[QUOTE=Binggo3;4212267]Anyone have info on the hispanic girl at the red room. She goes by Mary Jane? I had a great time with her, but lost the info she gave me. Really want to connect with her again.[/QUOTE]If its the same Mary Jane with red hair that I know, I just saw her in Mill Streams.
Rates went up with that place, a dance is now $40/ song. When you go to Mill Streams on a Tuesday or Saturday, its a "two-for-one" dance.
Basically, Mill Streams is the same rate as Hustlers. Maybe cheep because of the beer and parking is free.
Not very happy with the rate hike but I can't blame the owner for making his / her money.
One of the dancers I talk to are apparently part of a swingers community in the certain part of Catonsville, MD. That's all I'm going to say! You guys are going to need to go in and figure it out on your own.
[QUOTE=TalkinTrash;4215799]Anyone ever have any moments with this gem? Heard she was giving mic skills on the side. Any info?[/QUOTE]Cute. She looks familiar. Club name?

Done.[/QUOTE]Theres a new renovation going on next to Lust — if they get one non-adult business there, they'll drive the block away (see 14th st in DC as Example) until then, can still have ok time at hustlers (nothing special, but ok late on weekend), Red Room on weekends and Pussycat on Saturday; nothing like old days, but usually worth visit— go now while going still good).

Even more disappointing than last night's excursion. Next time I'm back. Qill be prob gone.
[QUOTE=Duuuuuuude;4221090]Cute. She looks familiar. Club name?[/QUOTE]Headline says was a Scores dancer.
[QUOTE=WarDoggie;4222040]So went back tonight. Even more disappointing than last night's excursion. Next time I'm back. Qill be prob gone.[/QUOTE]We might have crossed; was there too. Yes, I was surprised at lack of decent dancers, but actually visits to my 3 go-tos demonstrate today's disfunction:
Red Room. Undergoing periodical desertion by dancers, due to reported shady stuff by management / bartenders. Usually bounces back, though may take some time. But yesterday had only 4 dancers at 11 on a Saturday).
Harem. Actually had good number of lookers (Candy, Tee, and best looker in the block in years named Varni), but all are new and very hands off (one actually was going around saying "hi, would you like to talk".
Pussycat. Good demonstration of problems with block; cause it was so nice (according to one well known bartender) girls were calling in left and right saying they just wanted to goof off and not come in.
Finally, one other thing. Nice weather brought groups of basically harmless but threatening looking groups of thug-looking types, including group of teens buzzing around on those mini-bikes. After events of last week, even if threat isn't real, it's going to scare away people. It's too late now, but if I owned a block bar, I would have hired off-duty cops to keep sidewalks clear.

Will be heading to the Preakness in a few weeks with my buddies. We always spend an evening at the Block. If any of you have recommendations, please pm me.

What happened last week?
[/QUOTE]Same question here. I haven't been to the block in a while, but a friend of mine is thinking of heading that way.
[QUOTE=Alasqano;4223217]Same question here. I haven't been to the block in a while, but a friend of mine is thinking of heading that way.[/QUOTE]To be clear, it wasn't on the block. Near some Inner Harbor stores and restaurants, there was a rash of teenage crime.
The block itself, in reality, is pretty safe except at closing time, and even then there is heavy police presence. But Baltimore's overall impression of a city out of control colors perceptions and keeps people away (not just the block — see John Hopkins decision to place a new facility in DC, not Baltimore).
[QUOTE=MrLucky;4222967]Will be heading to the Preakness in a few weeks with my buddies. We always spend an evening at the Block. If any of you have recommendations, please pm me.[/QUOTE]With caveat that this can change hourly, Harem for some attractive but pretty hands off dancers, interspersed with a few much more experienced but less attractive types, Pussycat for usually a couple of very attractive types mixed with majority of old, 300 lb or 89 lb types. Red Room often has multiple lookers who are fun, but many CLEARLY with major drug issues, and right now, dancers have fled due to some internal stuff with management. Hustlers can sometimes have nice eye candy though often not but dancers either lame or VIP-based at silly prices (360 half hour is cheapest). All this is based on Saturday night, after 9. Friday night usually bad, and Saturday day only Red Room is worth it.

[QUOTE=AllTheTime;4223446]With caveat that this can change hourly, ... [/QUOTE]AllTheTime summed it up nicely in his first phrase. Anything we say now can be completely wrong by Preakness time.
Don't think of the block as different businesses, think of the block as a single business with different rooms. Walk around from bar to bar until you see something you like and then sit down and enjoy. When I walk into a bar and don't like the scenery, I never hesitate to walk back out. It only takes about 15 seconds to see if a bar has too many fuglies and junkies.
It is unlikely that you will find a bar full of hotties. That ended decades ago.
Visited on Wed evening from 5:30 - 7 PM.
Jewel box, nothing, on large black gal at the end of the bar, no bartender and no movement. So passed.
Pussy Cat- One Black gal on stage, young and perfect body. Had a wig on that looked weird to me, but she was a 10 for sure. However, no eye contact, looked like she hated being there, little to suggest she would even appreciate buying her a drink. One white gal at the end of the bar farthest from the door was in a hooded sweater with a guy, since she had her back to the door, I figured not much going on there, and the last white gal was preoccupied with food, she came over only after the bartender spoke to her. . so again, did not feel like things would be entertaining. One beer and left.
Red Room- Active, about 6 or more gals. 2 or three were with 2 or 3 black guys, and there seemed to be some discussion about $50, which corresponded to 2 gals drinks. This seemed to occupy Rob (the bartender) for about 15 min. While I sat there waiting for a beer. No dancers dancing either, another guy comes in and sits with me and we both note there are no dancers, and Rob seems to be having a good time dancing to the music behind the bar while counting $50. Really? Finally got a beer, and after another 10 min a gal went up. I was probably a bit pissed at the lack of reasonable service so did not really enjoy the dancer, although she was not my type either. One white gal who was cute did come by for a drink, but she talked a bit too much for me. Or I was just not in the mood. So left after 1 beer.
Haren. Bartender is white gal who is either pregnant or getting large. I think pregnant. She was in a bad mood to boot, one large black gal a the end of the bar, one white gal that was young and good looking. Rate her 8, she got up to dance but did not take off her bottoms. So I figured low mileage there, she was young too, so perhaps not on the black that long. After one beer jumped ship to.
Circus. Always seem to end up here, frankly was not as bad as normal! Crystal was there (gal with damage to her head) seemed like she was getting heavier, treated her to 2 drinks for old times, tall black dancer with blonde hair was attractive but I did not get to sit with her. Did treat one other gal to a drink, white but older, did not impress me much so moved on. The other white blonde that is thin and loud was there, not to my liking at all. Sue the barkeep was her usual self, swiping any and all ones left on the bar whether for her or not. I had to laugh after her first scoop of about 6 $ in ones that I know better.
Overall, busted trip.
Still waiting for something to open up elsewhere in MD VA DC. Seems like all are going downhill.
