    The best club in Austin is by far Palazio. I only waitressed there but was there long enough to see what the place was all about. The owner is some greek guy that owns the another club in town called "Expose." From what I heard, he's a bit of an ass and always tries to date dancers, but he doesn't come in that much. The club is very nice, the bathrooms are clean, as well as the dressing room. There's a shower but I never saw anyone use it. There is also a stand up tanning booth but you need a points card or something to use it. There are tons of lockers to put your bags in so you'll need a lock. The house mom is a very sweet, large lady but I wouldn't wanna piss her off. She brings in a rack of clothing every night but I thought it was all overpriced.

    There are three stages. The main stage is pretty big and the other two are on either side of the room. Each stage has a pole. There are no stages in VIP. VIP is very nice and clean. It is sectioned off from the rest of the club by a long glass wall that is lit up with blacklights. There are 2 bars...a huge one in the main part of the club and smaller one in VIP. The waitstaff is nice and respond well to tipping from dancers. The food is amazing and the kitchen is spotless but there is no "employee" menu for dancers, only waitstaff.

    When I was there, the management was really cool. There's a gorgeous assistant manager named Bishop, but he's ALL business. The managers and DJ's REALLY watch after the girls...they rarely miss anything. As always, there is a lil' naughty business that goes on between dancers and custys in VIP but from what I saw, nothing very extensive; Medium contact...apparently the mens VIP bathroom is where some "booty" has taken place...but again, if a manager catches a dancer anywhere near that door, she'll be fired...lol. There is a pretty nice smoking lounge attached to the building that looks out over the parking lot but it's complete with benches and a flatscreen TV.

    Tipping out for dancers was pretty cheap I think, but I could be wrong. I know as a waitress I wasn't happy with it. I only worked evenings and only cleared $100 every now and then, so them taking at least $20 from me each night was painful!. The place is very overstaffed during the week. It seems that girls with regulars are the only ones that prosper...that holds true for both dancers and waitstaff, but overall, most everyone does well. As far as diversity, when I was there earlier this year, there were only two African American girls there and a few hispanics. The majority were white. I don't know if it was a management thing or if it was just that part of town. I personally thought a club like that would have had a bunch more different girls. The customers are mostly caucasian too with a few college guys thrown in.

    Also, there are 2 DJ's...and they are both awesome! They'll play anything you want usually...I think ya gotta dance to three songs, depending on how many dancers there are. This clubs mantality is this: it has an image to uphold...a classy, upscale image so they do their best to keep it that way.

    Anyway, thats all the info I have. Tell your friend I wish her luck!

    it was edited by the moderator. If you have any questions as to why it was edited, contact that moderator. In this case, you can see it was edited by Tina. I happen to know she was trying to remove all of the racist content of the OP's message and I believe you were quoting it. It had to be removed for continuity.

    Um, let's not flip out...my comments in that post were not meant to be "racially inflammatory." And also, I didn't edit it because I saw nothing wrong with it. I meant that there might be something wierd with the club because there were only 2 black girls, maybe three hispanic girls and the rest white. I added it so the girl could make a more informed opinion depending on her ethnicity. She very well may be cuban or hispanic since she is from Miami and with that in mind, at a club that (from what I saw) mainly caters to white males, she could either do very well or not. If anyone confused the meaning of my post with "racism" then they shouldn't be so damn touchy. If I were thinking about applying at a club in an area I haven't been able to check out yet, I'd sure like to know what race is the majority. It tells you a lot about the area the club is in, which type of patrons the club caters to, all about the management, etc...I'd didn't think that pertinent, specific info about a club would warrant a crappy comment...jeez.

    considering that plenty of clubs are notorious for 'three black girls only' rules/policies, stating things the way you did was taken as approval of that sort of policy.

    also, black and hispanic dancers are not alien creatures. they can sell to white customers perfectly well.

    FemTexan, You wrote (to paraphrase) the club wants to mantain a classy image........they only have 2 Black girls in the entire club!

    When you put "......." after the "classy image", and before the "only have 2 Black girls" That means the two items are in direct relation. You may not have meant that, but you surely wrote it. It was discussed at length, OTB, so nobody is imagining it, especially not the mod/mod's that wanted to edit your post. It was a tasteless, racist statement.

    Everyone puts their foot in their mouths sometimes, EVERYONE! We're not being "touchy", your comment was just out of line this time. People will only get pissed, when you try to defend that bad verbage, and blame others for taking it wrong.

    Hey girlie!!!

    Whatever you do in Austin, stay the hell away from Club O. Its the Crazy Lady with a new name....a dancer there sat on my lap last week and was so heavy she nearly crushed my femurs!!

    I've been by Yellow, Palazi-ho, and my old stomping grounds Perfect 10, in the last 2 months, and all are good choices.

    JustJayda:

    "The club wants to maintain a classy image" and "they only have two Black girls" should not and should never have been confused to mean what you think it does. Just because the two facts were stated right next to each other in no way makes a racial statement. You are right. I DIDN'T mean that, and since you understand it, then what's the problem? It really wasn't discussed at length until someone, which I'm guessing is you, reported the post and got the mod to edit it. You can keep tacky things like "It was a tasteless, racist statement" to yourself, especially since you don't understand that what you are talking about isn't even an issue anymore. It's been clarified already. The issue is dead. Drop it.

    I really don't think I put my foot in my mouth. We are talking about two separate facts being morphed into one meaning...a meaning that was twisted and misconstrued into something racist. I think the people that got confused should be the ones inserting their own foot into their own mouths. Not the other way around. I know what I said and I know what I meant by it and that's all that matters to me. You can sit and trouble yourselves with my post if you like, but I won't. I'd rather not be an alarmist.

    Yes, everyone that bitched about it was "touchy." Easily bothered and obviously looking for something to complain about. My "bad verbiage" wasn't out of line; it was factual and in no way insinuated that I am racist. It was two thoughts, facts, put next to each other on accident. The club is classy. There are only two black women in it. Simple facts. If anything, there is something wrong with the club. I thought those two dancers were beautiful, tasteful and they made bank every night! Sorry, but if me defending myself and clarifying the meaning of my post pisses people off more, than they can just sit there and steam about it if they want to. It matters little to me.

    If you want to assume that I am racist, then take a look at yourselves and see if you can't see the point in what I'm about to say.

    I was a cocktail waitress at this club. I was advised by the other waitresses and some dancers to avoid waiting on the Hispanic guys. I thought they were crappy people for saying that but I soon found out why. I went to a table of four Hispanic guys told them how much the beer was, took their order, got the drinks, put them on the table and told them the total cost. They just looked at me and pretended not to know how to speak English. Finally, after trying everything to get the drink money from them, I had to go to a manager and they were promptly removed form the club. The rest of the wait staff said, "See, we told you so." I got the very same story from many of the dancers. Granted not all the Hispanics that came in the club were like that, but enough of them were to make me wary of waiting on them. With that said, you can't tell me you guys don't do the same thing.

    If there is a Hispanic dude sitting there, or even a White guy, and he doesn't appear to be as well off as the nicer looking gentleman sitting a few tables down, who would you dance for first? Who would you think you could get more dances from? Well, duh. The nicer looking guy sitting a few tables down. Are you guilty of being racist? Politically speaking, yes but to the rest of us with common sense, nope. Actually, you should be able to dance for whoever you want to. Do I know you well enough to call you a racist? Nope and even if I did, I wouldn't. If you posted a thread on here saying you danced for a Hispanic guy last night but then he refused to pay you, and then you said it would make you wary of dancing for that ethnic group from now on, should I call you a racist? Nope. I would never assume that you were racist just because you typed something about race on the web. Therefore, why should I be made an example of?

    Having said all this, and knowing what decisions you make each night about who do dance for and who you could typically get the most dances from, it seems that if I wanted to make a public assumption about how you feel regarding different ethnicity's, I could call you a racist as well. After all, you made that assumption about me, so it's only fair for you to be treated the same...but I won't do that because I'm not a fruit-loop.

    I've said my piece and so have you. I'm done talking about this and I'm bored of the subject. In the future, please try not to take what some random person types on the internet so personally. It's hard to figure out what people mean when they've typed something anyway because it is so easy to perceive it negatively when it's not being spoken. I'm sure if I'd have been able to speak to you what I wrote, you would understand that it was never meant to offend anyone. Being the intelligent person you think you are, it seems you'd have thought about that before verbally attacking someone. Please don't bother writing back a pissy reply. I will just ignore it anyway because like I said, I'm done. Cheers!

    Blah, Blah, Blah. FYI, I didn't report your post, nor have I ever reported ANYONE'S post. So don't target me. This is/was not "personal", in that I wasn't the only one offended by your comment. You can dance around it all you want but when "........" goes between two statements in the English language, it means they are related, or the person writing intends to show a relation. That's just the way it is.

    Further, I never attacked you, lol. Sounds like you're the "touchy" one.
    Play nice!

    I'm gonna side with Jayda and anyone else who was offended by someone who can't admit when they're wrong....does that mean I'm racist against white people?

    Okay and my other reason for posting is to ask what the laws are with nudity/alcohol/contact in Austin 'cuz I'm thinking of visiting.

    There are both topless and all nude bars in Austin. The nude bars can't sell alcohol so the clubs are BYOB and they offer juice set-ups. The topless bars sell alcohol until 2am. The nude bar is pretty far from downtown Austin. I went there along time ago and based on my visit there as a customer, I'd recommend working at a topless bar.
