***** Saturday Drag and Dance
Posted: November 09, 2009
I was in Nashville for a conference by myself, decided to hit the bar solo. I had an amazing time. Best drag show I've seen, ever. Two large rooms--ones for drag shows, and drinking, the other's for dancing. There were as many guys as girls, (and almost same gay-straight ratio, though mostly straight girls). Ample seating room, though come early to get a table. The open tabs, 20.00 minimum.

***** Come out and PLAY!
Posted: October 21, 2009
My friends and I had a FABULOUS time at Play on Sunday nights for Drag Karaoke. Who doesn't love a 3-toothed Drag Queen doing Beyonce's "Soldia' Boy" followed by a lesbian rapping "Baby Got Back?" Great, cute staff, good drink prices, and a fun crowd make this a great place to go. Head to Tribe next-door for a pre-party cocktail, and then go sing your face off!

***** Worth going to.
Posted: October 05, 2009
I went to this bar on my 20th Bday. The show was pretty good. The drunks were too but way over priced. The dance floor was packed. they pulled me up on the stage and had everybody sing happy birthday to me. After that a ton of guys bought me drinks. Later after the bar closed, everybody goes to this restaurant that has great food. It was pretty cool. I liked this place and returned about a year later. Still pretty good.

***** Dance if you're gonna dance!
Posted: September 23, 2009
Was here on a Friday and Saturday night. Saturday was MUCH better, shirtless guys, pretty people - but I preferred the music on Friday night. The staff was quick to get drinks, and the music was popping - full dance floor both nights. While not NYC, it's the place to dance in Nashville!

***** Im not saying theyre racist but........
Posted: August 29, 2009
I've attended Play frequently over the past couple of years, and lately ive notice all these new strict rules that really dont make sense. This is supposed to be a club were people can come and express themselves without ridicule however, i see people getting kicked out for simply model walking to the beat of the music. Or theres a group of dancers that usually dance, ive seen them get kicked out just for dancing......i know huh dancing at a club go figure. Usually the people who get kicked out are black that what makes me think something is up with the manager. The music sucks, they could at least try yo mix it up, i mean that techno shit gets old after about 20 minutes...I woudnt recommend this club if you are visiting..
