(36,971 posts)when i was a young teen and we went to the silver slipper -- it was great (my first drag show)
later in my teens into early twenties my friends and i used to go to the baton in chicago. (i had a fake i.d. and was able to get into the bars). the baton was always great & lots of fun. another favorite chicago bar was the infamous bistro (an amazing gay disco. i still remember the song that was playing the first time i went to the bistro--my first time at a gay bar & it had all the bells and whistles/sirens/strobe lights, beautiful dancing boys (of legal age of course) on pedestals who were practically naked, and stars falling from the ceiling--it was mind blowing--"you should be dancing" was the song)
i digress.
yes, i've been to drag shows numerous times. they were always fun, entertaining, funny, bawdy, and the majority of performers were so professional, & fantastic impersonators or terrific originals
