East St. Louis, Illinois, USA

General Comments: Several small towns east of St. Louis offer much more erotic entertainment - including lap dances. The dancers tend to be nude and do topless lap dances. There tends to be lots of contact in these lap dances. The Wild Times is a free monthly Adult Entertainment Guide for St. Louis and can be found at most of the clubs. There are also many massage parlors, book stores, etc. An interesting web site is Alpha Productions, gossip and guide to E. St. Louis Clubs.

comments:	Nude, Lap dances, "whether you put down $1 or $100 be prepared have your face looking like a glazed donut. These chicks did not take economics 101. I had to push them away, it was too much. I even told them "there is nothing green on me" and they are still climbing on you. It was sick. best part was when a guy brought in his girlfriend and paid the strippers to do his girlfriend. It was very hot. I am never going back."
