One More Thing: Music in Movies and TV
As any of my close friends will attest, I don't know a damned thing about music. But I do know when I like it, and I especially like it when it's used to wonderful effect in cinema or television. So what's your favorite example(s) of such use? As usual, the rules are loose and fast. It can be a bone fide musical number, or a scene that simply uses music especially well (Is that a "score"? I have no idea about this stuff.) Anyway, here's my first entry. Add yours! More »

Scores Strip Club Sues New York for Police Corruption
Oh, Scores! They've just filed a lawsuit against the city of New York and the State Liquor Authority, saying that the police are corrupt! Actually, it's Scores West, the slightly trashier cousin of Scores East, the famous Howard Stern-patronized rumored-to-be-mobbed-up strip club, where some working gals were busted for prostitution last year. (Anecdotes I've heard from former Scores dancers confirm its place in hell.) The police probably are corrupt, but this is the same place that openly tolerates prostitution, and even had secret rooms in the Scores West location specifically for that purpose. More »

We'll Never Let You Forget About That One Night at the Strip Club
Five years after a visit to the Scores gentleman's club, Australia's prime minister Kevin Rudd is still catching hell. And it's all the fault of the New York Post! (Fellow Aussie and NYP editor Col Allan was the one who took him there.) Now that Rudd is campaigning to curb teenage drinking, his opponents are not going to let him forget about his own foibles. The prime minister has pointed that he is no "Captain Perfect," whoever that is. We're sure he's the only man in Australia to ever have gotten drunk at a strip club! Concludes an AP article, "Australians are relatively tolerant of excessive drinking. Former Prime Minister Bob Hawke held a Guinness World Record for speed beer drinking during his days as a Rhodes Scholar." [Associated Press]

Scores And Page Six Play Nice
Ever notice how Scores, the standard bearer of Manhattan strip clubs, gets such good coverage from Page Six? Not just the various career moves of the club's leaders, like today's item about former frontman Lonnie Hanover's jump to Rick's Cabaret, but all those celeb sightings in the club. Lindsay Lohan dances! Jean-Claude Van Damme gets beat up! Dennis Quaid loses his credit card!More »

Working at Scores: it's not all giving candy to school children, recovering lost dogs and exchanging glimpses of your breasts for charitable canned goods donations. Sometimes you are asked to exchange sex for money. The Daily News, always your best source for the strip club stories that matter to you, reports today on a lawsuit brought against the famed Manhattan institution by former cocktail waitress Francis Vargas, who charges that Scores managers are terribly sleazy and have some workplace boundary issues.

At Last, Baked Beans Will Give You Access To Strippers
Thanksgiving is almost here, which means it's time for us to think about helping those less fortunate than ourselves, and to plan our next trip to Scores. And now, thanks to the storied club's "Cans for Cans" program, we can ease our conscience and look at boobies at the same time. Between now and November 21, just show up at Scores (either location!) with a can of beans or a box of cereal or Saltines or whatever (plus the printout thing from their site!) and you get in for free.

Stripper Gets Dogs Back!
The Daily News continues to own the "human interest stories involving Scores strippers" beat (no wonder they're back on top—except for that little matter of how they're carrying so much bulk circ, but whatever!) with today's story of a dancer reunited with her two adorable dogs. More »

Lindsay Lohan Explores What Might Have Been
Having dated our share of strippers - some of us, that is - we know that life "on the pole" can be a bit taxing. From the lecherous management types who'll exploit your every vulnerability to the various wack-jobs with whom you'll share a dressing room, the entire profession is enough to leave a permanent bruise on the inner thigh of every Long Island girl lacking the wherewithal to manage an associates degree. Lindsay Lohan proves our point quite nicely."She got up on the stripper pole and began to dance with the Scores Girls with 400 customers cheering her on," said our source. "Then, she joined her entourage of 15 in the VIP area, and got lap dances from many of the girls, including a special double-dance from two strippers at once.She's got kids to feed and she's working her way through school. Really.
