Hey everyone! Has anyone ever been into the Peek-A-Boo Lounge, or Cleopatra's in the Palmetto, Bradenton, Sarasota area? I am not looking to dance, only looking to see if they are hiring for a housemom or dancer manager......but I don't know anything about the clubs, and can't really find anything excpet how much they charge, dress code...etc..etc...
Thanks ladies!

Re: Florida Clubs?
Sorry MissB,
you know i am in Florida, but far from there. I am East Coast! You could always call directory and speak with Owner/management at the clubs, see if they have a positin open for you. If they sound excited and answer some of your questions on the phone, go check them out !
In Lauderdale, my GF called a club and they were very polite, she called just before opening when they had time to talk, went, got a job. The club i came from when i worked in Lauderdale, before moving more north FL.
Lotsa luck....worth the try, can't hurt. Or just take the trip. You are in Florida now right? Pamela 8)

Re: Florida Clubs?
How IS the work situation in Florida anyhow..? Do u need a sherriffs card or do they make you fill out employment forms asking for social security etc.? Or can one "freelance" just walking in and pay floor fees and start peeling? What is protocol?

Re: Florida Clubs?
I have ben in the Peek A Boo Lounge in Bradenton about 4 years ago. It had a steady neighborhood crowd and they ran a buy 2 dances get a free monogrammed Peek A Boo Mug with your drink in it. Small club but probably worth checking out.

Re: Florida Clubs?
Hi Ladies! Pamela....yeah, I know basic info on the club, but you know the best way to find out what is REALLY going on is to talk to the dancers.....
Leigh...I moved to Florida about 2 weeks ago, so I have never danced here. I do hear they are opening a new club between Tampa and Orlando....but I doubt anyone on this board would be interested...not their speed.
Tina, thanks...I will check it out!

Re: Florida Clubs?
:-XI think I really should bite my lip on this one~I have never been to those clubs before so I honestly can't comment on them~but I can tell you the ones I worked over here in Clearwater and on St. Pete Beach~Grrrrrrrrr~we were fighting to make the cheapo's pay! The D.J. would literally stop in the middle of the songs & threaten to not start up the music again & we would sit on the side of the stage until the guys would start putting money up for us!! It was freakin pathetic. Some of the guys even had the nerve to try & get us to tip other girls on stage with the tips we barely made that night ourselves~I wanted to smack em all. DONT let this discourage you though. Like I said~I've never been in that part of town and it's different everywhere you go. Djoser is a DJ in Daytona area and seems pretty happy there so far~so it just depends on the area (@ least~thats just my opinion!) Good luck~I hope you do better than me!! ;)

Re: Florida Clubs?
We do have a new club not far from me called 'Center Folds.' I have not checked it out...yet. They put it in a good area alot say. Right where the big companies head out after work. I will try to find more info. As for me i frequent the Inner Room alot in Merritt Island. I like it, knew the owner for years. Nude. And Tootsies is fine, not a big money maker. (my opinion). Bare assets....hmmmm, not very good reviews. I have been there too though, and worked. I am only familiar with my area, as i came up not long ago from Lauderdale, so i am getting the feel as well. There is money to be made here. I do great for what i need to live, i am still a fan of the 'Inner Room' however.
PS we have two 'Inner Rooms' close by. Cocoa Bch, Merritt Island. Pamela

Re: Florida Clubs?
>:( >:( FLORIDA SUX!!
I just worked last night in So. Fl for the first time in a while. What a joke! I bounced at 11 (started 8:30) w/ $30. My friend stayed until 2 for a whopping $100. Note to men, it's not a social club. Yes, I am hustling you. I don't want to be your friend, and I have no trouble finding guys who "want to take me somewhere nice". I won't even mention that I pay the club to listen to this crap. Any girls who have a line on clubs nationally or internationally that pay, I'd love a "heads up". Thanx for letting me bitch. Make lots of money!

Re: Florida Clubs?
I understand how you feel. Clubs are likethat in all 50 states. I made $10 after tip outs yesterday, $60 the day before, and $435 and $262 the other 2 days I worked this week.
It all depends on the type of clientele who comes in and howmany girls are working.
You have to take the good with the bad in dancing nowadays. Don't walk out. Stay and try to get all you can. If you made the $100 your friend made that extra $70 would hav paid another bill or could have gone in your savings.
Money is up and down in dancing nowadays. Just hang in there and keep your options open for other clubs. The next time you go to work you might make $300 or more. Many clubs in large cities don't do as well on Friday and Saturday nights as the club attracts the younger clientele and not the older customer who has more to spend.

Re: Florida Clubs?
God how true that is!! You all are so right~Florida is a pain in the ass. I did hear that Tampa clubs do well~like Mons Venus and a couple others......but it's just too far for me to travel with kids and sharing one car with hubby & all. Florida's full of cheapo's......The guys want to sit & watch for free~Grrrrrrrrrrr......

Re: Florida Clubs?
i work in north florida and my money is always consistant and good. tampa is pretty full service in most of the clubs, wont work there. last time i tried a club in tamp, not nude mind you. a girl had a condom in her booty shorts for handy acess... yuck i left

Re: Florida Clubs?
Hi all,
We are going to have some good comments and bad with every club. I have worked Florida clubs since i started dancing. Came up from Lauderdale to central Fl. I love it!!! I have made a great clientel, sure slow moving at first...You have to stick with the slower times, faster nights will come. I thought i would get no place working as a dancer at first, then i met a few good guys who are regulars 3 or 4 nights a week. They are the BIG spenders. Other times i hustle, and build more of a smaller clientel. I am in a good area, (for me,) as i have met alot of guys and ladies who come to see me. I have friends call and say Cali stinks, or Vegas, it's all about the clientel with them, and keeping that clientel while making new ones. I cater to alot of engineers and doctors that know me on a working level. One guy is a friend however with nothing better to do but throw his money around..(.Lol CallGuy.) Yes though i would agree with out my clientel it would suck for me too. Pamela
And i agree..i cater mostly to the older crowd, younger guys come in but don't stay long or spend half as much. And i only do stage shows. Can be long hard work. Well worth it when the end of the night comes.

Re: Florida Clubs?
LEIGH_LANDON I was offered a job doing topless dancing in a cage in central Florida recently. You can walk in (if they like your sytyle,) and work for them. No specific hours required, simply fill out an application, and get up there. I watched the girls for some time, and there is a plastic jug hanging down for tips off the cage, always a big guy standing under the cage, my guess security. Seemed each girl had 20 minutes on then another took over. Looked like fun, but tiring. Not alot of money to be had, since you can't really request a certain dance. They do get an hourly wage however. Different, fun to watch, i don't think it's my cup of tea. But hey.. i will try anything once. And it's perfectly legal, Florida's finest (police) were watching the action. Pamela

Re: Florida Clubs?
Hey Ladies, I'm going to be in the Crestview area the last week of January and in the Sebastian area the 2nd week of February on business, any club suggestions? I'm a sensitive guy who is not looking for "extras", just fun and conversation. I love to spend money on the right lady. From the sounds of the posts, you could USE a guy who wants to spend a little money. ;)

Re: Florida Clubs?
Welcome to Sunny Florida soon Chuck, Hope our weather for you is nice, and you find a nice club to entertain you while on business. And a guy like you is thre kind of guy dancers love!

Re: Florida Clubs?
I'm really only familiar with Tootsies in North Miami because they book features. There was a surprising amount of money floating around this club! However, contact levels were pretty high even by the NorthEast standards I'm used to. I do know from talking to Florida dancers that Tampa clubs are regularly locking horns with local politicians and cops and that club busts are frequent - NOT a good place to be right now.

Re: Florida Clubs?
Hi Sexyred,
i came up from living in Lauderdale for many years. I danced at Thee Doll House. I liked it alot. I had to travel a bit to get there, but the money made up my expense in traveling. Lots of good looking ladies just doing their busines. Club manager was fantastic. I worked 5 nights a week, built up a clientel quickly. I can say that is a good club (for me) to work at, no problems. I have since then moved up more north, into central Florida, found 3 great clubs that will take a lady who wants to show them she can work a pole, stage and a room. No lap or VIP required. Topless and nude. Great place.
You know when i speak of me and my jobs, i truly love doing the work i do, and that reflects on my personality when i go to work. I am a real ham and being in front of an audience is the most comfortable feeling for me! I don't like to be alone much. I love the company of men, and work very hard to constantly build my repeat customers. Putting myself on a scale of 1-10 i can't; i look like hell one night and feel like the best looking women in the world the next. So if i want to dress like a 10 to get my foot in the door, and then get inside and keep up my looks meaning hair, skin, weight clothing it's tough. I am just me and hate to put a womens looks on a scale. I will be very honest. Whats a 9 to me is a 3 to management, all to confusing. I am average, as is most women i work with. But we know how to work, and seems alot of us love it. Sounding up beat is my personality, and i refuse to hang out with people who are depressing, as i may fall into their way of thinking as well! It's all a state of mind with dancing! Thats why almost any lady can be a dancer these days. If you are happy, smile, flirt, pay attention to the guys. Actually like them!!! They pay your bills, i think alot of dancers will go far! There is money to be had out there in this business. And i am a happy up beat person, who looks for the good in everyone. Even if a guy gets cocky with me, i smile at him and tell him, i got his name and i will be back for more, and wink my eye as i turn away! Looking at him as i am walking, now i have his attention (most.) I will chat up some ladies (customers) and be making eye contact with him off and on, oh he sees me.
Just me....sorry for the long drawn out message. Just felt the need to explain myself, and who i am. Pamela
PS i think we have nice clubs scattered around the state. And not so nice ones! ;)
