Stage Etiquette -help please!
Hey there,
I'm kind of new to this forum and I like it a lot! Anyway I read a post once about "dancer etiquette" and remember one mentioned "no-no"...and that's when a dancer goes and sits near a group of custy's when you're on-stage performing.
Well this happened to me today! A few guys were sitting by the stage and were tipping out to girls who got on stage. I got tips from them last time I was on stage and they also tipped the girl before me...they had money on the table too so I expected them to tip me. Instead, two girls came to sit down and talk to the guys the whole time I was on stage (one of them with their back towards me)!! THEN one of the girls was after me, so she just crawled from where she was to the stage!
So rude?! What would be the best way to approach this if this should happen again? Advice? Thanks in advance!

First, find out if your club has a rule about this. While it's an old school stripper rule - not all clubs care.
If your club does care inform the manager which dancers are doing this.

Just checked today and yeah, they don't have a 'rule' for this. It's basically a free-for-all.

^ Really?I've worked at 7-8 clubs in the last year and haven't encountered this. There has always kind of been a "stage is her time" rule. Some of my customers let me turn into a customer myself by giving me money to tip the other girls and no one seems to mind this of course.

Even if I was just on stage and was discussing lap dances up there, I STILL wait for the guy to leave the stage.
It doesn't bother me so much when girls do this (especially when they encourage the guy to tip), but I know it bothers some girls, so I don't do it.
I guess, if it happens again, go talk to the guys by the stage when that girl is up there! lol
Or just talk to the girl and tell her that that wasn't cool and she could have at least taken him somewhere else.

this is where slamming heels and loudly saying "hi" and stuff are actually a good idea. get his attention. get him to the stage. a lot of custies like ballsy girls who do that stuff.

Thanks for the replies. I guess I've been taking Avery's advice... I notice only a few girls do this and so, I take it as it's okay to approach custy's when they're up on stage lol. Otherwise I "treat others as I would like to be treated".
Re: Stage Etiquette -help please!
I've only ever worked at one club where we weren't supposed to bother guys at the stage. If you want their attention, fight for it (not literally) do floor work right in front of them, they WILL notice you and in my experience that's what they want from you anyways for a tip.
