Sounds Like an Interesting Concept.
Thunderbolt?
Well, before your post OneKnot, I'd never heard of the place. So naturally my "horn (s)" goes up and my hunger for intel grows. I find an address, a number and a link to a Metro Times article. The link won't work on my phone so I said screw it and call the. What the hey! A "gentleman" answers "Hello,". (Hmmm, where's the greeting "Thunderbolt, Hello, may I help you?"). I tell him I'm trying to reach "Thunderbolt". Well the convo begins. Basically, the maverick of a gentleman has opened a strip club in his residence. He needs an HOURs notice to get a dancer for you.
I told him I was interested in coming through Saturday aftrenoon. He said sure just give him a ring first. It sounds like most (all) his dancers are black. You just tell him your preference. He kept mentioning things are "slow" right now (Christmas. Valentines Day). He was a little hard to understand but I guess he has pics of his available dancers. Oh yeah the cover is $20 and no booze is served. I want to check it out for sure. I hoping this is a HIGH mileage "establishment". Shoot, sounds like he would "open" just for me if I call ahead and tell him what dancer I want. Hey if its all that I could do that once a week and be happy!
[QUOTE=Oneknot;1378356]Has anyone ever been to thunderbolt? I remember vaguely from posts about a year ago people were saying that the guy had a Portfolio of dancers to choose from. What are your experiences? I'm Interested in checking this place out and would like to get a good idea of what I'm walking into.[/QUOTE]

Thunderbolt doesn't need a cabaret license like other Detroit strip clubs must have. The city ordinance regulating other places doesn't apply, because it's not a bar serving liquor or food, but rather a private arrangement in a private home. To him it's like having a strip-o-gram sent to your own house.
"As far as I'm concerned," Thunderbolt says,"when a guy calls up to come here, he's my 'friend. '" And though the club is dry, people can still drink."If they want to party and bring their own party favors, that's OK," he says.
There's absolutely no prostitution allowed. Thunderbolt stays in the room the whole time, watching. He takes 10 percent of the girls' earnings for his services.
