The Strippers’ Music

Abstract

At this ‘exotic dance club’ the strippers, or ‘exotic dancers’, were not paid by the owner. Instead, they had to pay both him and a disk jockey a fee, and part of their duties also included selling at least ten drinks per night. Their only income was the money they were able to induce their customers to give them. It was thus important for the strippers to have regular and generous customers in order to at least earn a more or less secure wage.
