Pole Dancers...

When was this? I haven't encountered a stripper since 1986. Have I missed anything?


Heh heh, before your time, 1976ish?

Now I bear an uncanny resemblance to the guy in the audience. :)

I don't know how you'd find the energy to play after a full set of stripping, but I do commend. I bet the ladies love that "Larry the electrician" theme. I assume there's plenty of industry jargon for innuendo. "Watch out ladies! He's going to upgrade your circuit to 30A, but has to turn off the juice to get started!"

I'm sure that would be a shocking experience for everyone concerned, Watso.

Sorry. Sorry. I'll get my coat.

Um yea, no, this ain't no disco body Watso. I know my limitations. Remember Chris Farley doing the male stripper character on Saturday Night Live? Nuff said lol. And actually Watso the standard electrician bumper sticker is: Electricians know how to remove your shorts, and turn you on. Something like that. The turn you on part I just made up. Hardy har har.
 
No pole dancers.....or strippers (at least not during the gig), but we did share the bill with a Les Girls styled show once. Best bunch of "ladies" you could care to encounter. Hilarious night. It was just a sheer bloody riot.

We had to share the dressing room too, so after the shows were done and dusted the bar manager (no doubt sensing the tone of the ensuing hilarity), called a lock in and we all attacked the bar with vigour. Needless to say that it went downhill from there. Straight guys borrowing the wardrobe and dressing up in drag. The "ladies" comparing appendages with band and crew. We even held a best male wet t-shirt comp.....alas, the band lost this one convincingly. One of the funniest nights I ever had while out gigging. Happy days.
 
Back in the mid '90's I was in a fairly popular band that headlined a Halloween show at a rather large venue. The band decided to dress in drag, so I went to the thrift shops and got myself a slinky little number and put my hair in pigtails ala Spice Girls. Never in my life, before or since have I been hit on, ogled and groped by so many women.
Oh, and the band was called 'The Happy Endings'.....made sense that night anyway.
 
I need to go to more 18th birthdays. 21st aren't quite as bad.

My birthday this year consisted of sitting on the sofa and playing Kerbal Space Program. I'm so extreme. I was thinking about pole dancers though. Does that count?

Had to google KSP. Forget the strippers- THAT'S the hardcore way to celebrate a birthday (and about as exciting as mine get these days too)!
 
The best I can can come up with is playing quite a few venues in the late 60s and early 70s that had Go Go girls. I don't remember any poles, but some did have cages. I hope this doesn't date me.

I played a strip joint once somewhere in Pennsylvania. They had a funny law that stated if your establishment didn't serve alcohol (you could bring your own) the girls could strip totally nude. It was a fun night.
 
I played Milwaukee Metalfest in 99, and while there weren't any strippers per se, there was a porn star booth in the main concorse with numerous very scantily clad women putting on a show all their own
 
It was quite a small venue last night and we ended up sat just off stage, near the pole (would you believe it :) )

So the first scantily clad lady (they had all their wonder-bits covered...but it was hardly worthwhile doing so really) gets up, she has a pair of these like platform high heel shoes on....real porn star heels...

Spins round...legs outstretched....

And misses our guitarists head with her heel by like, a couple of inches....he felt the wind, literally, from her shoe, and retired back a few feet.

We didn't take our camera...but I'm sure some photos will surface which I will post as and when.

Had this lady taken our guitarist out we figure it would have given Gorehead, the Grind Metal band, another idea to write a song about....they could have put it in their repertoire after their song 'Baby's Face, Smashed by a Mace".......

"Skewered Eye by a High Heel Shoe"

Imagine explaining that in A&E ...
