    Default How's the Dolphin 2 doin'? (portland)

    I'm looking for a new place to audition, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me how things are going at the Dolphin. It's a ways from home, so I'm looking at a $30 cab ride if I end up working there. I'd like to be able to bring home about $200 a night. Is that doable after tip out and cab?

    Also...this is kind of a weird question...can you rock a small bush there? Very small and trimmed, but natural looking. I like to keep it that way because I'm very petite and look very young, and it's just creepy to me to have little to no hair going on. I've noticed most of the girls there are shaved to little or nothing. Will they tell me I have to shave it off to work there?

    Thing shave been so dead around PDX...I'd just really like to find a place I can make at least $200 a shift. If anyone has any other suggestions, that'd be great too. I start auditioning next week.

    I am LOLing at the hair question, but no, you don't have to be bald there. I'm assuming you mean shaved underneath but with a patch in front, yes?

    I wouldn't guarantee money to you anywhere, and a $30 cab ride is steep -- are you really looking at $60 for transportation every night? Hopefully you could find friends/coworkers who live near you.

    That being said, it's fairly reliable out there during the week. Weekends are hit-or-miss and can suck when filled with young kids drinking and not buying dances. It is best for more experienced dancers. I think it is worth a shot, but again I would hesitate to tell you to go anywhere in PDX that's going to cost you $60 in cab fares every time you work when there are so many clubs all over the city, some of which have to be closer to you.

    Susan, thanks for the info. I could actually get a ride there, so I'd only be paying $30 for the ride home.

    I'd like to try working weekday nights there. Do you think $200-250 is doable?

    oh, and what are the fees like there?

    Edit: And yes, I meant shaved below with a little patch up front.

    Fees are free for day shift if there by 11, $15 after, $20 before 5pm, $25 until 8, $30 8-9pm. Tipout is $10 minimum to DJ, $10 minimum to bouncers. So you're looking at $40-$50 minimum. $200-$250 is most certainly doable provided you're not a minor and are pretty capable of working the floor. I will give you the caveat that I consider that a pretty slow shift there (day or night) but that I've heard dancers complaining about doing poorly lately (as in sub-$100 shifts), so, while I find it consistent, that isn't holding true across the board. There are usually 15-20 dancers at night there on the weeknights.

    The DII is worth a shot as are several other clubs in town but in general I am hearing a lot of girls complaining about money right now and have seen a lot of clubhopping lately, so just work on your selling game. It is a pretty nice club, mostly nice girls and staff. Good luck to you and say hi if I'm there when you come in.
