    Default how do dancers in Australia make money?

    I've seen hardly any stage tipping in Australia in Melbourne/Sydney, save a couple of clubs in Kings Cross. I've seen some quiet nights where nobody seems to be doing any private dances and I'm wondering where does the money come from.

    My question is whether dancers get an appearance fee or hourly wage or whether it's like the states where often dancers have to pay to enter the club to dance?

    cheers

    We make money just from tips and private shows / lap dancing. Maybe you've just hit the quiet times? There are some clubs which pay a retainer if you dont make over a certain amount of money, but that is not the norm.

    tipping is not common in australia - as in stage tipping like in US with the dollar bills virtually doesn't happen.
    at my club in melbourne we sell table dances $20 and private dances $20 for one song or $50 for 3 songs.
    we also pay a house fee to work at the club and i dont know of any club in melbourne that has a retainer i think some in sydney and qld might,

    Aussie men are tight asses (plain & simple). They wanna talk talk talk talk & maybe go for a show if their drunk enough.

    BIG time wasters!
