The much awaited for Nude Karaoke Story
In Nashville there is this spot call Printer's Alley and it was between downtown and our hotel. So one morning we decided to walk through and check it out. It looked like it could be a very cool place in the evenings. Lots of Jazz and Blues clubs. Then our friend's notice a a sign for "Live Nude Karaoke" . We thought it would be hysterical and we'd have to check it out later in the night. So fast forward 8 hrs, lots of bars and many beers later my husband and our friend S were feeling no pain. They were begging me and A to go check out the nude karaoke. The walk it's self was a riot b/c it took me and A both to keep S up right and then my H is off peeing in corners. I thought for sure we'd get arrested just getting there.
We walk into the club and they tell us its $20 per couple cover charge and BYOB. They pointed us to the little walk up window across the street to buy beer. Right then and there I knew it was a trap and tried to talk them out of it but no one would listen to me. We paid $30 for 2 6-packs of Budlight!!!!!! We go back to the club pay our cover charge and walk in to a full on seedy a$$ strip club!! I was like WTF?! Where is the Karaoke?!?! One of the strippers heard me and said "Baby we sing to you while we are on stage". Now I've been in my fair share of strip clubs and dont have anything against them but I was looking for some amateur drunks making an a$$ of themselves trying to sing not stripper by evening, hooker by night girls.
At this point I'm like well we might as well just sit here and drink our beers before we go back to the hotel. Well this one stripper came up to us and said it was a $5 per person charge to have beer in there. WHAT?! You charged us $40 to get in, had your friends sell us $30 six packs and now you want $20 more from us. No thanks! I said "no honey we aren't paying" and she walked away. At this point I realized that this is a totally nude strip club!!! Wow, haven't been in one of those since ever!! Up here we have a few topless bars in the city but in the county its not even completely topless. The next stripper to go up stopped by me and said she played a song just for me and she hopes I enjoyed it. It was Katy Perry's "I Kissed A Girl" HAHAHAHAHA she tried getting me on stage and I told her there wasn't enough beer in Nashville. One more girl went on stage when we were unkindly asked to leave the club by a big bounce for not paying the "corking" fee!!
D&J the place was called Brass Stable I think. It's literally the first place you come to when you turn onto Printer's Alley.
We are now out on the street with a 6 pack of over priced Budlight and I have a bladder that is about to burst. So B and I hopped in a cab to take us back the 2 blocks to our hotel. Then we decided we were hungry so we went to the Sheraton across the street to get something to eat. At some point B realizes he is trashed and needs to go to bed. He left me in the bar!!! I never thought I'd see the night were I got kicked out of strip club and left in a bar by my husband!!
Re: The much awaited for Nude Karaoke Story
hahaha Talk about false advertising! I can't believe they made you bring in your own drinks and then try and charge you for having them! The best part is that they said they would sing to you while they were on stage! tooo funny.
This cracked me up too. Strippers singing to themselves while on the pole does not equal nude karoke!
I'm sorry it turned out to be lame, but that is a pretty entertaining story!
I hope they were at least pretty and had nice bodies.
Tha'ts F'ed how they tricked you like that though!! I bet you weren't the only ones.
D&J I think I saw and went into as many bars as I physically could that weekend. How come no one mentions how freaking hilly it is?!?! Holy Crap my calves are still burning. I really wish we would have ended up at the Taylor Swift concert instead of nude karaoke. Tim McGraw and someone else joined her one stage the second night! Everyone down there was just so friendly. Much different then Baltimore. I think the one jerk of a Titans fan sat right behind us during the game. He was being a total douche. So I reported him via text message to the stadium b/c I was worried he was going to pick a fight with my friend. Security came right up and asked who was causing the problems. Well every other Titans fan in that section pointed to that guy!! It was great. When security kicked him out all the other Titan's fans started apologizing to us!!!!!!! Never in a million years would that have happened in Ravens stadium.
Koko- I did stay at the Sheraton and got a bite to eat. It was the best turkey club I've ever had!!!!!! I stayed for a few more drinks and then went back to our crappy best western hotel.
