It's not uncommon to see many gay people at many of the Scottsdale clubs. It seems all of the good clubs are in Scottsdale and although Phoenix does have quite a few gay bars, the gay population isn't isolated to a gay district like in some cities. They’ve resisted because the price was scraping. More recent years have seen a crush of developers wanting them to sell. It was just a couple doors down from Amsterdam. For years, Caven Enterprises has bought up the lands under and around their ubiquitous bars JR’s, TMC, Village Station/Station4/S4, Sue Ellen’s and even the lot housing undie outlet Skivvies. Phoenix has quite a few gay bars for sure, but I think one of my favorites closed long ago (Crowbar). I never had any complaints when it came to Texas nightlife. I remember going to Village Station quite a bit back in the 90's though. Not really a gay bar, but gay crowd nonetheless.
I was fortunate enough to have gotten the opportunity to frequent the legendary Starck Club back in the 80's. I used to live there in the 80's, but also frequented throughout the 90's and into 00's (lived at Fort Hood and then Austin). Plus they are all scattered in Dallas we have a block of bars on one street or very close by.ĭallas LGBT | Experience and Appreciate the Rich DiversityĮpisode 15, Season 4: Dallas, Texas | Video Clips, Watch Full Episodes Online 2 others in a strip mall, and some ts dive bar.
