Bars
Atlanta’s gay population has been gathering in bars and clubs since at least the 1950s, when the Tic Toc lounge was in business. More bars opened during the 1960s, and then after homosexual liberation took hold, the bar scene floourished. Although members of the LGBT+ communities felt welcomeed and safe in these spaces, the bars, their owners, and the patrons did experience discrimination, harassment, and violence.
“There was a lot more of a same-sex attracted bar culture back then because those were our safe places, and those were sort-of our collective centers. It’s where we could go and be ourselves with other people like us.”
Andrew Wood, June 24, 2014
Show Bars
“At one time, we had at least five show bars, doing shows six or seven nights a week. And they would contain eight to ten entertainers. There’s two to three male entertainers to undertake the production work, and the rest would be drag queens. You had choreographers, seamstresses, and costume designers for the prooduction work we did.”
Mr. Charlie Brown, March 26, 2019
“AIDS put a lot of people into a panic, and then a lot of people didn’t leave out as much. I think th Christmas may be our favorite time of year. We move all out to decorate. Here's a time-lapse video from a few years ago to present the transformation. We've added lots more since. Known for our hip and fun vibe, stop by us and you’ll meet new people you won’t detect other places. We have weekly and monthly special events, the city's finest karaoke (with more than 15,000 songs available), regular performative shows and a host of skilled DJs with the best music and videos. Named by the Logo Channel and Out Magazine as one of the best same-sex attracted bars in the world.

Auchmutey interviews Atlanta business-owner Frank Powell, who states, “Reputable gay people don’t carry signs in the streets. I spot those people on the news and they look like creatures out of a weird show. I would never do that.

“Certainly,” Jim Auchmutey of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution writes, Atlanta is “the gay oasis of the South—the place with the most gay bars and the most gay churches” of any metropolis in the southeastern United States. 1
