    Post Star Strip - LA area

    Star Strip used to be a fun club, then went downhill more than a year ago. I could not find any recent reviews, so I decided to take one for the team and check it out on a weekend night. For the uninitiated, Star Strip is located two blocks from the Beverly center and few blocks from Melrose and Sunset night spots and restaurants.

    There were about 15 dancers, two really beautiful but the majority about average. Some have been here for as far back as I can recall. The club has several stages that used to be filled with customers, including a constant flow of oriental tourist groups. During my visit, the most customers at any point were less than ten (in spite of the LA Weekly coupons for free entry until 11:00 PM). The club has topless laps for $30. Only one customer did repeat laps, while two others did one lap each. At the tip rail, there were between one and five customers at different times.

    The strongest impression I kept getting during my entire visit was the bad vibes from the dancers. They seemed bored and edgy. They asked for laps in an unappealing way. Some would not take no for an answer. Two girls separately offered me 2-for-1 as a sales pitch. The club doesn't have 2-for-1 specials, so I was a bit suspicious as I was ripped off before in this club. The girl said if I got a lap from her we would do A, B, and C. I went back with her, and she wouldn't do anything. When I told her you said we would do A, B, and C, she just stared at me while continuing her air dance. When she was done, she asked "would you like another dance?" It was surreal, actually bordering on amusing.

    I still would have done laps with two of the girls if it weren't for the erratic song length. The DJ cut many songs to about 2 minutes, and that simply vetoed my lap plans. Most of the laps were done at the booth closest to the entrance, and it was easy to see the action from outside. The guy lies down on a long couch, and the girl is all over him. The mileage seems decent.

    Only the main stage was open, and it is the worst stage in the club. The most customers at the tip rail at any time would have fit into any of the smaller, more intimate stages with room to spare. The dancers at Star Strip have the annoying habit of pulling down the stage tips during the song. It would have been less annoying if they spent more time in front of you than the 2 seconds it took them to pull down the tips. Only a third of the dancers did nice sets.

    Throughout my visit, there was a subdued atmosphere. The smiles were rare and seemed to be done with undue effort. The body language of the dancers was not indicative of happy campers. Although my expectations were low to begin with, I was hoping that I would be pleasantly surprised. Well, there were two pleasant surprises. I saw the prettiest dancer that I have seen in all 7 clubs that I visited this summer, and I found a parking spot on La Cienega.

    THE FUNDAMENTALS

    Dancer Looks: 8.0 (top three girls) , 6.5 (overall average)

    Stage Mileage: 6.0 (lighting) , 6.0 (nudity)

    Lap Mileage: ?

    Song Length: 2:15-3:15 (regular)

    Lap Cost: $30 (topless)
