Mixed feelings about this place
Let's just get this out of the way BS is popular so they're doing something right or people just don't have any sense. Maybe it's different on nights that arent so busy but each time I went it was a full crowd. Very long line unless you get there early. Extremely pretentious and cliquish. I could just feel my self rub up against all the walls people had up in this place. WTF relax and allow your self to be open to strangers for a moment anyways. Also if you're a dancer at heart child don't even bother coming here on a busy night because there won't even be enough room for you to do the two step much less stand in one spot with out being pushed from one side to the other. I never understood why people pay good money to stand in a corner and be shoved all over the place then go home but hey it's your money. The only good thing I can say about BS is go when its not so busy and the staff was friendly.
bartenders not nice
It's a ok place but to much smoke for the non-smokers, also the A/C is never no to hot in there, all the bartenders all not friendly in any way. They think that are all thing but really they are assholes. And the restrooms are really gross. Cum and piss all over the floors. Most of thetime. Gross gross.
Hidden club in the desert
It's a bit hard to find. I popped it in my GPS and I ended up on a desolate street. I got out and walked around for a bit until I realized it was back down an alley. When I got there it was worth it. The place is small but fun. It has an average sized indoor area and it looks like you can go upstairs but I've never seen anyone go up there. It has a small patio out the back and out the front. The crowd is 20-30 somethings. There is a dance floor and they have very cute dancers. It's a nice short distance from Forbidden so if either place is dead you can go back and fourth. OH! Drinks are very cheap!
Friendly and Fun
Had a great time at Karaoke night.... what a friendly place.
My fav in Phoenix
As a Phoenix local this has been my favorite gay bar for a couple of years now. Most of the bartenders are awesome, drinks are strong and cheap, and the music is good. Wednesday nights are fun if you want cheap drinks, dancing, and a great mix of gays from twinks to dads. The only complaint I have about BS is on Saturday nights when the place tends to become a bit too crowded making it difficult to get a drink, and has an unusually large number of obnoxious straight people with an attitude.
