Silk Exotic - Juneau, Wisconsin - Dadio academic strip club critique; Wha'd'fuck?
This entry was posted on 3/18/2010 1:54 AM and is filed under Strip club academic critique, Wha'd'fuck.
It sounds like the current strip club digs in Juneau, Wisconsin have been there around three years. To be honest, I can't remember what the former place was called. I was by there one time on a motorcycle poker run a few years ago, but did not stop in. This latest presentation by the Silk Exotic family of strip clubs cuts quite an elaborate profile on the site. The ceilings are high, the bar is long, the place still smacks of "new." It seems like I remember a balcony up above, and I did not jot down that observation; probably preoccupied looking at the dancers. I might even be inclined to use the paradoxical phrase, "pleasantly gaudy." Its demeanor is so un-small-town, it stands out on the old-town main drag. It reminds me of a current Vietnamese construct I noticed in 'Nam recently of people building things just a bit...over the top, as if to say, "hey, look at me."
It strikes me as poetic that the temple-esque building stands right across from the...Dodge County Court House. On the front of the main door with tinted windows you will be greeted by a sign telling you about everything you can not do or wear in the place. None-the-less, I had on a clean black sweat shirt and a pair of new camouflage pants and they seemed glad to see me anyway.
Your first drink is free with a five dollar cover charge. From 3:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m. on Sunday through Thursday you can get two-for-one drinks. That's actually not bad considering strip club beers usually cost between four and five Bucks. Average it out and you get to see naked girls for about the same cost as you would spend in your neighborhood bar to look at fully clothed local chicks drinking too much.
The girls will dance topless and bottomless in this venue. But, we are talking about Juneau, Wisconsin - in the middle of no where. Which does lend itself to an obvious question, "Why put a strip club in Juneau?" I don't know. Perhaps I will take another trip up there to make a more thorough critique of the place.
I find the Silk Exotic Juneau pleasantly decadent. Aside from being in the obvious "Strip club academic critique" Category on my blog, the one aspect that has also earned the place a spot on my "Wha'd'fuck" Category, is their corny lap-dance facility. At least at its first impression it seems Orwellian-esque. The attendants who were dudes the couple different days I was there, were dressed to the nines. The lap dances are 20 Bucks and at times they offer two for one. But the caveat is, watch out the dancer does not start in the middle to late point of a song and count that as one.
In regards to said attendant/bouncer dudes: There is a station by the lap dance room that has a command terminal that rivals the monitors at N.A.S.A., complete with cheesy neon sign..."Lap Dances." Like a junior high dance chaperone, Mr. Well-dressed Dude will watch you and your dancer on one of many camera monitors. If hands get too close to dancer du jour, Well-dressed Dude will run in and apologetically tell you to behave yourself. When all is said and done, dancer chick has you pay Well-dressed Dude. I know most strip clubs have cameras, but there is something about this eerily techno setup that just creeps me out. Yikes! Wha'd'fuck?
I enjoyed my visit to the place; the bartender the day I was there is a nice guy who seemed to actually care if I had a nice time. The girls were all pleasant and not afraid to bare it all. Nor, I did not really feel bullied into tipping if I did not what to. All in all, I will have to fire up the teal and cream Harley and just happen to swing by the Silk Exotic Juneau in good weather season.
