    Default SXSW Austin

    Hey all! I'm going to be in Austin for SXSW and plan on working for at least 1 week. Does anyone know what the hiring process is like around this time? Are they OK with traveling dancers? I'm leaning towards Palazio. Thanks!

    Whenever somebody tells me he is from Austin I already know they are going to be either super odd or really creepy/grabby/perverted. They do spend well though in my limited experience dealing with them. However, I've never danced in Austin so I really don't know.

    if this aint the truth.. haha. i've worked during the last 3 sxsw and it's nothing to write home about. i'd rather just go out and take advantage of all the free booze and food!

    the good customers in austin are mostly the ones from out of town traveling on business, or the tech business guys

    Dude we have them in MTL. And we also have hipsters from all over North America who come for our summer festivals. I treat them like furniture.

    yep, every once in a while the furniture eats to many mushrooms at the festival and spends a lot of money but they are mostly useless.

    LOL, I love posts about Austin hipsters But true -I never made any significant amount during SXSW. It's average. The same is F1. I know girls coming to work for F1 expecting a lot, but in the past few years it's been very average.

    I made 5,000 during F1 week-end in Montreal. I just assumed F1 was money everywhere.

    The SXSW I worked at Palazio a few years ago was average, there seemed more "money potential" but not money spending. It was the same money wise as every other day. Also F1 was worse money wise!! All the damn cubans and internationals just want sex.. I managed to make $1500 from a guy who literally tried to make out with me for an hour and didn't speak english, it was a horrible horrible experience. I will never work F1 again. In general international customers don't spend big on clean dancers.

    Austin customers can be money and they can be average, I agree they can be more grabby. Houston guys are worse tho and mostly want hookers and my fav. guys are from Dallas.. least touching, biggest money. (obviously they hope for more tho)

    It's true that some international and European clientele just want sex. Anytime a customer is Italian, German, Russian or Slovak I'm like ummmm what do you think this place is before I dance for them. I have made money off of them, but I've also had conflict . I'm all for a quick sale but not at the cost of having to physically fight someone off. This F1 I mostly made $ off Americans, Brits and Canadians and young Arab guys who all get stripclubs. So maybe I was lucky.
