Does anyone know about the clubs in northwest Indiana?
From what I know (which was from 2003-06)...
**Pandora's - Gary - Dive rocker bar.... teeny stage, crappy co-workers, definitely extras going on... I never saw any per say, but I thought I walked by one. Anywho, teeny dance area. They take x of each dance. Dances start at 20$ for 1. No dj, just a jukebox & no you can't play your own cds there. You have to collect 3$ for each time you go on stage. You have to tip out the bartender, waitress, & bouncer. And pay a small house. You get money from guys buying you drinks. Didn't really have to make a schedule - well you did, but there weren't a mandatory amount of days to work. Thong bottoms & pasties over nipples. LOTS OF MILEAGE EXPECTED & ALLOWED!
**Rising Sun - Lake Station(?) - Dive bar. Heard it was under new management or ownership... Anyways, you have to pay house fee, and sell x amount of drinks (which you don't get any money from). They pretty much sell 2 for 15$ all night. Or 1 for 10. I think they take 5$ for every dance. Stage isn't bad, fact I like it... two poles... With REALLY high ceilings/poles... great for pole action! The stage is narrow till where the second pole is then it fans out to a 1/2-3/4 circle. Pretty dead though. You don't have to tip anyone out here. Mileage isn't allowed - you're suppose to move in a different position/spot every 3-5 seconds & you aren't suppose to grind. And the dances are right across from the dj who counts. I think you have to work a minimum of 3-4 days a week, set schedule. Thong club & pasties.
**De Ja Vu - Hammond, I dunno.
**De Ja Vu - Lake Station - Only went as a custy before I started dancing. LOADS OF YOUNGSTERS..... AND HARDLY ANY SPENDERS! I know there are dj's. Two poles on the stage & girls go up in twos. Pasties & thong bottoms. Other than that, I dunno.
**Wiggles - Hammond - Dunno.
**Kenny Mays - Hammond - Dunno
**INDUSTRIAL STRIP - Hammond - From what I remember (which I only worked two nights) there's a big money potential & easy to get (selling 3 dances for 65$). They were remodeling when I was working there, so I have no clue the new set up. Anyways, you had to pay house fee - pretty big. Tip out lots (housemom, dj, bouncers, waitress... etc blah blah). FULL GRIND, FULL GROPE, FULL NUDE!*! Well, almost,... You still have to have pasties on your nipples. Guy can touch you any where........ cept your crotch & ass crack. The dance floor was on the second floor, so you and custy have to walk up there... Bouncer or whomever keeps count of how long you're in there. Private booths with chair, hand sanitizer, & curtain.... Oh, HAHA, you get free tanning! Lol, they have a tanning booth set up. Obviously, I already stated there's a house mom. Very busy (back in the day at least), and lots of willing spenders. I just wasn't ok with a - dance area so private, b- having my crotch exposed, c- high mileage, d-guys groping me. You have to make a set schedule of min. 4 days each week. VERY SUPER HIGH MILEAGE!
^^ I think that's all? If there's one you want to know about, I can tell ya! Though, I think working in NWIN is a bitch & very much not worth it. You should just go over to Illinois... Jimmy's (Chicago Heights), Club 390 (Chicago Heights), Skybox (Harvey I think?), Club O (Harvey? I dunno, it's off Halsted & Skybox isn't far off from it).
It's just not worth it in IN... Especially when you can go across state line & make waaaaaaaay more for waaaaaaaaaay less effort/mileage. :D
