You should know I had an exchange with Slinky via email, and he suggested I put this out there as a warning. I'm so glad he puts on these events, and he's great.
I'm no newbie, but I made some basic, dumb mistakes. I'm sharing so people can learn, so please keep the ridicule to a minimum.
Thanks!
- First thing, I took "Love" (tall blond, tats, lg naturals) upstairs to do a more private couch dance (the couches upstairs cost $30, fyi). At the couch, I ask if we can wait for the next song to start because we were at the end of a song, and she says, "You already paid for the couch, so let's get started!" She sits me down and starts to dance. The song ends in about 15 seconds (which I expected), and I figure it won't count. She and I didn't click (that happens). She quoted $500 for FS and I passed. When we got to the end of a second full song, I asked how many songs, and she said "three". Arguing about this sort of thing isn't really useful, so I paid her and went on my way, extremely annoyed with myself. $90 wasted.
- I was sitting on the couch on the main floor, enjoying the pole show, when "Vivian" (Asian wearing bunny ears) asked me if I wanted a dance. I said "Sure, why not?" She hopped on my lap and said, "I have one rule—if you touch my titties, you have to tip me!" I replied, "Ok, as long as you don't mash them in my face. Then that's you touching ME with your titties." To which she replied, "You're just cheap." I said, "That's not very nice." She said, "Well, you are." After she was done with the one "dance" (where she just bounced on my lap for 2 minutes) I tipped her anyway to show her no harm no foul, to which she added, "I usually get a much bigger tip. You're still cheap." I didn't think her trick was funny, so she insulted me. My fault for not rolling with her joke, I guess. (Sounds like others had more fun with her.)
- Right after that, I asked Peach (thin white girl under 5'), who I've met before, for a dance. She said that $50 per dance is the "mandatory house price", but that "There's no way I would charge $50 per dance". Instead she charges $50 for 5 minutes on a timer. I should have said "no", but I was not thinking straight. The dance was basically her sitting on my lap talking the whole time, almost no movement. I saw she gave others much better dances. Again, this is mostly my fault, so I hope you learn from my mistake.
- Right after Peach, there was a "new" girl there called "Bunny" (white, a bit of a belly, curvy) who seemed to be with this guy with a Russian-sounding accent. I asked if she wanted me to be her first dance, and she said, "Yes!" To my surprise, the Russian guy sat next to us, talking with me and Bunny the ENTIRE time. (I tried to get up after one dance, but for a bunch of reasons, it didn't work.)
Now for the best part. All this happened in about an hour and a half. Maybe less.
So, a bunch of mistakes, one after another. If I stayed longer, maybe the bad experiences would have been offset by much better experiences, but that didn't happen.
"Advice" I already knew
= take your time, don't rush
= settle prices before doing ANYTHING
= if the song count is off, contact Slinky immediately!
Thanks again. I will be less stupid (and "cheap") next time.
Good luck!
