INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT
 
This Amendment No. 11 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the items set forth below of Amendment No. 5 filed on November 18, 2009 (“Amendment No. 5”), Amendment No. 6 filed on December 7, 2009 (“Amendment No. 6”), Amendment No. 7 filed on December 15, 2009 (“Amendment No. 7”), Amendment No. 8 filed on February 18, 2010 (“Amendment No. 8”), Amendment No. 9 filed on July 22, 2010 (“Amendment No. 9”), and Amendment No. 10 filed on August 6, 2010 (“Amendment No. 10”) (collectively, the “Prior Schedule 13Ds”), by (i) Lowrie Management, LLLP (“Lowrie Management”), Lowrie Investment Management, Inc. (“Lowrie Investment”), and Troy Lowrie (collectively, the “Original Reporting Persons”); (ii) LTD Investment Group, LLC, and Micheal Ocello (collectively, the “Rollover Reporting Persons”); (iii) Family Dog, LLC (“Parent”); and (iv) FD Acquisition Co. (“MergerSub” and, together with the Original Reporting Persons, the Rollover Reporting Persons and Parent, the “Reporting Persons”), relating to the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) of VCG Holding Corp., a Colorado corporation (the “Company”). This Amendment amends the information previously set forth in the Prior Schedule 13Ds in Items 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 below. There are no material changes to the information provided in Item 1 of the Prior Schedule 13Ds.
 
Originally, Lowrie Management filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a statement on Schedule 13D on March 31, 2005 (the “First Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 on April 10, 2006. Troy Lowrie filed with the SEC a separate statement on Schedule 13D and Amendment No. 1 thereto on the same dates as Lowrie Management filed the First Schedule 13D and Amendment No. 1 thereto. The Original Reporting Persons consolidated their Schedule 13D filings in Amendment No. 2 filed on November 14, 2007, as amended by Amendment No. 3 filed on September 29, 2009 by the Original Reporting Persons, and as further amended by Amendment No. 4 filed on November 3, 2009 by the Original Reporting Persons and the Rollover Reporting Persons.
 
Unless otherwise noted, capitalized terms used herein without definitions shall have the meanings assigned to them in Amendment No. 5.
 
Item 2.   Identity and Background
 
 Item 2 to the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(a), (b) and (c) This Amendment is being filed on behalf of each of the Reporting Persons pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, with respect to the shares of Common Stock described in this Amendment. The Reporting Persons are making a single joint amendment filing pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k)(1). The Reporting Persons are filing this Amendment because they may be deemed to be a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act, with respect to the transaction described in Item 4 of this Amendment. Except as expressly otherwise set forth in this Amendment, each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by any other Reporting Person or any other person.

Lowrie Management is a Colorado limited liability limited partnership and its principal business is to own and operate adult entertainment nightclubs at various locations throughout the United States. Lowrie Investment, is the General Partner of Lowrie Management, and Manager of Parent. Mr. Lowrie is the President of Lowrie Management, Lowrie Investment Management, Parent and MergerSub; the Chairman of the board of directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company; and the sole director of MergerSub. Micheal Ocello is the President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company and the Managing Member of LTD Investment Group, LLC. LTD Investment Group, LLC, a Missouri limited liability company, is a company that Mr. Ocello uses for his investment purposes. Parent, a Colorado limited liability company, is the sole owner of MergerSub and will be the holding company for the surviving corporation of the Merger (as defined in Item 4). MergerSub is a Colorado corporation and was formed to consummate the Merger with the Company.

For purposes of this Amendment, each of the Reporting Persons has an address at: c/o VCG Holding Corp., 390 Union Blvd., Suite 540, Lakewood, CO 80228.

Tom O’Hara, a mortgage banker with Affiliated Financial Group, Inc., Vali Lou Lowrie-Reed, a homemaker and Mr. Lowrie’s sister, and the Vali Lou Lowrie-Reed Trust, a trust for the sole benefit of Ms. Lowrie-Reed, were previously included among the Rollover Reporting Persons and the Reporting Persons. As of November 9, 2010, Mr. O’Hara, Ms. Lowrie-Reed and the Vali Lou Lowrie-Reed Trust have terminated their intent to participate in the transaction described in Item 4 of this Amendment and their participation in the Joint Filing Agreement, dated July 20, 2010 pursuant to an amendment thereto dated November 9, 2010, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 7.16 to this Amendment (the “Amendment to the Joint Filing Agreement”). In addition, the Power of Attorney, dated as of July 20, 2010, which appointed Mr. Lowrie as their attorney in fact to, among other things, execute and file a Schedule 13D and amendments thereto, has been terminated as such Power of Attorney relates to Mr. O’Hara, Ms. Lowrie-Reed and the Vali Lou Lowrie-Reed Trust. As result of the foregoing, Mr. O’Hara, Ms. Lowrie-Reed and the Vali Lou Lowrie-Reed Trust are excluded from the definitions of the Rollover Reporting Person and the Reporting Persons in this Amendment.
 
(d) and (e) During the last five years, no Reporting Person has been: (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors); or (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
 
(f) Messrs Lowrie and Ocello are citizens of the United States of America.
 
Item 3.   Source and Amounts of Funds or Other Consideration.
 
Item 3 to the Schedule 13D is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows::
 
The Reporting Persons’ beneficial holdings of the Company’s Common Stock were acquired (i) by the Reporting Persons prior to the Company’s initial public offering of securities; (ii) by Lowrie Management as a result of Lowrie Management’s July 1, 2003 election to convert the entire principal amount of a certain Convertible Promissory Note, dated June 30, 2002, together with accrued interest thereon at the conversion rate of $1.00 per share; (iii) by Lowrie Management in exchange for the cancellation of $10,000,000 of outstanding promissory notes held by Lowrie Management on October 30, 2007; (iv) by Mr. Lowrie, Mr. Ocello and LTD Investment Group, LLC, on behalf of Mr. Ocello, as consideration for their service as officers, directors and/or employees of the Company; (v) by Lowrie Management as consideration for the sale of certain nightclub properties by Lowrie Management to the Company; and (vii) by Lowrie Management through open market purchases.

With respect to the proposed transaction described in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D (which Item 4 is incorporated herein by reference), the Reporting Persons estimate that the amount of funds that would be required to purchase all of the shares of outstanding Common Stock to be converted in the Merger (as defined in Item 4) into the right to receive the Merger Consideration (as defined in Item 4) (other than shares held by the Company or the Reporting Persons) is approximately $25,000,000. The Reporting Persons anticipate that the financing necessary to consummate the Merger will come from a variety of sources, including, without limitation, the following: (i) a private third party equity financing by Parent; (ii) currently existing debt facility which is available to Lowrie Management and may be drawn upon, lent to or invested in Parent; and (iii) other mezzanine debt facilities that Parent expects to be available to Parent on commercially reasonable terms. The Reporting Persons currently expect that all other costs, expenses and liabilities of the Company arising out of or relating to the Merger shall be paid by the Company from cash available to the Company immediately prior to the Merger.

The information set forth in response to this Item 3 is qualified in its entirety by reference to Item 4, the Reaffirmed Proposal, the Reaffirmation Letter, the Merger, the Merger Consideration, the Fourth Extension Agreement, and the Merger Agreement, each as defined in Item 4, and each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.
 
Item 4 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
 
On November 3, 2009, Mr. Lowrie and Lowrie Management, on behalf of Parent, a then-unformed entity, presented to the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) a proposal to acquire, subject to certain conditions, all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company (other than that held by the Reporting Persons) for $2.10 per share in a cash merger transaction (the “Original Proposal”). Certain terms of the Original Proposal currently contemplated by the Reporting Persons are set forth in the letter to the Board of Directors (the “Original Proposal Letter”) and Summary of Proposed Transaction (the “Summary of Original Proposal”), each dated November 3, 2009. In connection with the Original Proposal, Mr. Lowrie formed Parent and MergerSub on November 6, 2009 by filing articles of organization and articles of incorporation, respectively, with the Colorado Secretary of State.
 
On November 3, 2009, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had formed a special committee solely of independent directors, as defined under the Nasdaq independence rules (the “Special Committee”), to consider the terms and conditions of the Original Proposal and to recommend to the Board of Directors whether to approve the Original Proposal. The Special Committee shortly thereafter retained separate legal and financial advisors to assist and advise it in connection with the Original Proposal.
 
Pursuant to the Original Proposal Letter, Mr. Lowrie and Lowrie Management held the Original Proposal open until November 18, 2009. To allow the Original Special Committee sufficient time to consider and review the Original Proposal, independently and with its legal and financial advisors, the Original Proposal was extended on November 17, 2009, December 4, 2009 and on December 14, 2009, the latter of which extended the Original Proposal until 5:00 p.m. M.S.T. on December 24, 2009.
 
On December 3, 2009, the Company, Parent, Mr. Lowrie and Lowrie Management executed a letter agreement (the “Standstill Agreement”). The Standstill Agreement was filed as Exhibit 7.08 to Amendment No. 6 and is incorporated herein by reference.
 
On December 16, 2009, the Special Committee met to review the Original Proposal, and following extensive discussion, the Special Committee determined that the terms of the Original Proposal were inadequate. In addition, on December 16, 2009, the Special Committee informed its financial advisors to contact any parties that had either previously expressed an interest or might potentially be interested in pursuing a transaction with the Company.
 
On February 16, 2010, the Company, Rick’s Cabaret International, Inc., a Texas corporation (“RCI”), Troy Lowrie and Lowrie Management entered into a non-binding (except as to certain provisions, including exclusivity and confidentiality) letter of intent (the “RCI Letter of Intent”). Pursuant to the RCI Letter of Intent, RCI agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company and the Company would merge with and into a RCI or a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of RCI (the “RCI Merger”).
 
As a result of the RCI Letter of Intent and the RCI Merger, the Reporting Persons were no longer a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act with the intent to acquire control of the Company.
 
However, the RCI Letter of Intent expired on March 31, 2010 and no merger agreement or other definitive documentation was entered into by the parties. On April 30, 2010, the Company announced that it had dissolved the Special Committee.
 
On July 20, 2010, Troy Lowrie and Lowrie Management, on behalf of Parent, reaffirmed to the Board of Directors its willingness to pursue the terms of its Original Proposal, pursuant to which Parent would acquire, subject to certain conditions, all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company (other than shares of Common Stock held by the Company or the Reporting Persons) for $2.10 per share in a cash merger transaction (the “Reaffirmed Proposal”). Certain terms of the Reaffirmed Proposal contemplated by the Reporting Persons are set forth in the letter to the Board of Directors (the “Reaffirmation Letter”) and Summary of the Proposed Transaction (the “Summary of Proposed Transaction”), each dated July 20, 2010.

On July 22, 2010, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had reconstituted the Special Committee solely with independent directors, as defined under the Nasdaq independence rules, consisting of George Sawicki, David Levine and Carolyn Romero, to consider the terms and conditions of the Reaffirmed Proposal and to recommend to the Board of Directors whether to approve the Reaffirmed Proposal. The Special Committee shortly thereafter retained separate legal and financial advisors to assist and advice it in connection with the Reaffirmed Proposal. On August 20, 2010, after consultation with its advisors, the Special Committee again determined that the terms of the Reaffirmed Proposal were currently inadequate.
 
Through a series of negotiations between Parent and the Special Committee, Parent agreed, among other things, to increase the purchase price per share to $2.25. On November 9, 2010, Parent and the Special Committee executed the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which Parent would acquire, through MergerSub and subject to certain conditions, all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company (other than shares of Common Stock held by the Company or the Reporting Persons) for $2.25 per share and would merge with and into the Company with the Company as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). The Merger Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 7.17 to this Amendment, is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Prior to the Merger, the Reporting Persons would contribute all of the shares of Common Stock owned by them to Parent in exchange for equity interests in Parent. In the Merger, the outstanding shares of Common Stock (other than those held by the Company and the Reporting Persons) would be converted into the right to receive a cash payment equal to $2.25 per share (the “Merger Consideration”). Shares of Common Stock held by Parent (other than the MergerSub) would be cancelled without any right to receive any cash payment. Each share of Common Stock held by MergerSub would be converted into one share of Common Stock in the Company after the consummation of the Merger. All outstanding employee stock options to purchase shares of Common Stock would be terminated and, if vested, converted into the right to receive in cash, for each share of Common Stock, subject to the employee stock option, the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price of the employee stock option, without interest.
 
Following consummation of the Merger: (i) all shares of Common Stock would be delisted from the Nasdaq Global Market; (ii) the Reporting Persons intend to deregister all shares of Common Stock as authorized by the Exchange Act and the Company would cease to be a reporting company; (iii) the Reporting Persons expect that the Company would continue to operate its business as currently conducted; (iv) all members of the Board of Directors of the Company, other than Mr. Lowrie, would resign as directors, and all officers of the Company, other than Mr. Lowrie, would resign as officers and Lowrie Investment, would be the sole manager of Parent, and Mr. Lowrie would be the sole officer and director of the Company.
 
Both the Merger Agreement and the Merger have been unanimously approved by the Board of Directors and the Special Committee. The Merger is also required to be approved by (i) the Company’s shareholders holding at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast (the “Company Requisite Vote”) and (ii) a majority of the votes actually cast at a special meeting of shareholders (the “Special Requisite Vote”), provided, however, that the votes cast by any of the Reporting Persons, any abstaining votes, and broker non-votes will not be taken into account for any purpose with regard to the Special Requisite Vote (e.g. in calculating votes cast in favor or total votes cast). The Reporting Persons collectively beneficially own approximately 31.5% of the total outstanding votes of Common Stock entitled to vote on the Merger as a single class and intend to vote for the Merger for the purposes of the Company Requisite Vote; however, such votes will not be counted towards the Special Requisite Vote.
 
The foregoing is a summary of the Merger Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement. A proxy statement will be distributed to shareholders upon completion thereof. Shareholders should read the Company’s proxy statement, the Merger Agreement and other relevant documents regarding the Merger filed with the SEC when they become available because they will contain important information relevant to the decision to approve the Merger. Shareholders will be able to receive these documents, as well as other documents filed by the Reporting Persons or Parent or its affiliates with respect to the Merger, free of charge at the Commission’s web site, www.sec.gov .
