The Connection (Closed Permanently)

(55 Ratings)
Male shower performers
One of the biggest dance clubs in Louisville, the Connection features male performers dancing in showers, a great drag show and an eclectic range of beat-driven music. A young and energetic crowd likes to frequent this spot, especially on Saturday night.

It's big, but not THAT big...

Connection is a big space, and it's structured a bit like Gay 90's in Minneapolis with lots of different spaces (a huge dance floor area, a big theatre for drag stuff, a "shower" bar, and DOC, an attached loungy space). I happened to go while the EOY pageant was going on, which meant a $10 cover and empty spaces everywhere but the theatre, which didn't have nearly enough seats in the gigantic space to accommodate the audience. The drinks were good though, and not too expensive. The shower boys didn't start 'til after midnight on a Friday, and there's only ONE shower, so the rest of the boys, and the guys who wanted to watch them, had to wait their turn.
