dancers changed for worse :(

Visited Taboo again, for first time in 2 years. Not much about the bar itself has changed. Price of beer went up from $5 to $5.50, but that seems to be around the going rate. Price of private dances up to $15/song from $12, but the songs seem longer. Still the same "decor" inside. The DJ and barman are quite cute and should always work shirtless, but don't, except for the DJ sometimes, but he's in his booth. Biggest change, and not for the better, is the dancers :( There are a FEW nice ones, such as one guy who is str8 and works on road building full-time but gives a great pvt show, as does his bi friend. They're the kind of guys you'd like to have as a friend, and if he wasn't str8, a fwb ;) Unfortunately, then there are the rest. The hottie of the bunch, is a guy who knows how hot he is and acts like he knows it, seeming to restrict his pvt dances to regulars who buy big blocks at a time. But the WORST guys are the others who act like the "cool clique" of high school girls that, if you decline an offer from one of the clique because he just doesn't do much for you, you get blacklisted and by the next time you visit, you'll spend most of the night alone, ignored even by guys who weren't there when you made your "faux pas." This clique is led by a dancer who's WAY past his twink expiration date and his "protege," maybe even son, who dances, acts, and dresses almost exactly the same, except he wears a backward baseball cap instead of a doo rag (worn by the older one to cover his baldness the way it looks) There are a couple cuties in the clique, and some butt-ugly ones, too, but if they're in the clique, they'll follow the clique's rules no matter what. The good thing is that I'll be at Taboo next year and these clique-y guys WON'T! And if YOU go, be sure to get pvt dances from the str8 guy and his bud! And ignore the hottie and the "girls" in the clique!
