Guest Papaphunk Posted July 17, 2011 Report Share Posted July 17, 2011 I thought this was pretty funny....hopefully no one takes offense to it.

Guest Lisacat Posted July 18, 2011 Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 I can't imagine trying to pole dance to stella blue or dark star. A bit of an absurd idea as most deadheads view their music as church music and well... But on that note.... quite funny one of my college girlfriends decided that on her birthday she wanted all of us to go to the strip club. No...not the male strippers but the ladies. So we went. This was before I was really into the music, but one of my dear deadhead friends went along, whom some of you know- also her first time at the nudy bar. About the second or third dancer comes out to sugar mag and then shakedown street. Needless to say my deadhead friend was pretty excited. I think we went back a couple more times. And on another funny note, later on that first time a dancer came out dressed as Minnie Mouse and did some pretty ugly things to the poor life-size stuffed Mickey (for those who know my friend, I'm sure you can imagine her utter disappointment). It took me quite some time before I could listen to shakedown street and not think of the strip club. And by way, we've seen that stripper a few times out at DSO shows. Not stripping.

Forum MVP chuckvegas Posted July 18, 2011 Forum MVP Report Share Posted July 18, 2011 The hippie pole dancers at the Ledges a few years back was pretty fun. But I agree that it might not be that viable a long-term business model. She wants money, what she wants... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octal Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 Maybe it would work with Shakedown? If you're poking around so far that you've found the heart, you know you're in way too deep into shakedown street... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Supplicated Velvet Thunder Posted July 19, 2011 Forum MVP Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 we're still kinda rolling with laughter about all this. when I first got into the Dead, I was still working for the smut peddlers, so a lot of our biz meetings were at strip clubs for lunch, and all I could ever think when I was there was "I wish they were getting naked to the Dead" it would have been a lot more fun. funny thing is, I know a lot of people in the Atlanta adult entertainment industry, and I really think there coulda been more support if he had maybe networked a little harder.... hehe. funny stuff, what a great article. Lisacat, THANK YOU for sharing, will be giggling for quite a while about poor Mickey and the reaction I am imagining her having, seriously, thank you!

BigDad Posted July 19, 2011 Report Share Posted July 19, 2011 After looking around the website where the original article is posted, it's clear that the whole thing is a joke - a funny joke, but a joke nonetheless. My fav article from that site is the one where some guys from String Cheese Incident are caught letting the air out of the tires on Phish's bus.
