Friday afternoon: club quite busy-no customer masks (except me, maybe 1 other). All staff wearing masks.  CR normal operation except it seemed customers only getting 2/3 dances. Saw 1 table dance. Working today; Ariel, Dice, Vanessa, Dove, Richie, Selena and maybe 1 or 2 others.

I'm still kind of confused about this.

On another (admittedly unreliable) message board, someone said there was no contact allowed in the CRs. That would certainly explain why no one's staying down there very long. And I gather starting this Saturday, masks are mandatory for all public indoor locations?

Thursday afternoon. Not overly busy but at least 5 lovely ladies. All wearing masks  (incl customers) and lots of room for distancing.  Working today were Selena, Velinda, Dice, Stephanie AND the incomparable Maude.  Still as stunning as ever and still a great show on stage. She's working day time regular now so if you haven't seen her, go see her now.

Was there from Friday 6 to 11:30 pm.  Masks mandatory if walking.  Sitting at table, choice to wear, as long as you have a drink.

First around three girls, than later in the night progressed to around ten.  Busier than Nuden.

Server girl wasn't pushy, was very nice and polite.

Had a champagne dance with a tall blonde.  Sad to say, it's not the same as before.  Have to be six feet away.  No contact and same price. 

Had more contact outside of the champagne room, but just light flirtiness.

Not allowed to go up and ly on stage with bill in mouth.

Also, my friend wants to go again to this club tonight.  He enjoyed it, even though he didn't go for champagne dances.  He said he liked the vibe, very lively, busier.  The girls were at least going on stage dancing, and walking around, compared to Nuden which was the opposite and barely much girls.  Also the bouncers were friendly.  There was a more welcoming attitude.

 

I want to try the other remaining clubs.  Maybe 77 or Casino Cabaret, but don't know if they are open.

Great place as always

[hopeful 1357]

you likely will get more contact dances in the daytime when there's no security watching

[1963Kennedy 10698]

A very quick Monday visit. Only saw Kali on stage. Three other girls working-don't know them. Eight guys hanging around the bar, only 1, 2 or 3 in the floor area so easy to distance.

I feel that these are dark days for the business. Given what 1963Kennedy described, I am worried about clusters. I reference the spa in Kingston that was the source of an outbreak last week. This virus is very resilient and can linger for hours in the air and days on some surfaces. I want all the clubs to survive. I have enjoyed these venues for over 30 years and I hope we can get back to some sort of normalcy. But I am not going to fool myself into thinking that normalcy will happen anytime soon. I don't know anyone on this board personally but I enjoy the posts and contributions from everyone so I hope you will stay safe and protect yourselves when venturing.

 

Please remember, wearing a mask does not protect you, it is protecting everyone around you.  

It is a tough time for sure for everyone. Hopefully the clubs will survive.I have been debating whether to go to the clubs. 

I don't find it too bad to wear a mask. I am getting used to it so you might as well protect yourself.

I think masks do protect yourself and others so you might as well wear them. I have some N95 masks that i wear and they seem to be doing the job.

I am ok with wearing masks. I have gotten used to wearing them and its not too bad.

How do you stay six feet away in the champagne rooms as they are not that big? I guess the dancers are right at the mirror while you sit down?

[1963Kennedy 10698]

Thursday afternoon, still not a lot of customers so distancing is absolutely not a problem. Today Ariel, Selena, Richie,  Maude plus at least 2 others whose name I know not.

They are using the bigger stalls.  The one i was in, was basically one stall but two booths/champagne rooms.  Tall stool pushed back towards other booth.  Wasn't very private, opening was big.

How much do they charge for dances in the champagne room?

Still $ 20 per song, even though No contact like before.  But always verify the cost of the dance, so there's no problem. 

 

But be careful, most may not tell you how many songs you are up to, and may Not be honest about it.  They may just keep dancing.  So always mention the song numbers at every song.  If you are drunk, they may take advantage of you.  You have no power to dispute her.  If you do things will only get worse for you.  They can cry and lie, and everyone may believe her first.  So if something happens, be careful of how you handle it. 

 

There are gems that are worth repeating.

Good luck and have fun

I don't agree with Samurai88 about how to handle a disagreement about the number of songs during a visit to the champagne room. If you are a regular customer and you are sure that the dancer is exaggerating, you do have power. You could tell the dancer that if she insists on overcharging, you will not repeat with her during your frequent future visits. That may be enough to change her mind.

You can also say that you will inform the manager that she is overcharging, The club does not like dancers who overcharge, because it pisses off the customers, who may choose to go elsewhere in the future. So, if you explain that you have been a regular customer for a long time and you threaten to complain to the manager, most dancers won't try to cheat you. Most clubs have a lot more problems with dishonest dancers than with dishonest customers. If you have been a regular customer for a long time, the club manager will probably believe you.

[waterat 20911]

@brentcrocker44 I agree with you. I can lose count all on my own and have been both overcharged and undercharged before! I've often let the dancer know how many dances I want beforehand and even prepaid on occasion. Never a problem. I'm not looking for a dancer to exceed the 'club rules' though it has been offered and happened a few times. I tend to visit SPs or MA's if I'm looking for more.

Ok, thanks for the info. I do like to mention the numbers after every song if i don't know the girl. If you are a regular, at the bar, you do you have power as the manager/staff may recognize you. 

I liked the contact dances, not sure i am that crazy about paying $20/dance and have the dancer 6 feet away from me.

It's a curse to be as good looking as you are.

[tim1 286]

Anybody know whether Pigales is open or have they been shutdown?

[M.O.F.W. 223]

If they are the same as 77 they are being shut down at midnight tonight.

[2bigalow2 2938]

Gatineau is a red zone in Quebec and almost everything is closed for 28 days. even weddings 25 inside 50 outside.  Its under the same rules as Montreal and the police will be at certain areas and only necessary trips will be allowed. Strip clubs, bars, restaurants no dine in, casinos etc... closed

Ok, that is bad news. I have a feeling that things are probably going to be closed until May 2021. We are just getting into flu season and things are probably going to get worse before they get better.

[Jack2000 3446]

I'm assuming the titty bars on the Quebec side are closed ; any word on when they may re-open ? I'm in full dancer withdrawal...

[thepartypigeon 1096]

Apparently Pigale's is open again. Anyone been there? Are there dances downstairs? What's the mask situation??

[Kilt Boy 29353]

I'd be interested to know what talent was available on day one.

[Philmore 149]

If they are following the rules, I don't see how they can be open.
