It will be an interesting experiment for sure. I'm not sure how one can social distance while getting a lapdance. I'm certainly not ready to dip my toe into the water yet. I'll be waiting several more months before even considering anything like this.

Perhaps you could substitute something else...?

Still too risky for me. I'm waiting before visiting any bar including Swinging Richards. Will probably wait even longer before I'm comfortable with a lap dance.

I had booked a refundable trip to Atlanta (first time) for Memorial Day to take advantage of the long weekend, in hopes that Atlanta would have the first bars and strip clubs open by then. Alas, I cancelled my trip because Swinging Richards was not open. I'll try again for Labor Day ?

I am going to wait until Governor's reopen their mansion tours before I hit a bar! I will wait for a vaccine/treatment before getting another lapdance.

“I will wait for a vaccine/treatment before getting another lapdance.”

that’s likely to be a very long wait.

We have a flu vaccine yet 10,000’s Americans die of the flu each year. And yet, we go to Richard’s with little thought. Now, are you still planning to wait for a vaccine?

I get a flu vaccine every year... Covid19 has killed 95,000+ Americans... yes, I will wait.

Bjroosters in Atlanta has reopened but changed their hours and operating rules. They're open from 2-10 pm, and the private booths are closed. Haven't been myself, so can't report more than that. Swinging Richard's is opening June 4th.

Hm- opening at 2:30pm. Sounds like an opportunity for a late lunch.

Early Bird Special? No worms for me...

With the booths closed do they have go-go boys dancing? With the new hours what time do the boys dance?

[Chidude]

Anyone know if Swinging Richards will also have its VIP rooms closed like BJ Roosters when they reopen?

[EZEtoGRU]

Swinging Richards' re-opening has been postponed from June 4 to June 11 due to the curfew in place in Atlanta according to their website and FB page.

After getting a haircut nearby, I stopped in at bjroosters today about 3:15 to check it out. Since, as of today, they're allowed to operate as a bar, they are no longer opening early serving food. They apparently are now open from 4-12 pm, with socially distanced seating. I think I saw a total of 7 seats around the three sides of the bar, with additional seating spread through the club. As I understand it, they have one guy dancing at a time in a designated position. Sorry, don't know when the dancers start or the rules for interacting with them are.

I was thinking about heading there next weekend.

My favorite restaurant in ATL (and one of my faves in the world), BONES Steakhouse is open, so a weekend of good food and hot guys at Swingin Richards could be fun!

If I go I'll report back

Any reports?

[Chidude]

Anyone go to the re-opening last night?

[fresh]

No one.

Hi guys. Any word on Swinging Richards?. Long Island goes into phase 3 this Wednesday. Bars, and inside restaurants will open with social distancing at I believe 50 percent capicity. I'm due to start a new Tuesday night in Suffolk County at a Beach Bar with the Boyzz. I'm working now on what I need to do to make this work. Yes lap dances are going to be a challenge. Both dancer and customer wearing a mask. Will take temperatures of everyone before they enter the club. I think going forward for a while smaller-scale parties are going to be the way to go. Many of you may not be ready to take the plunge. But honestly my emails have been blowing up on when are we going to be back. . I think Manhattan is going to be a issue trying to get back once they enter phase 3. Can the Male Dancer events do a way less capacity of clients and dancers?. I read a article on a number of gay bars will not be opening up after the pandemic in Manhattan.

@Buff Daddy. As someone who frequents NYC gay bars, could you share the article or the names of those bars. Thanks

[Buff Daddy]

I believe it was in the NY Times. It came across my phone. They talked about Therapy, the Ritz, Henriettas, Boxers on what they are going through to try and stay open. Alabi's up in Harlem may close if this continues for a while longer. And possibly other bars as well. Many of these places were only hanging by a thin thread.

[Xavitv]

Boxers and The Ritz are somehow open.

[+ blondeq]

Possibly this article?
