Your best bets for clubs that may have features would be Tiffany's Cabaret, the Body Shop, Centerfolds, or Bourbon Street. My favorite clubs to go to as a customer are: Bandaids because it's real small and the girls are kind of fun; Amazons; or Bourbon Street. I go to Phoenix every year around the time of the Phoenix open (for a different event that just coincides time-wise), and two years I danced during the night shift, but this year didn't of course because I was 6 months pregnant.
I danced a night at Tiffany's and it's a REALLY nice gentleman's club, but I just wanted to hang out with the guys, and it's more of a hustler's club. I danced a whole week at Amazons. Had a ball. This was right at the time of their management change in January 2000 though, so I don't know if it's still as good.
I danced one night at Bandaids which kind of just feels like a bar and I probably would have went back if I had made more money there.
I also danced a night at Le Girls, which at that time I think was the only NUDE club in the Phoenix area, and I prefer nude, but again no money there.
The clubs in Scottsdale require the girls to have an entertainer's license, as do some of the clubs in the downtown Phoenix area.
I didn't get to dance at Bourbon Street, because there was a waiting list two weeks long just to get an audition (which speaks very highly of the club).
And I didn't even get to see Hi-Liter, but from what John says, it's one of his favorite clubs in Phoenix. As for your question about features in Phoenix, I think one of the problems may be that the price of the lap dances is so cheap ($5 - $10), that the guys there would simply never pay the $20- $50 a feature porn dancer asks for a lap dance.
I like Phoenix a LOT, and if I go back again next year, I'll most likely be putting in an application at Bourbon Street or Hi-Liter before I get there.
Hope this helps, and enjoy!!!!  [Link] |

Wow thanks for the post Tricia. I look every day in the sports page and especially on Monday to see if anyone is listed as they put the adult clubs in that section which makes sense,lol. I just started a job out here so finances are a little tight now but I really want to go to the clubs and see who is dancing even if it is regular girls who are also very pretty. I like that several of the clubs are called Cabaret or use that word in the title or advertising, it just adds a bit of class I think. There is a new club opening up this Thursday and Friday called VIP Cabaret. That would just kick ass if you could come down next year even if it is just to hang out at a club I would love to come and just say hi and thanks for the many good fantasies of mine you have fulfilled. I was just in an adult store today looking for some vhs tapes to rent and ran across a Gangland video and it had someone on the cover and the name was Tricia and I looked closer and it was you, very nice. I still love Gangbang Girl 17 the best though just because you are in it for so long. Thanks again for the post and hope you can make it back someday and please thank John for the club he recommended. I haven't seen that one listed in the paper but maybe I have just missed it, there are days when there are several listed and day when none are there so I will keep looking.Not surprised about Scottsdale, that is like Beverly Hills out here,lol. They do everything different there taxes on groceries, etc. The scenery, though, out there is just awesome. I work at a new Safeway and we just have a great view of the mountains and down into the valley. Edited by - bono-ONE on Jul 5 2001  [Link] |

The Edge (106.3) used to mention pornstar visits, mainly adult store autograph gigs, but I haven't listened to them much lately. This time of year makes people melt, so I can't blame those who don't visit. By the way, Tricia, Bandaids? Seems like an area where'd I'd be packin' before I went at night Tiffany's is located pretty south too, but not as many homes and stuff. I liked Tiffany's a lot actually. That place was really nice and the women were top-notch. I've been to Babes in Scottsdale, which had sweet lookin girls, but they were really rude. Had to pretty much wave money at them to get noticed. Thankfully, I don't have any extra cash, and my friends that liked going to those bars don't go out anymore. [Link] |

Well, as usual I was feeling pretty insecure and thought that Tiffany's or Bourbon Street would be out of my league because I hadn't been working out or getting a tan or anything.
So I went to Bandaids and got my confidence level up and it worked really well. John stayed with me most of that night. There was this one girl there that we both thought was really hot.
I had so much fun at Amazons - they played REALLY great music. I hope they're still open.
The only thing I didn't like about Tiffany's is that they just didn't have a very laid-back attitude. They had such gorgeous girls though, that it's a club I'd pay to get into!
To give you an idea of what I'm used to, I spent my first 3 years as a stripper as a national dancer for Deja Vu clubs, mostly in the midwest. Then I went to clubs like Tiffany's. Basically, I like the clubs where it at least SEEMS like the girls are having a good time.
My favorite place I've danced? Rick's in Seattle. If you're ever ANYWHERE near there, you HAVE to go. You won't believe it.[Link] |

Thanks again Tricia and if I am ever in Seattle I will definitely try and go there.When I used to live in Bakersfield, CA a few years back we had a Deja Vu and there would be many a porn star who passed through our town. Edited by - bono-ONE on Jul 6 2001 [Link] |

Thanks for the reply Tricia! I don't see why you wouldn't have been able to dance at Tiffany's or wherever? I can see what you mean about the attitude being stuffy at places like Tiffany's. I've worked at places where people always thought it must be so cool, but then you fill them in on what it's really like as an employee.Amazons? I'm not sure if they're still around or not either. By the way, Deja Vu? I know a little about their features, they're upscale from what I've heard. And you were insecure about Tiffany's? [Link] |

Well, this was in 2000, when I had put on a pound or two, and although I was happy with how I looked, sometimes dance club managers can really break a girl's ego.
I remember one time auditioning at a Solid Gold, and I was in the best shape of my life, but the manager told me I wasn't their club's type (which from what I saw was all plastic Barbie dolls with absolutely NO personality.) I consoled myself by thinking his loss!!!!!
Anyway, it's taken me SO long to get over my insecurities about not "looking" like a top porn star, that I just didn't want to take the chance of someone saying something bad about me.[Link] |

Yeah what an idiot Tricia,lol. I am so glad you are over whatever insecurities you had about being a "top porn star" because I know you are a beautiful woman who has made many men and women happy with your performances on screen and dancing and to see you now as a successful business woman and a new mom is icing on the cake.[Link] |

Well I found some more clubs listed in the back of a paper called Phoenix New Times which I think comes out once a week. Anyway, almost to the back of it they have a page listing various clubs where the ladies take it off,lol. Among those listed are Amazons, HiLiter, Bourbon Street, and Bandaids along with several with the cabaret listed in the title. The ad for Bourbon Street is funny in that is lists no address or phone number which might make it hard for someone to find them,lol. I hope to check out some of these clubs soon just to get an idea of which is the best. The Hiliter ad mentions $8 table dances all the time so that is not to bad if you're on a budget like some of us are trying to be on,lol.[Link] |

Bono-
If you need the address to any of these clubs, I have a list at home with addresses.
There's also a nightclub directory (forget the name, but I could look it up if you wanted) that is sold in a lot of the strip clubs in Phoenix.
Unless it's changed, ALL of the clubs in Phoenix have just about the cheapest good lap dances I've seen.
(The ones at Rick's in Seattle start at $20 and the guys can sometimes negotiate a higher price for a better, nastier lap dance. Literally a lap dance.)[Link] |

Thanks for the kind offer Tricia but all the clubs had their addresses and phone numbers listed except for the one I noted which I am sure won't be to hard to find. I just have to get the nerve up to go, haven't been to many adult clubs in my day and when I do go my jaw is usually to the floor and I smile a lot like an idiot pervert,lol. I just like going in and looking at all the pretty ladies and I usually will pick one out and have them dance for me and let me say I enjoy that quite a bit. I am also looking for good clubs to just go and listen to some good rock music and this paper also listed a lot of those. I just haven't had the opportunities to do these types of activities for the last few years and even before when I lived in Bakersfield I just didn't get out to much, painfully shy I am but I think I will be able to work on that here, already have met some cool people at work and I have already gone out a couple of times with them so things are picking up. Sorry to ramble there but sometimes it is good to just talk and I know everyone here is cool enough to listen. Thanks.[Link] |
