    Default Illinois?  Indiana?

    Hi everyone!
    I'm getting back into dancing after a few months off, & am also in the middle of a move from NC to eastern IL. I'm going to be just east of Champaign, near the Indiana border. Does anyone have any info to share about clubs? I know that I may have to travel a lot to make any decent money, but I'm anxious to get any feedback I can about where to work. Any & all help is soooo appreciated!!! Thanks, & I hope to talk to you all soon!
    Hugs,
    Kylee

    Hey Kylee,
    I'm a customer who goes to a club in Indianapolis, so that isn't too close to yours...but I got this reply to a recent post of my own which refers to South Bend....Maybe you could ask Melonie? She posted this.
    I've danced in the Ft. Wayne area and also in the South Bend area. Ft. Wayne was more straight-laced than I was used to although it was fun and profitable. South Bend SUCKED due to the high level of sleaze, drugs and extra-curricular activities (one clubowner was shot in the club while I was dancing there!).

    Kylee, I'm nowhere close to Illinois, but I do go back there now and then, so I've sometimes looked at the clubs around there just out of curiosity.

    It seems to be that there were two clubs in the Champaign-Urbana area and another club in Danville. There was also a popular club in Kenney. That's all that comes to mind.

    I'd suggest going to and clicking on Illinois and Indiana and checking those out, if you haven't done that already.

    Thanks guys!
    I asked my bf about Ft. Wayne & South Bend, & apparently they're both several hours away, but I may try F.W. for a weekend just to see.
    Hi Jason! Nice to see you again! Champaign would be great; my bf says there is a club called Silver Bullet, but since he's not a patron, he doesn't know much about it. Danville would be ideal location-wise. Thanks for all your help! I've looked at stripclublist, but sometimes it's good to get a "real" view.
    Hugs,
    Kylee

    Hey, Kylee, good to see you, too.

    When I looked at Champaign, Silver Bullet seemed to be the most popular. The other was "Malibu Bay," and it didn't have very good comments.

    You might check out Top Hat in Belgium. Belgium is right outside of Danville.

    Good luck, Kylee.

    If you're going to try Ft. Wayne, check out Brandys or Showgirls 3 for medium earnings and reasonably low contact levels. Club Centerfold is the only club in town that hires features, it's located right smack in the middle of an industrial park, and it's a bit tacky, but there are some major bucks to be had in this club with the right inducement if you catch my drift.

    Kylee,

    Indy is the best place in the area to make money without much contact. Dancers West, the two Brad's clubs, Classy Chassy and PT's are all pretty good. Friday and Saturday nights are usually good for $400-600. Other nights are around $300. Day shifts on Thursday and Friday are around $400. Days otherwise are maybe $200.

    The rest of the Indy clubs are pretty much neighborhood clubs. The Babes clubs are OK for money, not great. But you can make $200 a night there on a busy night.

    There is no working for drinks like in Kentucky. You make everything in stage tips and VIPs. The VIP room at the Brads clubs is $50/half hour. You pay a $10 tipout per half hour. $20 tipout to the DJ per shift. If you work a split shift, you have to tip both DJ's $20. At Brads you keep all your stage tips and all the couch dance money. Dancers tipout was a straight $5 per song in the VIP room plus $20 to the DJ. Classy is the same.

    Terre Haute has zero earning potential. No customers, no contact, no nothing. There are some small town clubs in Indiana. They usually have zero contact and very frew customers who are not Hispanic. If you speak Spanish, you can probably make some money. The guys are lonely and the cops are vigilant.

    Ft. Wayne has a couple of good clubs, like Melonie says. South Bend is pretty rough. The Industrial Strip in Michigan City has a reputation for offering lots of extras at discount prices. They supposedly don't have a liquor license. There is a Deja Vu club in Northwest Indiana. If they are like the one in Louisville, the tipout is roughly 45-55%. Contact is probably pretty limited there. Evansville is as dead as Terre Haute. Again, if you speak Spanish, you may be able to make some money.
