Well, there are some primary differences between SC's and other forms of entertainment. If I go to the movie theatre, I don't have to sit through Zathura to see Walk The Line. If I go to a concert, I don't have to sit through Ashlee Simpson to see Megadeth. I have some resemblance of choice in those decisions. I do not have any choice regarding the stage rotation at my local club. If I did, half the girls there would not be on it.
I know this might be a bit sobering for some, but unless were talking about a stage only club, most guys in attendance at SC's are not there to see a "show", and are only interested in spending their money on dancers of their choosing. One more dollar towards a girl they are not interested in means one less dollar for a girl they are interested in. I hate to use the term "meat market", but that's about the truth.
Needless to say, I find it more than coincidental around my parts, that of the three local clubs, the one with the most ON stage tipping, is the one that doesn't have a tip walk.
