Play Dance Bar

Fun Fun Fun

Went there for my birthday. Had freakin a blast. Great drag show. Love the club. Little crowded as the night went on. Thats what happens when you get older I guess.

Saturday nights are fun at PLAY - good DJs and friendly staff

Nashville is quite lucky in some ways - while we don't have a "lot" of gay clubs to choose from, and PLAY is really the only one to go dancing at, we're so lucky to have three great DJ's on staff there. Lately DJ stretch has been a favorite of ours, creating some pretty amazing mixes live on the floor. DJ Ron and DJ Lenny are also great guys and you can have a lot of fun no matter which is spinning. It's an 18+ club so the crowd can vary a lot depending on the night - sometimes GREAT energy, sometimes just so. There's a drag show in the other room of the bar so Bachelorette parties tend to be there a lot. So more of a mixed space than an "all gay" club, but a fun place. The bar staff is friendly. Tell Dennis in the dance bar that Josh and Cody sent you!

Highly Impressed

Loved this place. Went Nashville from memphis, Since they closed down backstreet in Memphis. Boy the club is something like Splash or Rush of NY. Did not expect a club in Tennessee would be that cool, should have visited Nashville much earlier. Love the lights. Guys are quite hot. Totally classy place. And the music was awesome.

Wasn't impressed

I believe something VERY strongly, if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all. But there are times when you need to speak the truth to people. First off, I love Nashville, always have. But Nashville is NOT Miami, it's NOT New York City, Toronto, San Francisco or even Montreal. That means this center of the universe attitude that some of the people in Nashville have, needs to be taken down two or three or even four notches. The club Play is an example of Nashville thinking too much of itself. Of course some of the bartenders are cute and the crowd is as well, but the attitude is not appropriate. I read some of the comments below and to be honest, there were too many straight girls, too many gay boys playing up the attitude, anyone who wasn't a gay white twink or a gaggle of girls hagging for one, seemed out of place. I was made to feel out of place. The only two upsides were that 1. They had pretty good music and 2. When you could get a bartender away from cruising a twink or gossiping with a nelly girl, the drinks were pretty good.

Its amazing. I loved the dancing and the show. It curtailed to gay people but totally awesome. Thursday night is lesbian night but they can be fun too
