It's Sunday night and the laundry is done, the dishes are stacked and your favorite cable show has come and gone. You could sleep quietly, and wait for Monday to come, or you could decide to meet the dreaded morning head on at the only game in town. Drag yourself out of bed and up to the bar, preparing yourself for a night of serious drag at the oldest gay bar in town. This crew of painted divas takes the dance floor for a midnight show, and afterwards, they carry on cabaret style in the smaller back room. Looking for a different kind of show? Don't worry, with the dancing happening in every pocket of the club, you'll catch the action upstairs, downstairs and on the patio. Sunday finds the city's hardest partiers like the glow stick-wielding breakbeat kids, a handful of old-school circuit boys and plenty of just your average locals getting down to an unpredictable mix of dance music spanning decades and genres. Don't try to put a label on anything here; you'll wreck your buzz. Relax and go with the flow, and before you know it, it's Monday. -- Lesa Kastanas

Had a blast..
By buriedgems on 02/22/2008
My girl & I went for the first time last sunday and we had a blast! The music was good and the drag show was very entertaining. Much props to all the performers, especially Lucious who held it down!!! I would definitely return. My only complaints are 1) they shouldn't allow smoking in the club...I smelled like an ashtray when I got home & 2) Straight men should be limited. Why do straight men go to a gay bar/club? To try to hit on a lesbian...? It's very disrespectful and annoying. We don't go to straight clubs, so stay out of ours!
