My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
Well, I know that I appreciate it when people give good stories about their experiances at clubs and I recently got home from Dallas, so I decided to let everyone know how it went.
I got there on a Sunday to check out some clubs. I went to the Lodge, Baby Dolls, and the Men's Club. Fist off I liked the Lodge the best. It seemed like the classiest place, very nice, and I didnt see anything going on that I was uncomfortable with. So I decided to give it a go there first.
I was told by the night manager to come back between 11am and 2pm the next day to audition.
I got there, everyone was very nice. I did a real short audition on a side stage for the manager, just had to dance a round and take my clothes off.
I worked that day. Dances are 20, there was no house fee. You tip the DJ and the house mom, as much as you like, no minimum. I was told if I get there and am on the floor by 11am, I have no house fee and get free lunch, GREAT FOOD!!! So I worked. It is white collar crowd, everyone was very nice. It is topless, lap dances. Custys can touch but not really any important parts. Most were respectfull and kept there hands off my cha chas, butt and thong area. A few tried to get a little cha cha feel. lol. I figured it was slow because it was a Monday day so I stayed till Midnight. Total I made about 400 after tip out.
Tuesday was about the same, a little slower it seemed. I only stayed till 7, and made about 300.
Wed was pretty bad, once again I only stayed till 7 and made only 200!
I didnt work Thursday or Friday as they have a great little comedy club not far from the club so I went there to take a little break and enjoy myself.
I went back Friday and didnt to well at all. I only made 40 all day.
This is what I have gathered. Sunday and Mondays are the best. Friday and Sat are the worst. Night shift makes more money but there are a lot more girls.
Everyone was VERY friendly, mom, girls, management, custys. I could not have asked for a nicer crew. I absoulutly LOVED the club. I wish I had made more money though.
Keep in mind that I did go down during fair week, so it was slow. I didnt realize it was fair week when I was going till I got there. :(
There are 5 stages, you dance all them at night, 3 during the day is the most I saw. Stage tips are not very good, a lot of lunch eaters. But I did make a little. The food was EXCELLENT. the dressing room, bathrooms, were very clean. Mom was very helpful. Girls were super nice. The have a gym upstairs free for the girls and on Tues, and Thur a personal trainer, free. He is supposed to be really good.
Most all the girls were 7-10. There were a few that looked out of place. Most wree gorgeous.
You cant wear shorts here, you need skirts or dresses.
Girls dont really dance on stage. They mostly wiggle around. They do have feature shows that the girls put on but I dont know much about that.
the main stage is large, very nice, no pole. the second stage is really small with a pole but you cant really do anything on it. Same thing with the third stage, small with pole buut not enough room to do anything. The fourth stage is SUPER small, no pole. And the last stage is small with a pole. This is the most likley to do any thing with but there are tables to close to really swing or anything.
I really liked the club, I wish I would have mad emore moeny though.
If you have any questions, thinking about giong, feel free to ask me and I will try my best to answer them.

Yay for the Lodge, glad you think it's killer too- I got hired there the 18th. I didn't know about the gym, I'll have to check that out. I think there's a tanning bed there for our use as well, and free dance class sat's at 7. As for the features, you earn points for doing em- points you can cash in for no house fees, stage skips, ect. Oh yeah, and they have a lil shop for those 'oh damn I forgot my X' moments, and you get a discount on kitchen items.
You gonna make this a habit or were you just visiting?
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
Cool, I've wondered about the Lodge too. Thanks for the review.
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
I might go back in the next few weeks. The tanning bed is broken ..
They do have feature classes and they have costumes and props for the feature shows.
The point system is complicated but basically you get points for showing up on time, selling champeigns, vip memberships, bottles of wine, ... all kinds of things and then can trade them in for all kinds of things.
I had a really good experiance there and would love to go back.
I know most girls dont like to post earnings or they arent very honest .. but if someone else could post what they make it may be helpful as I went on a bad week .. fair week. That is the main reason I am going back .. to see if the fair hurt business much.
If the next time I go down I make more money I will probably head down about one week a month or something .. not sure.
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
Np, I'll share. I went in to audition, stayed after they gave me the thumbs-up/orientation, figured it was about... 9-10 when I started working, and that was a Weds night and it was actually pretty busy (I believe the fair was still on but not sure). I earned 325, but unfortunately it was funny money so after exchange I had 260, after giving DJ and HM 10 apiece I went home with 240. Again though I only worked 5 hours tops (and had NFC what I was doing lol), hope that helps ya.
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
Thanks. that does help. The 18 was fair week. I was there that day. Are you Aisan? Small waist? I think we spoke. I only remember one girl getting hired that day. If so I am Abby.
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
Interesting. Your week sounds about like mine at the Men's Club. The clubs sound similar in clientele and contact levels. Monday and Tuesday nights were very good -- conventions in town, club was crowded, dances pretty easy to sell. The rest of the week has been slow, and money mediocre...no better than I'd make at home, or a little worse. Thanks for posting your experience.
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
No I'm not Asian at all, I'm a 5'7 cracker, 130 lbs, mid-back blond hair. Wore a black halter thing with sequins up top, see-thru midriff and loaner black skirt, gold lame criss-cross strappy shoes... What about you, I wonder if I saw you? Might have missed each other b/c I didn't do stage, and lucked out and spend most of the night in VIP. But hey when/if you come back I'll be glad to meetcha! :]

wow, tanning beds, gym, and classes??? thats what the club offers? that sounds like a resort, im suprised they dont offer spa and massage! wow. thats so cool
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
Good luck at the Lodge ladies. It is my all-time favorite club. I spent a lot of time there in December...dancers were top notch and the food was excellent.
Very nice place...
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
Wow old thread, but OK lol
Well AFAIK the bed's still broken and they discontinued the classes... I'm a lil dated tho, moved to Men's Club around New Year's. They have a working bed, plus sauna, pool, and massage guy *grin* I'm a happy camper. But the Lodge will always be dear to me- a great club, and my first club!
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
OK, I want to move to Dallas.....
Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas

Re: My Trip, The Lodge in Dallas
Not sure, I don't have any so it didn't come up. I have noticed a few girls have tramp stamps but not much else.
