was not coming back and it sounded like it was because she was a fan of the Blue Jays.
Any insights on Luna Spa in Manchester CT? Is it better than Burnside Ave, planning to try a new place? What's the tip usually expected their?
[QUOTE=ILuvBoobs69;5354948]Any insights on Luna Spa in Manchester CT? Is it better than Burnside Ave, planning to try a new place? What's the tip usually expected their?[/QUOTE]It's a lot nicer than it used to be, it used to be a dump and staffed by two genuinely unpleasant ladies. It's been renovated maybe two years ago so is much better now but is basically a standard rub-tug place. Nothing wrong with it except that Ginza across the street is simply better -- younger cuter girls, more accessible menu options, plus Ginza has a table shower while Luna does not (they have a regular standing shower that you can use by yourself if you want a shower. Not the same). Spruce St is a block away and is also better (but a different experience). And in no way does it measure up to Nicole / Burnside standards. Same pricing / tip as anywhere else, although Luna might be $0. 7 house fee (can't quite remember) vs $0. 6 at Ginza. But if Ginza is busy or you just want to take a shot, there's nothing wrong with it and you'll get your basic enjoyable AMP experience.
[QUOTE=RonOne;5339547]Had lease signed in Meriden. 4 rooms already redone an ready. Curved signs above doors. Landlord came in Tues night.
What kind of a place are you running here? This is not an office. His attorney called the next day. Put us on notice to leave or else.
Looking for a new an different spot. One we looked at before.[/QUOTE]What about the old Alpha Club site in the south end of Hartford?
[QUOTE=GordonFreeman;5358597]What about the old Alpha Club site in the south end of Hartford?[/QUOTE]Very rough neighborhood.
[QUOTE=BigBang2;5358606]Very rough neighborhood.[/QUOTE]Maybe Star Spa in Bristol? - has been closed for more than a year.
[QUOTE=GordonFreeman;5358597]What about the old Alpha Club site in the south end of Hartford?[/QUOTE]Gordon You are showing your age. LOL Do you remember that both local LE an the Feds raided that place Arrested all owners an closed the place down.
[QUOTE=RonOne;5359578]Gordon You are showing your age. LOL Do you remember that both local LE an the Feds raided that place Arrested all owners an closed the place down.[/QUOTE]See if you can sublease from the woman who runs Spruce St. There's three rooms plus a large unfinished area that she doesn't use at all (for massages, at least.) and even a second entrance that she doesn't use, so there's plenty of space for everyone, no one else works there but her. Far as I can tell she owns the building so no landlord, plus she's already registered with local health / LE so nothing new there for anyone to notice. I know she's paranoid but she also has expensive tastes so perhaps the extra cash flow plus splitting the overhead would be attractive.

Would not park anywhere near it though, walked blocks as they employed several local "gentlemen" to make sure your car was safe if you did there. Also Whispers was around back then. The girls at Alpha were much hotter. If you go back a few years further you may recall little House of Foxes in W. Hartford. To this day they had the best looking MP girl I have ever had. And I think I have sampled several hundred in a variety of locales. Back then BJ Uncovered for 40. And FS covered for 60.00 with an absolute 10. My go to was 21 years old and I can get hard thinking of her over 40 years later. Kept me going between girlfriends and one sight stands. Life before the aids virus was gooodd!

Whispers second floor Webster St. Around the corner on New Britain Ave was a hot first floor MP across from Finast.
Never heard of House of Foxes. Can you tell me the address that it was in West Hartford please.
[QUOTE=RonOne;5359578]Do you remember that both local LE an the Feds raided that place Arrested all owners an closed the place down.[/QUOTE]You are making me cry. That was a sad day for all of us. Alpha stayed open after the rest got shut done. Rumor was it was because that was the one the cop used. If I recall fed eventually got them to voluntary close as part of a plea deal. The owner got caught bringing wads of cash overseas.
My friend got caught in one of the few raids at Alpha. They put his name in the Hartford Courant. He worked for the local volunteer FD and also performed as a clown at kids birthday parties. He had to give those up. Luckily he was not married and most people that knew him did not really care since he was single.
