if you don't know taz, you clearly don't know much about montreal

Would you be willing to indicate which are willing to get sensual? Private message if you'd prefer. Thanks.

Not recommended.

Long-timers (like @Luv2play and me) know that the "winner" in the eternal Campus/Stock competition cycles and recycles over the years. What I miss are those years when both places (not to mention Taboo) all had large stables of dancers worth spending time with, and not just on the occasional weekend night or two!

That's been my experience more often than not. But I've never been to (or heard of) an event like this one.

Which episode? How many minutes into that episode? (There are those of us with hopelessly dirty minds who don't want to waste time....)

An escort I knew had a wonderful, gentle, but effective way of dealing with this. Shortly after the end of the 1st hour, he would ask "are you thinking of extending to a longer session?" (Seeing those words written out coldly in black and white probably doesn't convey the tone, which was all-important.)

The "Raphael" on this list is definitely not the one I wrote about (who may not, as I said, have been called Rafael). My "Rafael" had already stopped dancing by the time Alfie and Mam showed up at Stock.

Reminds me of a conversation I had around 15 years ago with an absolutely stunning (both body and face) dancer at Campus...I'm guessing, with 70% certainty, that his dancer name was Rafael...he had danced at Stock for a couple of years before he switched to Campus. I had always viewed him as aloof and unapproachable...my mistake; he turned out to be very friendly. In any case, we were comfortable enough with each other for him to discuss escorting with me (back then, many dancers were loathe to admit that they escorted). He told me that he only escorted when he visited the States. Why? "If you say $300 to someone from Montreal, he will faint dead away on the floor."

I wasn't relating much to this topic -- and then this story reminded me of the first time I had a private lap dance in Montreal. I sat stiffly on the bench, hands at my sides, while the dancer undressed and moved provocatively in front of me. Sensing my discomfort, he gently took my hands in his, placed them on his body, and said (in French) "you can touch me".

Looking forward to your report! Have fun!

I'm just the opposite. If the clothes don't start coming off during the first song, I stop at 1. Period. I'd guess that 99% of the time that's been a reliable indicator of whether the dancer is going to be generous with his body or tease me along hoping to make lots of $$ with minimum effort. They don't necessarily have to end up totally naked by the end of the 1st song , but the willingness to do so tells me everything.

I think I replied to a similar query by someone else a few months ago. Over several years I have set up multiple appointments with him, only to have him cancel at the last minute. On my last trip, he first asked to move our session one day later, on that day he asked to move the time a few hours later, then he canceled at the last minute because he "wasn't feeling well." Similar experiences in other years. He has done the same to a friend of mine a number of times. So while I can't speak to his skills, I would strongly recommend that you book a backup (which is what I do now). He has been using the same pictures for a very long time.

is there a helen stored somewhere to serve as the standard -- sort of like the standard meter which resided in Paris (I think) before we went atomic?

tell me that just dropped off the tip of your tongue 😀,,,shows the value of a liberal arts education

He's been around a long time. Experienced and good masseur. HE, MT with strict limits, but very good within those limits -- don't make the mistake of thinking things will go further. Perhaps a little too business-like and efficient for my tastes overall. I've written myself a note that an hour with him is good -- and enough. Hope that helps...I missed this when it was first posted.

Thanks very much for the report. Pretty much tallies with my experience in June. The same nostalgia that you spoke of will keep me going back, too, though I am cutting back to once a year. Previously I was going every June and August (and when I first discovered Montreal, and on through the great years around 2006-7, I could be found there 3-4 times a year!).

doesn't surprise me that this list includes guys who were highly regarded in their pre-OF life!

Once (and only once) had an episode of Micturition syncope in the bathroom after a session. I woke up to find myself lying peacefully on my side on the bathroom floor; no injury. Apparently I had been unconscious for only a very short time; my companion hadn't noticed my longer-than-usual absence. I suspect that I felt faint and lowered myself to the floor to avoid falling.

Thanks for posting these. Can you remind me what the VIP room is all about?

Yes! The ease of doing it has varied over the years, but in the past 5 years or so, a large proportion of the guys I met at Campus were available...and quite a few were advertising openly on rentmen. Same was true of Stock, though my knowledge there is second-hand. On my most recent visit, my first since those clubs changed ownership, I arranged my private entertainment outside of the clubs, so can't speak about the newest cohort of dancers. I did have a conversation with one dancer at Campus who -- when I told him that I once heard the DJ announce that dancers were available to take home -- responded "I could do that". If you search the forums, you will find many threads over the years dealing with this topic and the best way to make the approach.

Frenchjock has canceled on me 3 times in the past 4 years; I've never met him. He has also canceled on a friend of mine. Makes me think he's just a bot :). The last time he asked to move the time from 3 pm to 5 pm, assured me that 5 pm was definite, and then canceled at 4 pm. Knowing his track record, I had already covered myself with another alternative. Besthandsintown, on the other hand, is the real thing -- I can think of only 2 masseurs in 20 years as good as he is. Gives a real massage with extensive "sensual" elements. You should discuss what you're looking for erotically with him when booking -- his price goes up if you are interested in what he considers escort services (he also advertises on rentmen with a slightly different handle). He does not try to upsell you in the moment. I found his non-escort erotic massage more than enough. Highly recommended.

Just saw this topic. My reaction was the same as @Chads's above. Competent, but cold, including the sensual elements. Not what I expected from someone who also advertises on Rentmen. Will not repeat.

I asked Mario about this recently. He said you need to ring from downstairs and they send you the elevator. It lets you out near or behind the new refrigerators near Daddy's Corner.

Thanks for investigating and clarifying things for those of us not (yet) on the scene. For @Dj Anthony: the comments here are from long-time Stock afficionados who want to make sure you understand what's most important to them.
