Porn Valley- I spoke to Joe Lerner, general manager for The Gallery, www.gallerygonelive.com, a strip club located in DeSoto Illinois. And Wednesday night is the big night for web crawlers because The Gallery offers a live wet T-shirt contest which starts airing around 9pm PT.

Besides that, the club is wired up with cameras and allows the viewer a look-see inside the dressing rooms, strippers included.

“As of yet there isn’t a strip club that has the concept we’re doing which is a live feed,” says Lerner. “And we’re doing this wet t-shirt promotion because it sparks peoples’ interest- ‘maybe I’ll check out the contest and see what the rest of the site is like.'” According to Lerner, viewers can have a two-day trial for $4.95.

“Basically the dressing room is wired up, and our next phase is we’ve got an apartment we’re going to be putting our dancers into,” adds Lerner. “So for people who have a great love for dancers and are fascinated by them, everything’s really live.”

The Gallery is a fully nude club and a “clean club,” Lerner emphasizes.

“We’re not afraid to put cameras in the dressing room and the club- the girls are awesome and most of them are college students,” says Lerner. “So we’re open from 8 to 2 every evening.”

According to Lerner the club is also working on a 4 am liquor license which would allow them to be open until 4 am on the weekends.

“We’re obviously proud of the club,” states Kerner, noting that The Gallery is also the scene for major pageants such as The Miss Nude World which has been held there the past three years.

“And recently we’ve had the Miss Nude United States pageant as well as The Miss Nude Exotic International pageant.”Lerner notes that Wicked contract girl Carmen Heart was featuring at the club recently; and the famous Dita Von Teese has also graced the runway.
