Ageha
Ageha, one of the largest clubs in Asia. It's so large in fact that it even has an outdoor pool and a mini food court (which served kebobs that were the highlight of my night).
When you enter, there's a pat down search with employees wearing SECURITY labeled uniforms. They do so not to check for weapons or drugs, but because it gives the club a north american legitimacy, a coolness.
Inside you have lots of cute, thin Japanese girls and tons of guys, who my friends and I call Rei Keichi, a hairstylist we know who has that scraggly goatee and mustache particular to Asians and dyed orange hair popular with Asians.
About midway through the night (the night starts at 1 am) the music shuts down and projection screens display a highlight reel that looks like a news broadcast or documentary. It's of a troupe of showgirls -- basically strippers -- making international headlines (Paris, London, New York). Apparently, and I wouldn't know this of course, they perform at Ageha on Saturdays and strip/dance to a theme, last week was office lady workers and this week was an Egyptian thing.
The four dancers kept to the four corners of the bar square and rotated so everyone had a good oogle.
Here is a really crappy video I took. Don't complain because I had to endure the grimace of a nearby bouncer and accept that all of those around me pegged me as a pervert. I did it for you folks. For you.
