    Default Chicago clubs?

    I'll be in Chicago this summer and I plan to dance while I'm in town. Can anyone tell me about city and surburban clubs? I left a couple years ago because the clubs kept getting raided and my $1000 nights turned into $100 nights, I wonder if this is still the case...

    The Admiral is still there of course. It has the classiest act in town, and good earnings potential providing you "measure up" to their hiring standards - big hooters are a plus since this club brings in features semi-regularly and attracts most of the boob hounds in the area. Crazy Horse 2 is also still there, and has very good earnings potential since the customer base is mostly 3 piece suit business guys. However, the owners must have a thing about "Barbie Dolls" since virtually all the dancers working there fit the Barbie Doll mold.

    i work at skybox outside chicago and right now business is terrible tons of college kids in for drink specials the club i work at used to be really good. Ive been working there for 2 years house fees were just raised $220-$300 a night its highway robbery. there are new drink specials mon thru thursday FREE beer and $1 on the week ends with a $10 dollar cover so its turning in to a local bar. As of right now i know all the chicago clubs are hurting except club o in harvey but its very high mileage there. I mean very high. HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!

    I know for sure that I wouldn't fit into the Admiral scene, though I may give Crazy horse/VIP a try. Thank you Melonie and Kelly.

    Hey just curious as to why you think you wouldn't fit in at the Admiral? I have worked there in the past (it was the first place I worked and won the Thursday night ameteur contest). I'm thinking you might have a misconception of the place... That's my all time favorite strip club.. you really should check it out.

    Do you need a permit to work in Chicago like you need in Vegas?

    Nope.. u don't need a permit. The Admiral actually considers you an employee, give you a paycheck, and offer you benefits. Club O and Industrial Strip consider you an "independent contractor". Some of the suburbs are having problems with local ordinances right now, but as of the moment no permit is needed to work in Chicago or the suburbs.

    You may be right Phoebe, I've never visited The Admiral, only heard about it. Mostly horror stories from girls of certain ethnicities not being able to make much money working there. Is the amateur contest the audition to get hired there?

    Yeah, they have an amateur contest every Thursday with, I think it might still be a $300 prize. If u win u get hired to work the next day, if you don't they'll contact u they say. I don't know anything about the ethnic girl horror stories but I'm pretty American looking so I dunno. Good Luck

    Mercury_Deep: I worked at The Admiral for a few months last year, and was consistently a top earner, despite the fact that I'm half Hispanic, half Arab. Girls of all ethnicities do well there, assuming that they are upbeat, attractive, and personable. Don't let the rumors scare you -- they're just that :Rumors!

    I currently live and work in the Chicago area, so I'll try to answer questions:
    I work at VIP's(formerly Crazy Horse 2), and earn consistently good money, depsite the fact that I'm exotic, not a "Barbie" type. In fact, I'd say I have a slight advantage, since I can easily differentiate myself. Dancers here average $400-$900/night,house-fees are $100, and tip-out is 20% of earnings. Gown club, no-contact.
    The Admiral Theatre is another good option: Nude, $10 dances, no-contact, but lower earnings potential than VIP's. All types of girls work here -- most are natural. House is $100/night, no tip-out.
    Heavenly Bodies is a bikini bar in which you perform topless grinds for $15 or bikini grinds for $10. Club takes $5 of each dance, plus $100 house. I don't know what girls average here, because I quit after working 2 hrs. It's a run-down place, though it's constantly packed.
    Club O and Industrial Strip are both full-contact, nude clubs. House is $100 at each, and the club takes a perecentage of your dance earnings, as well. Girls easily earn $600-$1000 on a weekend night. Warning: FULL CONTACT, NUDE DANCES.
    Finally, Allstars is a relatively upscale topless club near O'HAre Airport. Air dances are $10 and private booth dances $30(you keep $20). I averaged between $400-$700 night here; house-fee is $50, plus 10% tip-out and $20 to the house-mom.
    If you ladies have any other questions, feel free to ask!

    Good analysis Juliet.. I've worked at those Chicago clubs.... And yeah BIG WARNING on club o and Industrial Strip. Even though it appears the other way around I've found Club O to be a lot shadier than IS... Club O actually has a limo parked out back for u and a customer to take off in.. YIKES! Industrial Strip has really private dances but there's an emergency button incase anything goes wrong. No alcohol in this place though which is probably a good thing (btw there's alcohol at the O).. I've never had any problems really at either of those clubs tho... except my car getting broken into in the IS parking lot which sucked and pissed me off cuz I pay tens of thousands a year in house fees to work there they SHOULD have someone to watching the parking lot you would THINK. ( yes I'm a little bitter). But the money at these place are unbelievable if u catch a decent night.

    I currently work at the Admiral, and I found that the money isn't what it used to be. It's true that minorities
    earn less it's just a fact. The quality of this club has gone down. They have changed the rules alot.
    Now you earn $4.25 an hour instead $4.75 an hour.
    You can wear whatever you want now. Meaning the shoes can be higher than an inch in the front.
    Health Insurance is no longer availible.
    Now they have an independent contractor thing where you can come and go as you please and you can wear shorts. You can still make good money here you just have to work a little harder.

    BEWARE OF AMATEUR NIGHT- It is sometimes fixed
    What they will do is have a house girl wear her street clothes and pretend that she is an amateur and she competes againist the real amateurs and of course the house girl wins !

    I was not a house girl and I won the amateur contest. They gave me $300 for dancing to one song. Its worth a try I think.

    I ran into a fake amatuer night at Scarlett's several years ago. They still hired me and a couple other girls, but the girl they already knew won the money. I worked a couple shifts and left because the club had very little business. Can anyone tell me how to get hired at VIP, Club O, Skybox and/or Industrial Strip?

    The Manager at Club O is really nice her name is Regina.
    She will set up an audition and you will be working the next day.
    The audition is easy she just wants to see if you comfortable dancing nude.
    Hope this helps a little

    It isn't fixed every week but sometimes it is!
    I won $300 too like two weeks in a row.
    Once as an amateur and again as a house girl !

    All of the clubs in Chicago are mostly ripoffs, physical dumps and worse... not fun.
    (Fun as in light ambiance/atmosphere). If you don't spend enough guys in
    black suits come up to you sometimes. (See reviews on Palatine, IL.) Used to be one like
    this on Apatastic Road in Buffalo Grove but the cops closed it down for extortion.

    Why bother. Go the the far far suburbs. Better yet try Kappa, ss, or Big Als in the rest
    of Illinois. Alot of Chicago guys go up to Wisconsin or do the clubs in Gary IN. for high contact. Anything to get away from the clubs in Chicago. The clubs in small town Illinois are good and they are more like clubs in AZ., ATL, FL or NY, OH. I'm serious. Alot of
    guys just go to other areas of the county when they are traveling. Alot has to do with the
    girls. The Chicago ones are burned out suspicous rough Ho's. Not the type I want to be around sorry.

    Why would you want to sit in a dump thats falling apart, have watered drinks. no contact at all, women who are antagonistic, extremely high prices on everything, be limited on your movement in the club, no parking, no fun, and be in fear of your physical safety?

    There are alot of alternatives these days that are fun.

    So vips is a dump,personally the ones in the subarbs are the ones falling apart and the money in the city is made from conventioniers not the cheapos in the subarbs.vips is the nicest club in chicago with the highest earning potential and the prettiest girls.
