My first strip club experience HAD to be strange.
Sarah and I were on our way to World 2 to see Didley Squat, but it didn't look very hoppin, so we decided to go back downtown seek other adventures. On our way, we passed Showgirls, and of course, there was no arguing about it. I had never been to a strip club before, Sarah is finally 18, and we both had money...WHY THE HELL NOT?
It was only five bucks for admission, but what they don't tell you is that it's nine cabbages for a diet pepsi. I tipped Madmoiselle Va Va Voom with a fiver, and she exclaimed, "Why, you ladies are even better than the guys! Chortle! Chortle!" And I replied, "Isn't that always the case?"
Simultaneous laughter.
A good time was being had by all....until the WORST thing that could possibly happen when you're at a strip club happened.
I RECOGNIZED ONE OF THE DANCERS.
The assistant manager of Jamba Juice on J Street when I worked there was named Chanel and had a very unique, very unattractive face. That's not all that's unattractive about her, apparently. You know, it's mostly refreshing to go into a place like that expecting boob jobs and teenie tummies and then see that it's mostly average-bodied women. However, Chanel is just straight up ugly...how she works there is beyond me. I SO didn't need to see her vagina.
After that, we ended up deciding to go back to World 2 and give it a chance. I'm very glad we did, because it ended up being one best times I've had in a while.
In case you don't know, World 2 is a warehouse run by James (ex-Birthday member). Trampolines, the "moon room," two big stages, plenty of couches, free beer and mostly all good bands. I made friends, got drunk, and danced my ass off for two and a half hours straight.
Jolly good times for a monday night.
James, as well as Sandi Leper and some guy that hit on me alot, are in a band called "Killing Buddha" that's actually quite good. Go see their website.
