Seattle's Neighbors Danceclub in trouble

Add Comment

These are strange days indeed. It would seem that Seattle's popular Neighbors nightclub has run afoul of the building's owners and is engaged in a fight to remain open. Apparently the owners of the building that houses Neighbors have claimed that the building can be used for virtually anything but dancing. Strange that it took them 25 years to notice all of the illicit dancing.

A true cynic would probably see a conspiracy to evict and redevelop in an increasingly changing neighborhood - coincidentally (or not) putting another nail in the coffin of Capitol Hill's gay community.

But my guess is that the actual issue might be the incessant, suspicious, and baffling construction and reconstruction of every molecule in the club. I know of no other place that has remodeled the exact same spot in a club once every year. It has in fact become somewhat of a joke between me and my friends (who love the place) that there has to be some money laundering scheme going on there.

But who knows? Lets just keep our fingers crossed on this one.

Good times at Neighbours

Has anyone heard of a night club called Neighbours? It's in the Capitol Hill area in Seattle. I went there many years ago on a Thursday night for something they called Rock Lobster. It was one of the funnest times I've ever had at a club in that dreadful city. It was a night of music from the eighties and non-stop dancing. They played all my favorite songs from my childhood, and songs I hadn't heard at a club in decades. The dance floor was a melting pot of gay boys, straight drunk girls, slick guido-types, hipsters, freaks and everything in between; there was bald-headed guy doing a twirly dance all night long, I was told he's a regular. Neighbors is a Seattle institution in this formerly gay neighborhood, it's the kind of place that is predictable and feels like home. The bartenders are always friendly and the drinks stiff. It's Seattle's gay answer to Cheers. This is a place worth checking out if you're in the neighborhood on a Thursday night and you have a hankering for good eighties music and sweaty dancing. Has anyone else been to Neighbours?
