Favorite eldergay piano bars, current or past.

Some of my favorite evenings were spent in a piano bar sitting around a talented ivory-tickler and crooner. Tell us some of your favorites.

I spent a summer in Laguna Beach in 1999, and would frequent Main St. Bar. I don’t know if it’s still there but had good times 😊

Michaels Outpost in Houston is still open, and caters to the eldergay piano-loving crowd.

The Napoleon Club in Boston. Jack Brent, the pianist there, had studied with Broadway Legend, Dorothea Freitag. He played Gershwin with a real 20s sound to it.

Why can't I be one of those people who enjoys being elbow-to-elbow, shouting and holding a drink? Life would have been so much easier.

NYC still has the Monster, Uncle Charlies, the Townhouse, and of course, Marie's Crisis Cafe.

Did I overlook any?

Why not simply call them for what they are, OP?

Wrinkle rooms! That's what they are! Wrinkle rooms!

At the age of 50, I enjoy gay piano bars because I’m on the young side of things! I’ll flirt with the 70 year olds and let them buy me drinks.

How could anyone forget Brandy’s on the upper east side??

Just don't let them spike your drink, R9!

There used to be one on Maple Avenue in Dallas. It was a hoot!

I detest piano bars. I can’t be in one. Almost as bad as a karaoke bar. Who likes to hear average Joes sing? It’s so strange to me.

Past: Footlights in Detroit with its charming Art Deco interior
