This is hilarious...

BOISE, Idaho (Reuters) - A strip club in Boise, Idaho has found an artful way to prance past a city law that prohibits full nudity.

On what it calls Art Club Nights, the Erotic City strip club charges customers $15 for a sketch pad, pencil, and a chance to see completely naked women dancers.

In 2001 the Boise City Council passed an ordinance banning total nudity in public unless it had "serious artistic merit" -- an exemption meant to apply to plays, dance performances and art classes.

"We have a lot of people drawing some very good pictures," said Erotic City owner Chris Teague, who has posted many of the drawings around the club.

Teague said he got the idea when a customer asked if he could get in for free to sketch the dancers. Realizing that "art classes" were exempt from the law, Teague decided to bill Mondays and Tuesdays as art nights, and let the dancers go without their G-strings and pasties.

In the two months since they began, Art Club Nights have drawn full crowds of 60 people but no police citations, he said.

in italy we say: fatta la legge, trovato l'inganno.

the translation could be: done the law, found the trick...

Seminole County (where I live) has the same rules.

What one of the strip clubs does out here to get past that law is to put on Shakespeare plays. The most popular one is "Macbeth in the Nude."

I think I saw that place on HBO once or at least someone who used the same idea. I like the angry nude poetry readings.

Here in Britain there are no laws against it (not to my knowledge anyway). FREEDOM :P

Yes, it was on HBO Real Sex. Club Juana is the club. I drive by it every day on the way to work.

I need to mosey on down to FL again. For the arts of course.

[JR Boucicaut 3803]

LOL screw art. We'll go to Miami.

[mack 44]

That's fine by me. I'll come into Central FL then we can roadie down. That way I can stop by the Dollhouse and make my child support payments.

[JR Boucicaut 3803]

Hahaha...Kristin would kill me...nah, just kidding...

[mack 44]

Oh crap, I forgot she reads the board. By Dollhouse I mean that crazy new jersey shop where we'd be picking up MSH gear and various other things. And if they want to model them for us I'm not complaining.
