[good ol boy]

I Was reading the thread about club 20. I thought Splash had /has dancers? are there any other clubs with dancers on Friday and Saturday nights???

 

Thanks

Splash definitely has dancers, pretty amazing ones, too. The athleticism is something right out of Cirque du Soleil. Thursday night is twink night, if that does anything for you.

It is definitely true that Splash, at times, has amazing go-go dancers. Their interaction with 'the public' is a bit limited though. Splash doesn't have a champagne room either, which is both a good and a bad thing. One of the Brazilian guys recently offered to give me oral s*x in the men's room for $50, but I declined. Twenty years ago I would probably have considered it.

 

In conclusion: nice eye candy, but not much more. It's a well-managed and fun bar/club though.

10 years? If you go to Splash you'll never recognize the place as it was done over a number of years ago. Main floor has 2 bars and a dance floor. There is a stage, sort of, and go-go boys dancing around the club and on the bars throughout the evening. No showtimes. Dancers start performing after 10PM. There is another bar and lounge downstairs with a shower stall behind the DJ. Very few showers these days.

 

Other NYC "go-go" venues include:

Chelsea: Rawhide (nightly), G-Lounge (Sunday), Rush (Saturday), Secret (Friday/Saturday), Club 20 (Sunday)

West Village: The Hangar (Saturday), The Monster (Tuesday/Saturday), Stonewall (Thursday)

East Village; The Urge (nightly), The Cock (Saturday), DTox (Sunday)

HK: HK (Saturday), Escuelita (Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday)

East Side; Evolve (Saturday), the Web (Friday, Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday)

 

There are dancers at club/party events around town. Check NEXT magazine ( a free bar guide) for more details on weekly or monthly events.

Thank you ED. Your knowledge on this subject is truly encyclopedic.

 

All I can add is a bit of history. Up until about 3 years ago, Splash had a number of lap dancers downstairs from about 7 to 10PM on Saturdays. In one of its periodic purges, Splash and a number of other clubs, some of them straight, were closed for allowing drug trades on the premise. Splash was soon absolved of that charge and reopened a day or so later. In the legal wrangling that arose in that incident, it was discovered that Splash did not have the required NYC cabaret license to permit lap dancing and rather than try to get that license in that highly charged environment, they just stopped the lap dancing.

Splash did used to have lap dancing. However, it wasn't much. From the one time I saw it it was in partially curtained area downstairs and basically anyone who wanted to could see patrons getting a dance. Needless to say as this is New York, no nudity.

 

Splash does have attractive go-go dancers and bar staff, but as a whole I think the venue is pretty lame and not worth the cover and cost of drinks.

But apparently there's free admission tonight, at least to those claiming to have a Manhunt membership. (I have no idea how they're going to patrol that one, short of asking for a print-out of your profile perhaps?)

Mr. James,

 

Thank you SO MUCH for your handy-dandy guide to all things flesh in NYC. It's appreciated greatly.

 

Excuse my ignorance, but what does "HK" stand for?

 

In your opinion, on a Saturday night, where would you go in NYC to see boys shaking it?

[Kevin Slater]

Excuse my ignorance, but what does "HK" stand for?

 

Hell's Kitchen (aka Clinton or Midtown West), roughly the area between 34th Street and 59th Streets, from 8th Avenue to the Hudson River.

Lord Slater,

 

The loud DUH you just heard in NYC came from my mouth up here in the Valley! THANK YOU! I knew once it was shared I would feel "silly" not knowing what it meant. It seems I may end up in HK tonight as Escuelita looks to be the best bet.

 

Thank you for your help!

Love Escuelita myself. Check out their website for upcoming events and 'theme nights' (http://www.w3.center-site-net.com/enyclub/index.asp). It's a late night place, though, not much going on before 11:00 p.m., except on Sundays when the amazing Harmonica Sunbeam hosts her comedy show.

[ValleyDwellerNorth]

Thanks Baron! I appreciate the info. Does anyone know of a place that gets "go-go"ing before 11? I need to shove money down a dude's pants but tomorrow night doesn't lend time for me to visit 20C.
