1st Saturday's are great 4 Star Rating - Very good

I went to the club that is every 1st Saturday, Bass Bin BBQ. It was a chill vibe and there were at least as many women as men which always makes a party nice. The girls who throw the party are awesome. Good after hours club.

Pros: lotsa chicks, bumpin bass, after hours
