....The club was just starting to get under way for the night. We spotted a free standing bar with three bar stools. This let us get a good view of wh...at was going on in the club . We had a third drink by now. There was a small stage with a pole that gave girls a place to dance to the music. For the most part there were no limitations to what they could do on the stage.
