First of all, I want to say I love this bar. I go multiple times a week. However when they charge $50 to go in because they have a live DJ on a Friday night, it seems completely at odds with the mission statement posted on the wall in the patio. That statement talks about how hard we have fought to maintain our gay spaces and the respect we expect from people when they visit our gay spaces. I understand how bars need to make money but subcontracting party nights out to people who charge $50 a night prevents the regulars, who support this bar on the nights when there’s only 10 people in there, from being able to enjoy the weekend. I can get on board with $10 maybe even 15 if they have a decent DJ, but they have DJs every weekend. Some of them are free. I can’t understand how a bar that is free all week can justify $50 on a Friday night. I know from people who have worked there, they don’t make the money from those door charges, event planners do. So it doesn’t help support a business that is struggling in the rest of the week. When you look at how many people come on Sunday for the beer burst, and it’s free, it makes me think that there must be other ways for this bar to be successful without ripping people off at the door. Seven or eight dollars for a beer is already a lot of money. I will continue to come regularly when there is no door charge but it’s disappointing to have to go all the way to Palm Springs to go for a drink without a door charge on a weekend. When the doorman patronizingly says “it’s Palm Springs, we have no choice”, how come no other bar in the entire Coachella Valley is charging an entrance fee.?

I had an incredible time at the Boudoir Boys burlesque show! The show's production was top-notch, and the cast delivered an amazing performance. I highly recommend bringing this show back for another run - it's a must-see!Parking: Free parking options, both in the lot and on the street. However, it's worth noting that these spots can be limited, especially during peak hours or busy days.

Kid-friendliness: I mean I'm 28 but I'm sure some of the older gentlemen would say it's kid friendly for someone my age. ??
