Johnsons Fort Lauderdale (Wilton Manors)

Glad to hear about Matt’s return. Good news!

One caveat however.  The advert above indicates “Bigger, louder, hotter nights”.  Maybe it’s just me…but do we really need “louder” nights?  One of the big pluses at Johnson’s has always been the music not being out of control loud. I like spending time with the dancers and appreciate having the music at a level that allows for conversation. New look, new guys, and a new DJ are all great but I don’t need louder music. 
 

Pre-COVID when Twist still had dancers, the music used to be painfully loud. It was always problematic.

I agree!  I was there the past two Friday nights, and Matt turned up the volume after 9 pm and it was so loud that I had to leave because my ears started aching.   I had to apologize to my friend who wanted (actually had) to stay because his absolutely favorite bodybuilder dancer, Tony, does not come in until after 10 pm and he always does multiple private dances with him, but I am not going deaf just to see and feel dancers, no matter how hot they are.
