The EndUp

On the plus side, great music, diverse crowd, attractive patio, nice dance-floor and the lesbian bartenders mix a potent drink. On the down side, the security are jerks, there are occasional problems with drug O.D.'s, the cover charge leans slightly towards expensive, and the crowd (particularly past 2am) can sometimes get crunchy, cranky, weird or a little pretentious. I've had some wonderful dance experiences here and some scandalous times. Fag Fridays, my favorite event here, has recently placed an ad that they will be leaving the End-Up in mid-October 2007.

You like to dance? This is the place! My gay and straight friends from all over the globe come here and we all party up a storm. You can go dancing on Sunday afternoon and it feels like a pumped up Saturday night. They have an outside patio with just enough sunlight to remind you it's only 3pm and your working up a sweat on the dance floor.

Where else can you party it up with a parking ticket's throw of the San Francisco Courthouse? The crowd is a diverse as a bacterial colony on a week-old doughnut. This is where young gay men came to grow up and grow old. Bring friends only if you're prepared to lose them.
