Black is black...I want my money back
In the spirit of General Buck Turgidson in "Dr. Strangelove," I'd hate to make a judgement before all the facts are in, but if Black on the Friday night at midnight that I went was in any remote sense representative of the club scene, then those of you who extol the clubs so much can take that entire scene and shove it up your collective asses.
That place and that scene were, in my mind, fucked up beyond belief.
It wasn't just packed with ugly chicas, it was fucking [i]infested[/i] with ugly chicas. Wall to wall ugly chicas. God they were ugly. Ugly, and with fake smiles glued to their ugly faces. Ugh. Watching them all [b]TRY[/b] to writhe to the equally fucked up bad disco music -- music I thought was outlawed by the Geneva Conventions years ago -- was like watching dying fish flop around the bottom of a row boat. There was not one chica there I would have fucked with your dick. Any of your dicks.
The entire thing was as if Fellini had made "Satyricon" while being simultaneously dosed with bad LSD and food poisoning.
The only conceivable use for that place that I could see would be for a boys night out; a little group debauchery or whatever to bond with the buddies.
And it's not as though I've never been involved with the public auctioneering of sex. I've spent time hanging out on Baltimore's Block, prowling the streets and canals of Amsterdam, exploring Frankfurt's Eros Houses, and enjoying long evenings in San Juan's famous Black Angus whorehouse. I generally enjoy a good public sex market. But this was just plain shitty.
The only -- and I stress, ONLY -- redeeming feature of the visit was one of the dancers. She had a world-class ass. I mean [b][i]World Class[/i][/b]. It was an ass of the sort I routinely have with some fava beans and a good chianti. Fortunately, that ass was one of the last things I saw before I left, and it sort of lingered in my memory until I went to sleep.
But other than that, it was a total fucking waste.
I can't believe I paid 40 pesos for one beer, shitty music, and the worst visuals I've probably ever seen.
