You may want to check Tuscl.com for reviews of strip clubs in the area. It'll give you some fairly honest opinions of the clubs by previous patrons.
Vinnie Paul is a minority owner in the Chicas Bonitas chain, so there is lots of Pantera memorabilia too if you're into that.
There is another club about a block north that I hear may be more what you're looking for. I forget the name, though. They're both just north of Tonopah Ave.
Quote: GreasyjohnDoes anyone know of an off-strip pole dance type of bar in Vegas? No lap dances and booming music with a cover. Just a good looking girl or two, dancing, tipping and drinking. Not a dive but a little raw that caters to a white clientele?
I've only been to a couple clubs in Vegas, but I would be surprised if any places had NO lap dances, seems like a big part of the dancers' incomes come from that.
At Glitter Gulch a lap dance in the back cost $100. You got a nice little rub down when the stripper sat in your lap and grinded away. It is almost as good as sex. But I heard they passed a law where the stripper has to stay six inches away from the customer.
Quote: FleaStiffReviews particularly of the smaller clubs are rare. Vegas Made Easy has a very good article but its a bit old. I don't even know if The Library is still open these days but it was always considered one of the better local clubs.
It is closed now.
If you look at the architecture ...(no, no... I mean the furniture) you will see these places clearly make money and go upscale at the drop of a hat. Some of them are now winning culinary prizes for the depth and breadth of their menus and free lunches.

When I first moved to Vegas (the second time) I was riding the bus back from downtown along Freemont/boulder hwy. This young guy was hitting on this girl in front of me. When she told him she worked at the library, he was impressed, then went on about how he wished he could get more book smart. She never corrected him, but she got off at the right stop for The Library.
Now im wondering if she really did work at a library because, I never meet a stripper that had to ride the bus.Quote: rxwineWhen I first moved to Vegas (the second time) I was riding the bus back from downtown along Freemont/boulder hwy.

Quote: djatcI know of a guy who's heart was broken when he scouted the library and it was closed.
Yeah, that was MY heart! Loved the concept and hated to see that it was closed and I missed out. So sad. If I ever hit the "big one", I'll buy it and open it back up.

Pretty sure she worked there. Don't know if she had a car, maybe she was new to the club and still broke, or maybe it was getting fixed. There's not many reasons to get off the bus there. Or there weren't then. Don't know what's been built around there lately.
Generally strippers know plenty of guys or girls who are more then happy to give the a lift to the club, I have done so myself a few times. Generally its a BF, so I still maintain strippers don't ride buses unless they are built with stripper poles, as seen here https://www.google.com/search?q=stripper+bus&num=100&es_sm=122&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=rjZMU-3jEcSZ8QHwm4C4Dg&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAg&biw=1455&bih=698Quote: rxwinePretty sure she worked there.
