Hell of a thing that the best night in the club's last ten years was the last one, but ain't that life?

Natasha sat with me briefly late Friday for respite. She was a bit overwhelmed by all the buzz. She was amazed to hear that back in the day every Thurs/Fri/Sat was humming like that.

The only thing that would make this closing a bang, would be for many of the all-time stars to make an appearance. 

"Star" was there, still looking awesome! We had a brief chat. Jenny showed up late. I would have loved to have seen Maude on stage one last time, but we can't have everything.

A special shoutout to longtime Friday afternoon shooter girl Kristie. She worked the bar all afternoon, danced three times with Captial Tease upstairs in the Glue Pot plus worked the crowd with collection buckets, and *then* went back to Barb's and worked the bar and waitressed until late. And looked stunning the whole time.

What a blast from the past! Austin was dancing tonight. Back after seven years! Unsurprisingly not as agile and svelte as I remember, but charming and attentive as ever.

I dropped by today, and saw Bridgette and Kitty, old times. 

Me too. One of my fondest Barb's memories was a duo with those two. I was the third wheel... 🙂

I had hoped to wish Bridgette all the best but somehow managed to miss her. The General may have been to blame for this. Probably!

Maybe it was me! I'm not sorry.  🙂

I know that Seven and Enigma are splitting shifts at BF.

Shifts are already hard to get at BF. Once Barb's closes, it will be harder still.

I guess some will stop dancing.

I believe that the last GP burlesque will be on the 29th. I was speaking with the organizer about that on Friday.

Ms Kroston Kreme (yum yum!) assured me today that it will be the 22nd. They went back and forth between 22nd and 29th, but too many of the troop had other engagements lined up for the 29th.

We are expected to file up and down the stairs whenever the GP action starts and stops. A busy night for coat-check.

PS Kroston Kreme aka Kristie is behind the bar this afternoon. It's a pity that the number of customers could be counted on an old-time butcher's left hand... Get down there!

what's it like Saturday afternoons ?

Saturday pm is slow, but there are some gems to be found. For instance Kitty and Bridget will be there on the 16th.

The Glue Pot Pub has had a short reprieve and will be open until the 30th.

Fri March 22nd will be the last night for Barb's, and also the last Burlesque night at the Glue Pot.

Had a nice session with Mila on Saturday night, a very sweet and "attentive" girl. Apparently she has been at Barbs for 5 years, however I have not met her before. Born in Croatia and also part Romanian. She has the Romanian dark eyes and hair. Loved her flirting eyes and eyebrows.

 

Mila is beautiful, statuesque and quite delightful. I will miss her.

She also has a sister Ruby who occasionally comes out to play.

Barbarella's.

Yes indeed. Sorry I missed that.

The two I didn't know were the only ones back the next (very snowy) day - Cynthia and Nena. Fun company indeed.

I dropped by for a warm cuppa on the way home before the storm hit yesterday. And what a lovely collection of beauties there were: Maria (on stage), Annabelle, Serenity, Rose, Diamond, Natasha, plus a couple I didn't know. Unfortunately I couldn't stay to play.

I hope everyone had fun and got home safely.

Heard this from a dancer that knows the manager.

Well I heard from an employee who knows the manager and the owner, and she says they have a valid lease through the summer.

So we still don't know yet - we'll find out some time.

Until then - enjoy!

When would be a good time to meet up with Candy?

I saw her briefly last summer, but couldn't stay around. I only get to Playmate very occasionally, and would be good to pick a time when she might be there.

She has only been back dancing for a couple of weeks and is a very friendly girl. 

Some of you will remember her from three years ago as Bambi.

Yes Devine, met her last night.

 

As did I this evening.  Just briefly, but I'll repeat. Good find, friends!

To tell the truth, I really met her yesterday evening, but was so entranced by Lacey on stage that I didn't really pay her sufficient attention. Ah, an embarrassment of riches ... not sad at all! 🙂

Later that evening I also had the pleasure of meeting Mina. She is also a very lovely young lady.

Might it have been Mila? Tall, slim and very pretty?

I had the extreme pleasure of meeting Lacey last night. Total natural beauty!

Confession time - I've been keeping her a secret! :-)

I had planned to visit last night but was delayed. Hoping to arrange to see some of my friends there soon! Even more tempting if Ariel is back on the scene....

You missed Ariel on Wednesday night...

I had planned to visit last night but was delayed.

We missed you.

No Ariel, but there was a Phoenix (albiet mostly busy).

Any more Ariel sightings? Has Natalie been bartending at 340 in recent weeks?

I haven't seen either lately.

I can't explain the lack of postings - but Cato *has* been missing lately... :-)

A surprisingly busy Monday evening tonight. I think I counted 12 lovelies - Katrina, Maria, Eva/Vanessa, Siya, Mila, Maddy, plus sundry others.

The goddess was in Saturday afternoon!

Indeed. As were other beauties - Kitty, Harley, Bridget, Adriana. Hmm, who have I forgotten?

What's new at Barb's? Any sign of Ariel? How's Phoenix?

Steph is relatively new, and gorgeous. Ditto for Enigma. Ariel is invisible (as one might expect). Phoenix is occasionally present, and always spectacular. She will rise again.

BTW, Cato, delenda est Carthago. Just sayin'...

PS Phoenix was present and looking spectacular as usual yesterday evening.

I dropped by Barb's for the turning of the year. A fairly quiet night, but great roster! I noticed Seven, Rachelle, Steph, Devan, Enigma and Via. Ashley was behind the bar. Barely any more customers than dancers plus staff - although I didn't stay late, and I imagine more coming in later.

Barb's management provided a free supper.

A fresh face, Jordan was on stage when I arrived and she was the only girl for me...

Glad to hear Jordan is still around. I enjoyed her company a few weeks ago.

I was in Saturday night, and spotted a beautiful spinner who goes by the intriguing name of Enigma. My wallet was bare, so only managed a one song sample, but hope to return for more some time.

Additional Comments:

I was disappointed not to see Phoenix. Has anyone seen her there recently?

She was there Saturday night.
