I'm at a loss to figure out what this means. Will there be naked guys?  Dancers?  Possibilities for intimate interactions?  Or is this simply an addition to the bar scene on Ste. Catherine -- if that is, in fact, the location.

Who cares about drinks and  a fancy bar. The Boyz should be the main attraction. Not drinks not fancy glasses. Did I read it wrong?

That is a nice upgrade but are the dancers who l looking forward. Keep the place the same but hire new/more dancers.

… since most of us got our start in the cramped spaces known as toilet stalls and drank cheap beer from brown paper sacks. 

[mcbg22]

These spaces will only attract more groups of women looking for a night out. No thanks. 

[Dj Anthony]

Stock"N"Soda will be the perfect space to take a short break from the showroom and go have a drink with your favorite dancer in a quieter environment., street view, and change of atmosphere.

The VIP room will be the perfect space for anyone who is looking for more privacy and intimacy.  

The combination of the 3 spaces will create a diversified experience that will meet the more specific needs of the gay clientele.

Have faith, these people know what they are doing.

Not trying to be mean, A, but this is all very unclear. Streetview? Terrace?
An enclosed patio far from prying eyes as we want our privacy? Or did you get a permit for a terrace along the stretch of the building right in front? Like many other Village venues but the Stock erotica component subdued where women and children, strike that, where children roam? I note that hanging out in front was always an informal thing in summer but perhaps you are adding structure and drinkie-poo profit margins.
I would argue that the bustling street in front would not be particularly quiet.

I realize all will be revealed.

At Stock I’ve always been camera shy. Sometimes the feed zooms in not intending to make you a supporting character in a sex trade environment. An older guy on his own in a stripper bar can be one of a few things: an owner/ manager, a wandering inmate from a nearby home for the aged, or a dirty old punter. The busier and more mixed, the easier to blend in. The more sustainable the venue for financial operations.

A relatively small sub-clientele that buys dances can still circulate in relative obscurity. You don’t need a greenback-shade hankie in your back pocket to codify the agenda. You just need to find the target and make the moves. When it comes down do it, I don’t expect to be cokc-blokced. Imma fuss about change? Hell no. This is the new normal; get used to it.

Don’t like rubbing shoulders with women of a night on the town? Make your own neighbourhood if this one doesn’t suit you. Individualistic micro-level belly-aching and boycotting is not going to break this bar. All the more for the rest of us.

I don't think you understand what is "important" to us.

Every other bar on the street has a terrace or fancy drinks. We are there for dancers and you can't get that together, I don't care if theres a VIP room when there is no one worth spending that much on.  It's funny now you are basically saying, well if you want a nice experience like before, without drunk screaming women, get ready to pay lots more money for it.

Hard pass

One suggestion: bring back the Fleshjack Challenge. And more frequently too instead of once/twice a year. Stock Bar needs events like these to attract repeat visitors.

[SirBillybob]

Stock’n’Soda will be a separate regular bar adjacent to the club. Not a stripper venue. No entrance fee. It is mostly the footage that remains closed off currently, but no direct traffic from it to Stock. Just same building. 

Stock will be as per usual, just the version that is smaller due to the contiguous but separated area taken up by Stock’n’Soda.

The VIP zone in Stock will be a small area where some of the cubicles are. That aspect remains ambiguous and its terms of reference will likely evolve in due time

Yes very important point too! Based on the recent feeds, too many dancers these days don't even strip down to their underwear for their second dance on stage, whereas in the past the dancers would come out naked and hard for their second dance. Please instil rules so that dancers have to show D on stage.

I agree with other posters that Priority No 1 is improving the quality of the dancers and that priority No 2 is getting them naked on stage.  Having said that, let's give the club some time to work thru the issues.  They are clearly investing a lot of money into the club and they want it to be successful.  Let's give them a chance to make the changes and see where things are at in a few months time.  

[Buff Daddy]

Yes I agree 👍. We all like to vent our opinions. That's a good thing. Let's all see how things go. As we say in Italian. Piano Piano. Take it slow.  Buffdaddy may head up that way now that Amtrak is running to Montreal again.

I’ve done Amtrak before pandemic. Bus is much faster but the train is good to catch up on streaming etc which I do almost weekly in one sitting on my recliner for a few hours anyway. And it’s not assigned seating. I would take the Adirondack over a flight, as station locations MTL and NYC are superb for me.

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.

If you take the Montreal to NY trip you arrive at Penn Station just before 11pm. How does one check into a hotel at that time? Most won't hold reservations that late, unless I'm mistaken.
