I apologize for the short answer, but I have just arrived home from a long trip and I am tired. But to answer a few specific questions and comments.
Yes, my choice of words was not the best. What I meant by "good customer" was not "preferable," or "better than average." By "good" I meant the opposite of "bad" -- a customer who does not cause problems, does not interfere with a dancer's ability to make good money, etc.
Area in which I live: In and about the Grand Rapids, Mid-Michigan area.
More specifically:
Bullwinkles - Near Grand Rapids MI
(No longer open - burned down some years ago)
Sensations - Grand Rapids MI
Parkway Tropics - Grand Rapids MI
Deja Vu - Lansing MI
How much I spend: I stay one to two hours, spending about $10 on cover charge, $20 per hour on dancer tips, and another $5 per hour to waitresses. There have been visits where I have tipped more than this, but never less.
I typically sit at the tipping rail if there is room. I usually come to a club in mid-afternoon or early evening, not for any other reason than that is when I have free time. Several times it has seemed that the dancers almost outnumber the customers.
I should manage a better reply tomorrow, but I do have to say I certainly did not expect such a lively discussion based on my posting.
