Santa barbara gay clubs

The ladies paraded out onto the elevated stage, hair teased to oversized bouffants, gaudy jewelry adorning every ear and wrist. Glamour personified traipsed across the stage, lip-syncing and dancing. Although the Kitty is widely understood as the santa club for dancing any night of the club, a Sunday night at the Wildcat currently is the only place that comes close to resembling gay nightlife in Santa Barbara.

And while there are many players who have come together to make this a reality, Robert Mendez is the prime mover behind Red Room, the now six-year-old weekly gay night. During his santa years there, Mendez worked closely with his manager to promote Friday and Saturday nights, invaluable on-the-job club that helped him a few years down the road at Clubwhere he had his first nongay-bar promo gig.

Enter the Wildcat. From the bouncers to the bartenders to the deejays, the Wildcat exudes the welcoming atmosphere Mendez had been looking for. I think people feel it when they walk in the doors. Those loud pleas for a gay bar reportedly are being answered. Mendez has long contended that the main hurdles to getting a club here are funding and the logistics of obtaining dance and liquor permits, so with those obstacles seemingly taken care of, Santa Barbara looks to be on its way to having its very own gay bar.

No matter what may come of that new club, Mendez will continue to work diligently to create the absolute best party anyone could ask for. I have the community that relies on me to make sure that they have someplace gay go and have a good time and feel safe. Please note this login is to submit events or press releases.
