You're right on Lipstixx being gross. It's a dive for sure. But I've always had a good time going there as a customer. Anyway . . .

I'd definitely like to work at DJV as they have a stationary AND a spinning pole, but I think their VIP and CR are a tad overpriced, no?

Anyone have any word on Scores? I like laid-back places and am thinking of skipping auditioning at the corporate/big-chain places as I'm new and I worry my hustle won't be so good. I need a cheap-o/ish place I worry.

My auditions started off rough. I got turned away at the door of Penthouse cuz of my tattoos. I stopped by stilettos & auditioned & was immediately hired -but that place was so gross & disgusting (empty plastic cups on stage & balled up napkins, vip dance area had a cobblestone/concrete floor outside, etc -just looked like it was so dirty). I was afraid I'd get another staph infection or something from there. Then I auditioned at Babes & was offered day shift cuz my mid section needs toning. So one of the nice door guys/promoter/whatever from Babes walked me over to Rick's Saloon thinking that he could help me get hired there, but same thing about toning up the mid section & tattoos. Temptations & Scores both told me to come back later in the evening to audition -but I was told bad things about those clubs so I decided not to go back. I started getting really scared at this point. I had my fingers crossed the entire time at Deja Vu & the hiring manager said he really liked my stage set & hired me. Asked if I was gonna work tonight, told him I would be in tomorrow so that I was more rested. I stopped by Barely Legal & they hired me for dayshift again saying that I need to tone my mid section. But I'm ok w/ that now. I'll try day shift at Barely Legal & then work nights at Vu.

The one thing I did notice is that every single club I walked into was empty -barely anyone. The only two clubs that had maybe a couple custies & that was it in them were Barely Legal & Babes. So I'm still nervous at this point but oh well. Here goes fingers crossed. I'm here till the 12th & I got bills to pay. So I'll start work tomorrow -possibly do both clubs. We'll see what time I wake up.

For those of you guys down here where are you guys at? I'm dancing under the name Dorian (think oscar wilde) at Deja Vu & Barely Legal now. :-)

^ call hustler and ask for the haunted hoteles number and hope their not booked.

Thanx, Michelle! Wound up doing Air BnB instead. Very happy I did, too. My host has been very cool, very helpful & kinda easy on the eyes as well. :-)

Oh, I was at BL last night. I saw your audition. You have a pretty face but yeah, they're getting pickier about weight these days and I knew they'd give you a dayshift contract, unfortunately. The hair may also be a dealbreaker for a lot of places. It was a very slow night last night, but today is Thursday so it'll be better. I'm not sure why you decided to travel during this time, it's notoriously underwhelming financially.

Don't go to Rick's Saloon. It's the worst club ever. Badly managed and in a bad location.

Nice! Wish, I woulda known who you were so I could've said hello! What did you look like? And thank you, btw!

My hair is constantly changing since my normal job is a hair salon job. I used to have dreads when I came down here once & it didn't seem an issue then -so I guess I had assumed the teal wouldn't matter just as long as I wasn't rocking my graphics on the clipped down area like I usually do. Oh well, at least I had assumed correctly about the graphics at the least.

I'm going into Vu tonight so I've got my fingers crossed. My home base just outside Chi has been hit or miss as well. Which is weird cuz the city of Chicago is usually in season in the summer months. But a former coworker of mine there has informed me that they have been too swamped by too many girls & too little custies as well.

I haven't been able to tack a strip trip vacay since last year & Dallas I found out was rather disappointing in Janurary. Seems I keep getting bad luck on my travel times. I was initially gonna travel mid april -but a former boss in Chi suggested I try for Jazzfest. So much for that.


Btw, how is day shift at Barely Legal? Is it worth a try or ?

It's slow, but worth it. Not huge money but good for a couple hundred. Best time to travel here are Jan - beginning of April, and September - October. Jazzfest gets out late, like the last band goes onstage at 11pm, people are already drunk and it's way on the other side of town. Also the crowd is a lot of families and couples. I've done three Jazzfests and it's always the same.

If you come back, I'm super tall (around 6'4" in my shoes), I wear pink or red lingerie, and have very long strawberry blonde hair.

Nola seriously shouldn't be so effin picky these days, I mean seriously wtf are they expecting? Playmate material pffft. I too had the same exact rough luck down there back in Oct 2013 & still don't understand the pickiness from the dancers I saw actually working. I'm fucking gorgeous & ya am thicker than most avg dancers BUT I also make money. Brandylynn hang in there hun, I'm sure the vu will be better than the rest anyways :) Oh ya & if you are at BL, avoid that night mngr Libby like the plague. She'll fire you for "needing to be more toned" or at least thats what happened to me.

I'm shocked that BL hired me, tbh. I was 29 then, very much legal.

Yeah, I'm almost 5'10" and 128lbs and I had to try three times to get into Hustler. At BL we did just move a ton of night girls onto dayshift for not meeting standard. As I said before, Libby is the GM and it's impossible to avoid her.

Oh man. I was going to audition at Hustler, but now I might reconsider. I'm 5'10" and around 128 too. Kinda wirey and boney actually. You had to try out three times? Damn! They're ruthless.

I was going to audition at DJV last night but they don't open until 7, so I went over to Babe's Cabaret and they let me work that evening. First night ever as a stripper! I am beyond honored to join your ranks ladies.

I had a conversation with the day bartender at Centerfolds today and she said places are getting picky because they are having some adult video/entertainment awards there sometime this year I think she said. I guess that means they'll have feature dancers and they want the other dancers to be up to that standard? I dunno.

Anyway, hope you other ladies are enjoying jazz fest and doing well.
