Yes, the songs are chopped short, but I find the dancers make up for it with higher mileage. YMMV

Godfather Van Nuys is small, but the dancers tend to range from thick to thicker, with one or two exceptions. I"m not into thick so it's the exceptions I like. If Ardyce is there, she's older but has a great body, and if Crystal comes over from the other Godfather, she's smoking hot.

Stick to the smaller, non-franchise clubs in the Valley and go when its slow. You'll have all the *extras* offers you want. Girls gotta pay their rent.

I tried a mid-day visit in early June. One PL was already there and looking suicidal. No one was dancing. The announcer kept saying a dancer was coming on stage, but no one did. A girl who might have been the one dancer was intensely discussing something with the security guy. Since I was invisible to all, I left.

Interesting. I stopped in there today and it was pretty friendly. One slender white dancer on stage with a Perfect (for me) body who was 50(!) and one Latina a little thick in the middle. The white chick was very friendly and we had some dances in the back. Privacy isn't good there, but there's no lurking bouncer during the day. Huge contrast with my experience with Jet Strip at the same time of day, mid-week. I was one of 2 or 3 guys in the place the whole time I was there, but got tons of attention.

Thanks, JF, that could be. But if it were a dancer, I'd have thought she would have acknowledged me as a potential investor in her dance skillz.

Mid day on a Saturday, I decided to drive 10 miles to Jet Strip. Paid my $6 cover and walked in. Empty club except for one PL staring off into space at a table back from the rail.   But I was interested in interacting with a dancer, so I sat at the rail.   Only, no dancer. The DJ was announcing a dancer's name, but as I looked around, I noticed a dancer talking to a security guy to the left of the stage. They seemed pretty interested in each other at the moment. I looked back at the bar and there was someone puttering behind the bar and a tall blonde waitress standing 10 feet from me staring into space.   And I sat as another song played, and it was like being in a painting. Nobody was moving anywhere. I looked at the waitress again, wondering why she didn't come over and offer me a drink. The DJ announced the dancer's name again. Empty stage. This was starting to seem like a Twilight Zone episode. Everyone was frozen where they were.   So I left.   Later the same day I went to 4Play and dropped (for me) an unconscionable amount of money. But that was the mood I was in.   In contrast, everyone at 4play, from the door guy to the chick who took my cover money to the waitress and dancers seemed to make an effort. This is probably why I keep coming back. 

Well, I give a lot of points for attitude, and Karma's attitude with me was super friendly and attentive, and that counts for a lot. You don't always find that with a perfect (for you) hottie.

I could easily leave too much money with Karma. So I leave the extra cash at home. She is addictive.
