Playhouse DFW was weird

Post Body

I wrote the below as a comment on someoneā€™s old post, but I thought it deserved its own thread.

We got tickets for Friday 5/10 when single guys are allowed. We went, and it was pretty weird. Itā€™s a house, probably on an acre lot. It has neighbors, and even a church next door! They half-renovated and turned it into a sex club. They forced a meet& greet by not allowing play until they lock the doors (refuse further entry) at 11:00. The ā€œliving roomā€ is a dance floor with a bar (where they proudly display the bottle you brought and gave to the bartender). At the 11:00 announcement, the crowd ran to the other end of the house where the playrooms are.

I struggle for adjectivesā€¦.It was just kinda weird. It felt like a weird mix of a house party that was trying to be a club.

I canā€™t imagine that we will return.

This is a Redfin link to the actual house.

Yep. Itā€™s combined with the Vegas site.

Yep. Itā€™s a helluva drive for us.

A friend told me about The Villa Concord in NC, which sounds like a similar situation (a house remodeled to be a club).

It was marketed and sold as a LS clubā€¦new branch from LV. I expected a nonresidential atmosphere. I mean, the club promoter actually lives there. (Not guessing- he told me this). Where I come from, thereā€™s no gray area between clubs and house parties.

We donā€™t love Colette. It feels like a grimy, 90s strip clubā€¦.but we go, have met some good people, and have had fun. I couldnā€™t see us playing at playhouse.

Oh no! Sorry to hear. My opinion is you didnā€™t miss much. Cheers!

If I share some of my expensive whisky, thatā€™s one thing. When a bartender holds and apparently serves my expensive whisky without me presentā€¦.yeah, no.

Exactly. Just let things happen when they happen.

Iā€™m not sure how best to rate or comment on the crowd. Seemed average for the DFW LS crowd. There was a fair number - hard to gauge, but probably 75 folks? We didnā€™t match with anyone that night.

But those are parties. This was presented as a club.

So, ā€œweirdā€ is obviously subjective. I found it weird as fuck that I purchased tickets from a club that said it was branching here from Vegasā€¦.and when given the address, I show up in a lot and block neighborhood. Yep. Thatā€™s weird to me.

I found it weird that we were all herded into one end of this house until a certain time.

I found it weird that the whisky I brought was put up on a bar display. Especially when 25% of it disappeared through the night.

If none of that is weird to you, this thread isnā€™t for you. Cheers!

You really like to argue. I bet youā€™re fun at club house parties.

Yeahā€¦.if Iā€™m going to supply folks I donā€™t know at a club where I paid to go (which is already WTF), itā€™s not gonna be with the $100/bottle stuff. Thatā€™s just for me. 8-)
