5th Review - "It's Like Being in Amanda and Todd's Living Room"

Lounge Regular Doug decided to write a second review, after visiting the Lounge 7 times

THE LOUNGE – IT GROWS ON YOU
On a drizzly Friday night at about 10:00 P.M. I decided to drive out to Mississauga and see the boys at The Lounge – a new male strip club. On my drive out with two friends, I began to question why I was doing so when there are a number of places I can go to in the “Village” which is within walking distance from my apartment. It was my seventh trip to the Lounge which does its male strip gig on Friday, Saturday and Monday nights. The other nights are devoted to Shemale strippers --- bad enough male strippers in Hazel Country but can you imagine shemales as well? Hazel would truly need a respirator to get over that one.
On my way back home, we talked a bit about the experience and the bottom line is that we enjoyed it a lot. Certainly, I was very content having experienced the best VIP dance ever with hot and horny Mello, one of the club’s boys. He was so hot that even at my age I jerked off when I got home just thinking about him. Also, I thought a lot about why the Lounge turns me on. On the surface, most indicators might point to the Lounge as a somewhat unsophisticated, unorganized place. It lends new meaning to the phrase “laid back”. The boys don’t continuously harass you if you are over 30 trying to coerce you into the VIP booths so they can make some cash. They too are “laid back”. Nick, the one waiter goes about his business in a quiet, unassuming and efficient manner. With some exceptions, one begins to wonder why the hosts, Amanda Taylor, of shemale fame or infamy and Todd Klinck, definitely of KINK fame and infamy don’t get a choreographer and whip some of these boys into shape --- professional dancers they are not and perhaps never will be. Amanda greets you at the door and then roams the room with her wireless mic announcing dancers and making comments. Klinck acts as the DJ and is constantly running back and forth from his station located up front close to the stage. In fact, he moves around so much your head starts to spin from watching him. Sounds crazy --- so what draws me to make the drive to sprawling Mississauga where you have to pack a lunch just to get across an intersection? Last night it hit me. It’s the very things that I just described. It’s the laid back attitude and ambiance and the homey atmosphere --- the not knowing what may come next. Just as an example, at one point last night, there were five naked boys being as creative as one’s imagination can fantasize --- all on stage at the same time with Amanda, the hostess egging them on, again with her portable mic in hand and her purse or suitcase slung over her shoulder. At another point, Klinck the KINK gets on stage, unfortunately fully dressed keeping you wondering what the hell he has going for him other than his claim to be a wicked junior master --- and starts to spank Toby, one of the hot dancers. Before you know it Steve – another dancer joins in and takes over beating Toby’s ass. Klinck better watch out or Steve make usurp his position as the king of young, dominant and ruthless MASTERS. To top it off, after Toby is standing there, legs and ass cheeks spread with a very noticeable red ass, Amanda announces that Mello, the hot horny one who gave me the best VIP dance ever is coming on stage to make it all better. Melo jumps up on the stage, places his mouth clearly over Toby’s ass and begins to kiss it --- making it all better. So, it’s a unique place and both Amanda and Todd are no fools. It’s obvious that they know what they are doing. After all, neither of them is a novice to the “sex” scene. They know what we perverts like, what turns our crank and that’s exactly what they deliver. It’s all those things that at first appear boring and banal that are anything but --- they make the place a success, at least from my perspective and I am no novice to the male strip club scene --- as a client, not a dancer --- after all who wants to watch a sixty year old strut whatever stuff he has left. It’s like being in Amanda and Todd's living room with some down to earth, real boys --- no attitude, aiming to please --- and please they do.I should mention Monday nights when they audition new dancers by holding an amateur night --- I have come to love them --- it’s a fun night, again, in a very laid back way.
Bottom line? I love the place. It’s real and the boys know what they are about and more important why us guys are sitting there. If one is looking for down to earth reality, in a casual setting, with hosts Taylor and Klinck being no fools and dancers that deliver, it’s worth a trip to Mississauga.
