Covid-19 first broke out here in Albany New York. This favorite my place to go to go dance get some cardio. Unfortunately I was very disappointed the night that I went you couldn't dance you had to order some food sit down in a bar and not move it made no sense to even have the bar open at that time I don't know how they're running the bar now since I haven't been since they came out with the vaccine. I'm just hoping they open up the second floor or even just the first floor allowing us to socialize. I am not gay I am straight but I love all the people there and they're very friendly and nice no matter who they are or what they choose to be I accept people who they are. I would like upcoming events if they're going to have any this summer. And you could definitely just email me. Please don't disappointment for the summer of covid-19 another year round
