On a brighter note: my brother absolutely crushed it on the mic earlier that night.

It's such a spacious venue and they padded everyone down and had metal detectors with security everywhere! It definitely felt safer then probably every other club I've ever been too! The vibe was so alive we decided to get a section and we were quickly taken to our spacious corner with couches and a table, the bottle service/servers need some work but it wasn't too bad! It was a great time and we had our own security guard also! I brought my sister here after her wedding (in her dress) and they brought her on stage, gave her a special shout-out & made it such a special time for her to enjoy.

This is very difficult for me ... I've been coming here…read moresince the mid 90's and actually worked here for a spell During college at Canisius in the late 90's. I adore Joe Marcella, and despite(me) being almost 50 now, he remembered me, and made me feel like a VIP, and put me at the front of the line. I love the youth and diversity, and had a wonderful night, felt totally my at home, but then felt sudden and bewildering betrayal. I'm just going to say I got taken advantage of by some of the unofficial staff. Please take into account I went without my partner, but came ready to dance and bleed $$$. I tipped minimum $11.00 per $9.00 drink, tried to give the bouncer an Extra $20, but I think he was legit police and denied taking it out of duty. I tipped the girl who charges the cover, double the cover, and was quick to buy random people drinks with no motive aside from friendliness. ANYHOW, I will not elaborate deeply in a public forum, but I was essentially robbed, went to staff for help, and the help sided with the perpetrators, and I was told to exit the premise immediately. It was beyond comprehension how the nefarious group actually seemed to believe their own lies. Albeit it comes with practice, they really "ACTED," as though they believed what they were telling Me. As I was essentially sober, I was meek and compliant, with the exception of spouting to one of the doorman, "Someone is going to regret this. Prior to getting into the medical profession I was in hospitality for over Two decades, and am very sensitive to a clients needs or mood, as well as the stress the staff feels. However, perhaps due to my professional capacity, I felt like I was trying harder to be polite and engage the staff, than they cared to try with me(granted they are sooo darn young). Perhaps, going from being a somewhat attractive dancer, to a barely noticed old man of 49, I might just not be worth chatting up anymore, or perhaps, the younger generation is more socially aloof in general. Anyhow, For many straight or Gay patrons Marcella always symbolized inclusive, unconditional acceptance and safety. Partly, it's difficult to go from being especially adored in my youth, to something of a non entity(at least in my mind) due to being older. My sensitivities aside, what had been yet another Magical Marcella evening, became an almost insurmountable emotional nightmare...... A bizarre almost twilight zone scenario.....that at the very least appeared to illuminate a cohesive union between the official security staff and a select group of hustlers angling their nefarious ends. Long story short, I got fleeced for almost $80.00, and was then told to leave, by the "Official," staff. So robbed, ignored cries for help from staff,and the guilty parties really seemed to revel in successfully conning me, and to add insult To injury, the perpetrators got To enjoy me being kicked out of the bar....while they enjoyed my property. More than anything I felt hurt....the irony is the thieves screwed themselves? I can be a fearsome enemy, but an even more intense friend.... For mere scraps they lost a potential ally/friend.... ironically, what they took was only about a tenth of what they could have yielded as my friend... It's so appallingly the apparent pleasure people get from a well executed con.....even if it's a fraction of what they could have received honestly My take away is that forgiveness, after the anger, if it can't be stopped, is crucial toward healing.

The Zone, how do I put this? I had fun. That could sum it all up and I could leave it at that,…read morebut I won't. The Zone sits in a strip mall on the outer rim of downtown Erie. In all honesty if you were not looking for this, you would not find it. Walking in it feels like you might be out of place. I kept looking around when I was in here to figure out what exactly was I standing in. It felt familiar, but yet not so much. Until my one friend said that it is like a Ponderosa was turned into a gay club. I think that hits it on the nail. It feels like it was a steakhouse at some point, whether or not it was truly a Ponderosa I can't be sure. But it does have that feel of some type of either buffet or family restaurant that was taken over by rainbows and turned into a dance club. It is kind of vibrant in here. We showed up on a Friday night which is their drag show night. Cover at the door and you walk in and it feels like it is super quiet, that is until you get out of the small corridor. We walked right up to the bar and ordered our drinks. Note: this is a cash only bar, so have some cash with you or hit up an ATM on your way here. The bartenders were amazing and handled the surge of customers throughout the night. Since there was a drag show happening we did not get to participate in any dancing and thus we did not move far from the bar area. That was alright by us, we actually got to see a lot of the ins and outs of this place by just sitting there. There is food available, not sure when the kitchen closes, but they do have menus and you can order throughout the night. On drag nights the bar gets hit at odd times with a surge of customers wanting a refill on their drinks. I might suggest you get two and wait for the crowd to dwindle. To me the mixed drinks felt a little on the small side, but they did the deed. I stuck with a margarita the whole night and it seemed like most people in here did not know what a margarita was. For a strip mall gay club, I definitely have had my ups and downs. But this one was an up, we enjoyed ourselves. As for the reviewer that said this is the "trashiest gay bar" they have ever been to in their life and begs to say that those that read the review "can't tell me they disagree." I disagree, I have been to some trashy gay bars and this does not hold a candle to them. Not a dis, just an observation.
