[d*mm*y 887]

No silly she was a stripper, NM there were hundreds of them "back in the day"

Gypsy Rose, you could drive right up with your snowmobile, park and go in. Everytime I drive by there I look to see if it's somehow magically re-opened.

There used to be a regular feature act at the Gypsy - with her pet tiger! I can't remember what she called herself...

holy crap you guys are really going down memory lane...too bad mine is not working today!

[THRacer 370]

Something like Jones or Jane if memory serves.

[mod 135639]

Jane Jones and the traveling circus (She played the flute and saxophone and had a giant python as well) the cat's (Syberian Tigers) name is gadesh. ... LOL... I ran a few clubs in my days.

LMAO, you have a very good memory! or you still have signed autograph pictures of her hanging on your wall in your office..LOL. I can remember clubs selling pictures, you could stand beside her and take a picture with her. Photo's were probably about ten bucks...yeah right bring that home AND smelling like a lady, with lip stick all smeared over yourself! yes sir... that's her, I watched her a couple of times....back in my younger days:rolleyes:

[d*mm*y 887]

Keep wanting to spill the beans on so many stories but I would blow my cover. What was the ladies name that brought the band up and had a fat chick help her lips sink (she sang to just was not always able to belt it out when she was upside on a poll etc...) She was blond thin acceptable implants?

[capitalman 3861]

Anyone ever see the Chick-Clits? 3 lesbian sex show....I saw them out west, cucumbers and all.

[Peachka 4334]

Valentino's was a fav in the late 80's. I remember getting polariods with Keisha, the big titted porn star.

[ulixestrojan 3757]

Memories - I used to love the sleaziness of the old Den. On a Saturday afternoon, I have fisted a girl, daty, bj, fs and the part-timers would party with you after their shift. As long as you tipped the doorman, bartender, waitress, they pretty much would leave you alone.

[ulixestrojan 3757]

Oh damn - remember Cheeks on Bank in Ottawa South. A dive but with really high mileage.

No, I use to own a strip club years ago and I also managed one in Hamilton for a year or so. I met Jane Jones at the LQ in Toronto... supposedly someone in the front row got clawed at one of her shows but that was just hearsay (Not sure if that ever happened).

[PistolPete 61421]

Wasn't Cheeks just over the bridge from Landsdowne park, heading south on the left hand side across Patty's Pub? If that was the name... I remember it well...just after Rider football games, or 67's junior A hockey at the Civic Centre.

[ekimout 188]

I always liked to go to Fanny's on Bank Street. A small club, but they had some outstanding talent.

[loneskater 25635]

These are also the same one I am aware of this side of Montreal.

 

It's actually Rigaud and it was a great place to stop on a trip to or from Montreal. It was always one of my favorite places, it was like Pigale but with full service.

 

The closest place that I'm aware of is called Cabaret in Grenville, QC near Hawkesbury. Hit and miss for talent, it's been awhile since i've checked it out.

There are two good clubs this side of Montreal, Hilltop in Vaudreuil/Dorion and Club Frontiere in Riviere Beaudette.

[Peachka 4334]

Anyone remember a club called the Red Den? It was located about where the Rideau Centre is now.

[ulixestrojan 3757]

Anyone remember the Raceway Tavern - I got my first SP BJ in the washroom - $10 and a beer. I think I was 17.

Ahhh Cheeks. A place with great memories and mammories. Glad to see I'm not the only one who misses that place.

[loneskater 25635]

If you're talking about the Grand Prix on the south shore in the St. Jean Richelieu area, it's been closed for years.

 

That Grand Prix was actually in Richelieu not St-Jean. It got busted. However there is another one smaller (Not sure the name) just on the next street corner from the Grand prix. There is also around 2 km down the highway, hidden in a small side street, a placed called Gentlemens club. Great choice of ladies. If anyone is heads that way and is interested in visiting just PM and I will give directions.

 

Finally also across from St-Jean in Iberville on Hwy 133 heading to the US border ther is anothe another strip club who's name will come back to me later. This is really different. First you go in a small cubicle for a dance with the lady. Then should you decide you want more she gives you some number card. You then go outside and up to the 2nd floor entrance. You are then led to a private room and the stripper joins you there. The upsatirs also doubles as a swingers club. Pretty unique.

Memory lane indeed. I have the same memory of the Raceway...also about 17-18.

one of my favourite SPs mentioned to me that she sometimes works at a strip club across the river from Hawksbury(anyone know which one this would be?) - she said it's very lucrative... hj,cbj in the private rooms. Money is in the turnaround time - you get 3 songs and then your out!

The name of this club accross the bridge from Hawkesbury is called The Cabaret, located in Grenville.

I went there before; who knows, maybe I saw your favorite SP!!

 

Girls rotate frequently; many are there only once and never to be seen again. Not sure it's that lucrative; it's a pretty quiet place, even Friday and Saturday evenings.

I loved Grand Prix. I spent a summer in Montreal years ago and ended up in Grand Prix 3 or 4 times. Some nights there were 20-25 beautiful young girls working and you would get whiplash trying to check them all out! It was weird the first time I went in - lots of guys sitting at tables, no girls dancing and lots of beautiful girls just standing around the perimeter of the room and the bar. They are not allowed to approach you so you have to initiate the conversation. The problem is there is no where to look (since they are everywhere) and everytime you look at one of them they think you want to talk to them and they start to come over. Once you get comfortable with the concept it is fun. Booths were similar to Riguad - small - but higher quality of ladies. Too bad it closed. The other place you mention in Iberville sounds intriguing. Is it still open?

Yes, I remember that. They used to take out fairly big ads in the Sun to promo the tiger angle. Actually saw the act one noon hour. Kind of felt sorry for the tiger. :???:
