I have been frequenting clubs for about 20 years, mostly in one city, and lately I've notices that tipping at the stage has almost dried up. As a rule, if I am watching a dancer on stage (i.e. I am not talking to a dancer at my table and am focus totally on her), I will tip a dancer once or twice during her set. If I am at the stage, it is because I will be tipping the dancer who a) I already know or b) I want to get to know. But lately it seems I am one of the few (sometimes the only one) tipping at all. What gives? Is it the economy? Are customers becoming bigger jerks? Or has the emphasis on private dances pushed tipping off the agenda?

Seriously, I know from your postings on another site that you and I go to different clubs. As for stage tipping trends, I've noticed differences scattered across the board, depending on area, and stageside interaction.
I don't sweat
