    Default Help! Dancing in Minnesota

    Hey I'm an Australian Girl who's just landed in MN... I am wondering what clubs are best to dance at around St Paul/Minneapolis and what's required as I have a holiday visa, not a working visa but I've heard that this doesn't matter to most American clubs. Also what is the legal dancing age here as I am 18 and in Aus that's the legal age but I fear that the age may be affected due to legal drinking age in the states being 21...
    Any info on any of these queries would be hugely appreciated.

    As another Aussie dancer.. I'd also like to know about other states or clubs in the USA that are decent (not skanky).. either full nude or topless.. contact I'm not worried about.. besides Texas (Austin TX esp) that will hire "holiday visa" type of girls.

    Hey AussieDancer.. from a previous thread.. you will see that you could've landed in Texas with a better chance of being hired. It is definately a place I want to go to ..... my next trip to the USA will be to Austin TX to dance at one or a few of the clubs there over a period of a couple of weeks.

    I'm lucky tho'.. I'm going 26 this year (my stripper age is 24 tho) hence I'll definately be legal.

    Otherwise, just do a search here and at TUSCL

    Hi - good luck with finding somewhere! I'd be interested to hear bout the clubs too and the visa thing too - I'm thinking of going over there sometime. I'm pretty sure I'm too old to get a working visa now though. Enjoy your stay!!! (-:

    JOW! I just saw your pic... It's Paris from Bad Girls babe! Decided perhaps not to get my boobs done after the info you gave me by the way!!! Freaked me out. I still haven't found anywhere to work... Although I haven't actually gone to the cities and looked yet. Just asked around really. But I will be going there on Friday so I'll check it out. Keep in touch! You too Vanessa... And have fun at "Sad Girls" ladies I feel your pain. At least all the girls are awesome. Tell them I love them and take care yourselves!
    Love Paris xxx

    I guess that's all you can do is go to each club and see who hires you and/or gives you an audition Best of luck Paris ... and keep us all updated

    On a side note for all of us Gold Coast Girls....
    Another 4 weeks max. then the new club "Hollywood" opens. The rumour is that it is going to be well designed.. yet have a Marilyn Monroe impersonator out front encouraging people to come into the club. Oh yeah.. and it is *BIG groan* another percentage club (60/40). That's all I have heard so far.

    Whilst it might get inundated with girls.. it might not at the same time.. there are a few girls at Sad Girls who are staying put there and not rushing off to the new club. They all say HI back and wish you the best

    OMG - I can't belive it's you, lol!!! How long are you there for? Why Minnesota? Will you travel?
    I hope it all works out well for you - have a great time anyway!!!
    I didn't bother going back to Sad Girls, (lol - much better name!) - it was having to work weekends that pissed me off most. It's the only time I have full days with my son and I don't want to be tired and cranky especially since I've NEVER done well on the weekends at Bad Girls so I decided to cut my losses. I might return for Indy, but I'm not sure if I'll even bother this year.
    Take care and keep in touch! xxx

    GCG - are you at Sad Girls again? If so can you let me know if they drop the compulsery weekend thing and allow stage tiping again. I'll suffer stillettos, (well maybe, lol...) and dresses if I really have to, but that's about my limit.

    Yes.. I'm at Sad Girls because I didn't want to pay out $50 per shift door fee (Crazy Horse). I would rather go home with $35 than be in the hole for any amount due to a stage/dancer fee. As for the compulsory weekend thing... still in place. Friday they're open from 5pm and I'm only allowed to start later (7pm) because I have been working every night and will be staying until close.

    No stage tipping but last night I did earn nearly $50 during my last stage set So.. just like the greedy club down the road that I used to worked at for over a year.. the stage tipping isn't common enough to be counted upon for income.

    I've been working since Tuesday.. and had my first great shift last night (Thursday). I'm doing every night until Tuesday this week due to wanting the extra cash before I go on my LV trip.

    There is still money in this club but .. as you know.. you usually only have one great shift and the rest aren't so hot.

    I posted to you @ your Yahoo Group.

    Keep us updated Paris Hope you're doing well!

    On another note, I found out that Players has recently re-instated their 50/50 rule in regards to tips. Now.. could you get any more GREEDIER of a club.. they take 45% and now 50/50 with tips !! I don't care that it is a popular club with money definately inside those doors.. I'm not handing over **MY** tips for the club to take half... and not to mention the 45% !! That extra 5% does affect things. To think I wanted to go back for a month.. phew.. I'm glad I didn't.

    Sheesh - can the Coast get any worse?! Thanks GCG. (-:
    The Hollywood club sounds pretty stupid, though I'd be prepared to work there under some circumstancies, and you never know maybe the Maralyn thing'll work, bwahhh! I guess I'll check it out and see how I feel next time round.
    I'm off to Sydney this coming Wednesday and I have a couple of new projects I'm working on which I've decided can keep me busy when I'm on the coast if I don't work here again.
    Glad you had a good night - you deserve to!!!!!! Hope all the rest are good for you too. I should go check my group out I guess!

    I've not heard a good thing about the St Paul/Minneapolis clubs in a long time. Even when it was good up there, girls complained about very high payouts and house fees. I'm talking 50% of what you make never goes home with you.

    We're getting a LOT of those girls coming down to Des Moines to work. Check out the Lumber Yard @ www.iwantwood.com. Nude club with level of contact left up to individual dancers but still nothing nasty allowed. Dance clean but work hard and you can still make good money.

    And the good news! I doubt you'll have a problem with your holiday visa. Don't even bring up the fact that you don't have a work visa. Just have proof of age; they will need that on file. Ask for Mike (Manager) or Matt (Assistant Manager). Matt's not in a good mood these days (overworked) so you may wanna hunt down Mike. 515-265-1019

    Typically they require new dancers to "audition" at an amateur night (held once a month), but they've been known to bend that rule. Be super sweet and SOBER and ya got a shot! (Sober comment because of recent problems with new girls.)

    PM me and let me know if you may be headed my way! I'd love to help out any way I can.

    Are there any dancers on the board from the twin cities? Here's another dancer that needs to know about clubs in the area. Thanks!

    The best clubs in the Minneapolis area are Ricks, Scheiks, and King of Diamonds.

    I work in some smaller clubs within 100 miles of there as do other Twin Cities girls as payouts are high in the cities.

    Mettlers in Mankato 75 miles south is decent and payout is $25 a night. Just send in a picture and call the club asking for Mike or Jan and if you contact them before Thursday you will be put on schedule for the days you want the next week.

    Aragon in Albert Lea which is 95 miles south on I-35 is good and the owner is nice. Base pay is $300 per a Mon-sat week. You can e-mail a picture along with a dancer reference and call at around 10:30 AM to speak to him. He books 3-4 weeks out.

    Lots of Twin City girls work in Fargo ND at Northern on bookings and some work across the border in Wisconsin at the Cajun Club which is open Wed-Sat I believe.

    The smaller clubs just want to see ID and are not hung on ss#'s. Just write one down and they won't ask to see the card.

    On the Wisconsin side of Winona MN which is 110 miles south of the Cities, 4 Mile Bar and Gin Mill are decent. The Gin Mill pays $400 base pay for Tues-Sat bookings and is on the top of a hill (weird location) and run by some easy going bikers. I worked there before. They won't check your SS card or report your earnings.

    4 Mile Bar down the hill is a decent volume little club with decent looking girls. They only pay select girls but you can do ok there with little red tape.

    Avoid the 2 clubs in Austin (Spam factory town) MN as most of those girls just use those clubs to line up after hours dates.
