A pre-stage ritual performed by male strippers, involving a rubber band and/or cock ring, and visual aids. The
stripper uses a visual aid (usually a skin magazine) and his hand in order to gain an errection. When the errection is acquired and is at its fullest, he traps the blood inside it (or "
ties off"), by placing the rubber band or cock ring, at the base of his
penis. This keeps his errection full while on stage. Especially if he is prone to "stage fright".
