    I dont know whats going on in your club, but I've been trying to get into a club in and around detroit for the past 3 weeks or so and no one will let me in, its always "fill out an application and we'll call you" and they never call.

    is it like, really dead or something?

    Detroit is terrible right now and I think it will be for a while. My house fees have DOUBLED and my income has cut in half in the last year.

    The Dearborn clubs were hiring a while ago - I don't know if they still are. I had thought they'd gotten raided (heard through the grapevine.) At any rate there were some ads on craigslist looking for dancers. Beware I've heard some bad feedback from dancers in that area.

    I don't think anyone is doing much business around here.

    Last I heard Allstars, Crazyhorse and Penthouse were pretty busy. You may also want to try the Greektown clubs - Collesium and Bouzuki club.

    You may want to try some smaller clubs too. I can't think of any off the top of my head at the moment - I've just gotten up.

    See who's got an amateur night I think Trumps is Sunday (used to be) and so is the Pantheon, Cheetahs should still be Tuesday I think Allstars (could be Crazy horse) is Wednesday.

    Don't forget you need a dance card to work in Detroit unless you work at Flight Club or Penthouse (I hear they are fighting the dance card thing in court so for the time being dancers aren't required to have one.) But you can try Amateur Night and hook with an agent and they can take care of that for you if you decide to work someplace other than those two places.

    I've heard Penthouse is riddled with extra's - second hand information though.

    Good luck.

    I work at bouzoukis and we now have a 200 dollar freelance fee for outside dancers. Regular tip out starts at 100 on busy nights. Not to be rude, but we really do not need any more dancers right now. Eros is hiring.

    i work at flight club, and ive worked at penthouse...You ABSOLUTELY need a dance card. I was duped into believing the whole, "we are fighting the licensing process, so right now you dont need one." and guess what, we got raided and now Im PART of the process....sucks.

    flight club, is busy sometimes, but lots of girls do extras there, and definitely at penthouse.

    and even when its slow my friends and i still make money because we hustle.

    i like that bar because there are lots of 35-50 business types straight from the airport. i hear it all the time, and they just love me for some reason.

    WOW!!!!! I didn't know you need a card to work Penthouse. That's awful then, a lot of girls must've gotten in trouble being mislead like that from management.

    That's a bunch of BS. That's so unfair. I knew a couple of girls over the summer/fall who were working over there - one since moved to California and the other isn't dancing at all anymore.

    Anyway, goodluck to anyone dancing in this area - it really is tough right now. I know some gorgeous talented dancers who aren't making nearly what they used to.

    Last year was the last time I worked at the Flight Club. I work my "career" job full-time, and used to enjoy dancing on the side. I keep in touch with a dancer who works at FC and PH, trying to see when I want to go back. It sounds like things are really horrible right now. Not to even mention the money, but to consider what dancers are doing to make money--there really aren't jobs for dancers as my friend says it, just prostitutes. The dancer I know used to be a top earner, and now only relies on regulars. She doesn't even hustle. She's lost some regulars due to "dancers" offering extras for $25..it's really grotesque. I highly recommend staying out of Detroit. When I danced a lot of stuff went on around me, but now it's pure desperation, and the guys know it. The difference now, I don't know of any dancer who would have easily commanded $500 a shift at FC a few years ago WITHOUT extras who could do anywhere near that now-provided she danced, no extras, no RELYING on regulars-today. More likely, she'd be paying house out of her own pocket. Sorry so negative, but I'm really mad about the changes, and mostly due to dancer extras/greed-totally ruined the business.

    I work outside of Detroit because I don't want to get a dance card and to me dancing in Detroit is just a whole different ball game. Anyway my club is a $50 house fee, no tip out to anyone, (it's included in the house fee so you really don't tip anyone out) and I'm making great money. We need a couple more week night girls so you can PM me for more info if you want. My suggustion to you is to get out of Detroit and work the cities around Detroit. The fees are generally lower and in my experience the money is the same and sometimes better.

    Detroit is BAD NEWS. I've danced in the area for over four years, and it's extras central. Especially the FC and PH. 90% of dancers at the FC and PH are doing HJs and BJs, and more as well.

    If you don't do extras, you don't make money. Period. And if you do extras, be prepared to pay out the bouncers big time. They are just as dirty as the custys, and command a large amt. of shut-up money. The owner of these clubs is a sick, sick greedy man, who would look at a piece of sh-t with more respect than anyone working at his clubs.

    My advice, work in Canada! It's five min. to the border!

    PM me if you want the low down on Detroit clubs or clubs around detroit...
    I'd grab my trumpet and I'd do a stripper sound, like the old Louis Armstrong, real raspy. And the people would go nuts! Then I knew that the sexual, sensual, guttural sound, that throbbing sound, is where it's at.
