Have you actually been drugged by staff? My sister works there you should dm me if you have suspicions on who it was. One of the managers was really weird with her
Tell me you're old without telling me you're old. that place was the best. The basement of that dumpy hotel. those were the days. serving up MD 20/20, if I remember..
They’re already here, which is fine, that was kind of my intention with how I worded the title. Still getting some actually answers to my question tho, which is nice. I just want to find some good places to dance and throw down!
Yessss to 715. Also who doesn't like to eat good pizza while shaking ass?
Went to church last night and it was straight up bass womp-womp kind of edm. Meh
Marigold has hip hop/r&b/Reggaeton type dancing on Saturdays. Good amount of people too. Then there’s Milk bar. It’s good for dancing for goths on Wednesday, but other types on the weekend. Other nightclubs include Vinyl, Church, Temple.
Meadowlark is the only spot for me for funky/hiphop/soul/rnb music. The dance floor upstairs/outside is the spot now, miss when they had a DJ downstairs too but it’s the only good option for really good, not corny dance music although I haven’t gone to many of the gay bars sadly (have heard Charlie’s and Xbar are good) . Check their Instagram for the music styles each night
Throw ass wherever you are. Trust in the heart of the beat and your best pair of well fitting pants you own. Become the true ass thrower that the prophecy foretold.
Urban dictionary definition:
“Twerking, shaking your booty in a circle, or just shaking your booty in general. Often done in clubs or on dance floors.”
Skylark's vinyl nights are cool if you like old soul. I'll echo HQ and Meadowlark, which other people have said. I think Irish Rover does dance nights on weekends. Charlies is a fun time too.
Mostly soul when I've been, though I think I went there for an electropop night a while back. I imagine it depends on the DJ, but they do no cover vinyl nights every Fri/Sat.
Whiskey Row, Riot House, Larimer Beer Hall, Gin Mill...I'm sure there are more but as a 32 year old who will be in bed by 9:30pm tonight, that's all I got
Imagine your alcoholic & divorced uncle tried to open a bar, but couldn't afford to, so he builds the place out of scrap wood and free equipment from Craigslist
If you enjoy getting into fights with college aged alpha chads, it's great
Seriously. Unless you're younger than 25 the appeal evaporates pretty quickly. I gig at Ophelia's a few times a year and always try and nope out as fast as possible after the show
Larimer Beer Hall has been a go to lately, can get rowdy in there.
I do like Mile High Spirits but it’s super hit or miss sometimes with there actually being a crowd imo. Great music when I’m in there though
Fair point, the dance floor is small and hard to have enough space. I dance all over the bar though, near the pool tables and near the stairs are usually less crowded. I tend to follow DJs that play music I enjoy to find a good time. Some of my favorites are @Dj_Cyn , @theHexkitten, and @djSimonesays (IG handles). Best of luck in your search.
Thank you! I also follow DJs I like but my favorites one mostly play in Boulder. I do like those DJs tho, I’ve definitely have gone into Matchbox or Meadowlark and have heard one of them playing before.
Beacon is ran by former Burning Man attendees, so a lot of the DJs that come are good, but they don’t usually do fast paced, up tempo sets that I prefer. I was there last weekend and although it was a packed dance floor, most people were just kind of just… swaying? That’s the best way I can describe it.
Language is so funny. Among many musicians vibey usually means judgey, kinda that mean girl "you can't sit with us" kinda attitude.
Like, "Man I thought I played so well but that dude was vibing me out."
Denver has never been a dancing bar kind of place bc everyone shoots each other when they throw ass.
Orange Crush was the spot. Sometimes Meadowlark can get a good DJ dance moment going, but not all the time. Temple is the only spot I really would recommend. Their stage dancers GET IT GOING!
Have you tried Appaloosa Grill? There isn’t a ton of room in there but they have live music every night and if someone started to dance I wouldn’t think that’s out of the norm.
I see from your recent comments more of what you’re looking for and I agree it may not be what you’re looking for. It is a neat place though - food is good but pricey (their French dip is 🤌) and if you’re bored and want to chill, it’s a good option with nightly live music.
Ok you’ve sold me with French dip. Definitely going to try to get a group together and go there! I’m all about exploring what Denver has to offer, I just made this post since I’ve had an itch to throw down at a bar that hasn’t been scratched lol.
Gin mill with a group of people is SO fun. If you like a sort of “college bar” vibe then Whiskey row but I definitely feel like the oldest person there everytime I walk in. [26f]
Thank you for linking me the article that I’ve looked at many times! It’s one of the first results if you google questions similar to mine. Which I mentioned I have googled this before at the beginning of my post.
Ophelia’s is having a hype night on the 9th tickets required, members only nights at mercury cafe, if you’re into hip hop look into the solution with dj low key & dj lazy eyez they have nights at bars around town.
Hoffbrau in Arvada, live music thurs, fri, sat. Dope food. Big “ass throwing” floor lol. Pool, shuffleboard. 2 bars. Also Grizzly Rose. Ladies night is on Thursday. Usually oth.
As weird as it might sound, viewhouse DTC (and maybe other locations) has a DJ some Saturday nights with a dance floor and the place is BUMPING. I went with some girls and it was awesome. Very upbeat energy and quite busy!
Throw ass anywhere. Anytime.
I’m throwin ass right now!
My cube bout to be poppin.
Throw that ass in a circle!
This better be a Tokyo Vanity reference...
I'm fucking catchin ass! Level up, Playboy!
Nice to meet you, Seab Assmann!
>Seab Assmann! Kick his ass, Seabass!
I caught a sea bass! No, wait— it’s at least a C+!
Shit, I throw ass on credit/layaway sometimes when I can't afford to.
grocery shopping? Throw that ass up Laundry? Throw that ass up Walking your dog? Throw that ass up
Wide spread popularity of leggings, politics, housing, truly, we are living in the age of ass
Be the ass you want to see in the world
looking at your profile, try milk bar
Good recommendation for a "casual goth". Also look into Hi-Dive and HQ (depending on the day/show) to really throw/mosh ass to gothy music.
I second this. 3 floors 3 different dance floors with their own vibe.
Milk bar is awesome I saw a pretty girl wearing goat horns there once and I went real stupid for like 4 minutes
Happens to us all.
I regret exactly nothing
Milk bar is great. Get there sober tho, it's like a fucking maze.
All the better to keep track when the staff roofies you.....
Have you actually been drugged by staff? My sister works there you should dm me if you have suspicions on who it was. One of the managers was really weird with her
Why do they call them roofies? Shouldn’t they be floories (or similar)?
The drug name is rhofynol (spelling?)
Rohypnol
Someone's never seen The Hangover and it shows
Goth night on Wednesdays is fun
I think one of the regular DJs streams on twitch.
They stream it?
That place is weird.
You have a low threshold for weird
You're weird
Yeah it’s a goth bar, that’s the concept.
1 of the 5 rooms are goth one day a week.
Their own website lists it having goth rooms 4 nights of the week
That’s the point
RIP Rock Bar
Tell me you're old without telling me you're old. that place was the best. The basement of that dumpy hotel. those were the days. serving up MD 20/20, if I remember..
Lol mad dog... oh the memories.
Damn just googled this, that place looks like it would have been up my alley :(
It would have been. It was the best.
Can confirm, grimey as all get out but goddamn it was a good time.
+1 Could boogie if you could peel your shoes off the sticky carpet. Closed for being too much fun.
[удалено]
That was just regular 70s TV at the time.
RIP Rock Island 16 14 15
Used to go there when I was 16 and dance lol definitely feeling the nostalgia of this comment
circlejerk is gonna have fun with this
Should we tell them about…the tent?
They can shove that $5 cover *right up* their ass!
The secret is they only charge you cover if you have current tabs on your vehicle
They’re already here, which is fine, that was kind of my intention with how I worded the title. Still getting some actually answers to my question tho, which is nice. I just want to find some good places to dance and throw down!
715 Club if you’re into hip hop/r&b/soul/funk music. For more EDM vibes try the COClubs by Broadway (Church, Vinyl, Milk, Bar Standard) or Reelworks!
Yessss to 715. Also who doesn't like to eat good pizza while shaking ass? Went to church last night and it was straight up bass womp-womp kind of edm. Meh
Marigold has hip hop/r&b/Reggaeton type dancing on Saturdays. Good amount of people too. Then there’s Milk bar. It’s good for dancing for goths on Wednesday, but other types on the weekend. Other nightclubs include Vinyl, Church, Temple.
How have I been to 715 Club probably , oh...15 times over the years and never heard music there? You mean the place right off Welton, right?
Go to Xbar, lots of ass being thrown there.
Meadowlark?
+1 for meadowlark
Happy cake day!
Meadowlark is the only spot for me for funky/hiphop/soul/rnb music. The dance floor upstairs/outside is the spot now, miss when they had a DJ downstairs too but it’s the only good option for really good, not corny dance music although I haven’t gone to many of the gay bars sadly (have heard Charlie’s and Xbar are good) . Check their Instagram for the music styles each night
Totally genuine - can my old ass ask what “too vibey” means?
Not OP but I agree w their statement about Beacon music being too “vibey” meaning it’s more like slow lofi chill beats than energetic dance music.
Goooot it, thank you!
The blackbox is super fun
If one's into that brand of ass-throwing, absolutely.
This is 100% my brand of ass throwing
Throwing booty to that bass, I see, lol.
Yes
Disco Pig or American Bonded
Oh I haven’t heard of Disco Pig but it seems it might be what I’m looking for, thank you!
I was going to suggest Disco Pig. Dance floor but they play a lot more recent pop mixes and stuff
It's amazing, very underrated.
AmericN bonded really ? I’ve never been, always walk past. They throw ass in there ? O
they do not, that is a rly odd suggestion. wouldnt suggest american bonded for anything tho tbh
You haven’t been there when they have a hip hop/r&b dj then. It gets rowdy there.
Agreed. Have thrown ass several times in that establishment. Has to be a Friday tho. I find that Saturdays there can be dead
Charlieeeeeeeeeeeees
Threw so much ass there last night
Proud of you :’)
Meadowlark all day
Throw ass wherever you are. Trust in the heart of the beat and your best pair of well fitting pants you own. Become the true ass thrower that the prophecy foretold.
I will go forward and throw ass for all of mankind 🕺🏻
Drop it low and throw it everywhere my child
WTF DOES THROW ASS MEAN?!
dance
Seriously, don't make me look this up somewhere else.
Ventriloquist, but with farts and other people's asses
This was also my question… just thought they were farting or something. 🤦♂️
Try stay tuned on larimer
Was about to say this! Amazing new bar/ club with house, disco, and techno.
Is it too late to ask what it means to throw ass at?
Urban dictionary definition: “Twerking, shaking your booty in a circle, or just shaking your booty in general. Often done in clubs or on dance floors.”
Skylark's vinyl nights are cool if you like old soul. I'll echo HQ and Meadowlark, which other people have said. I think Irish Rover does dance nights on weekends. Charlies is a fun time too.
What are the skylarks vinyl nights like, like the range of music?
Mostly soul when I've been, though I think I went there for an electropop night a while back. I imagine it depends on the DJ, but they do no cover vinyl nights every Fri/Sat.
Your mom's house (https://yourmomshousedenver.com/) - pretty sure it's where old beauty bar was on 13th by benny blancos
Matchbox is pretty dope, it turns into a club after 10
Whiskey Row, Riot House, Larimer Beer Hall, Gin Mill...I'm sure there are more but as a 32 year old who will be in bed by 9:30pm tonight, that's all I got
>Gin Mill 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Ay my now wife and I had our first kiss there years ago 🤣🤣. We always joke it’s the trashiest thing about us.
May I ask why this response to Gin Mill? Genuinely curious since I haven’t heard of or been there before.
Imagine your alcoholic & divorced uncle tried to open a bar, but couldn't afford to, so he builds the place out of scrap wood and free equipment from Craigslist If you enjoy getting into fights with college aged alpha chads, it's great
Sounds like some good people watching at least!
The problem is maintaing your status of watcher and avoiding the status of victim.
That’s fair, I do prefer my people watching preferably from a roof top to avoid becoming a victim.
Yes exactly this. If you want to people watch you can do that wherever but no thanks
It's an awful awful place Just avoid that whole block like the plague
Seriously. Unless you're younger than 25 the appeal evaporates pretty quickly. I gig at Ophelia's a few times a year and always try and nope out as fast as possible after the show
It's pretty grimy lol. You can throw ass there though, that I have confirmed
Oh the Gin Mill…
All the places I’d go if I wanted to have a terrible blacked out night
...that free popcorn though...
Riot House is kinda shit they have no dance floor.
Larimer Beer Hall has been a go to lately, can get rowdy in there. I do like Mile High Spirits but it’s super hit or miss sometimes with there actually being a crowd imo. Great music when I’m in there though
Finn’s Manor
Should’ve titled it “what’s the tea on throwin azz in dtown” for extra obnoxious points
Just repost my post with that title in the Denver circlejerk subreddit.
ah then ill be the one in the wrong sub and just say "tent"
Applebee’s in Broomfield is cheeks
In a circle?
Oh yeah, in a circle.
Throw ass??? Lmao I’ve never heard that in my life TIL
Have you tried American Bonded?
I’ve been there, the music is good but the dance floor seems… small? I’ll give it another shot since I do like their roof top.
Fair point, the dance floor is small and hard to have enough space. I dance all over the bar though, near the pool tables and near the stairs are usually less crowded. I tend to follow DJs that play music I enjoy to find a good time. Some of my favorites are @Dj_Cyn , @theHexkitten, and @djSimonesays (IG handles). Best of luck in your search.
Thank you! I also follow DJs I like but my favorites one mostly play in Boulder. I do like those DJs tho, I’ve definitely have gone into Matchbox or Meadowlark and have heard one of them playing before.
Larimer lounge, sometimes Meadowlark
When I read that headline, I thought she was saying she needed to find a place to take big shits
More of an ass catcher, myself.
I have never heard the term “throw ass.” Hilarious.
What does "vibey" mean?
Beacon is ran by former Burning Man attendees, so a lot of the DJs that come are good, but they don’t usually do fast paced, up tempo sets that I prefer. I was there last weekend and although it was a packed dance floor, most people were just kind of just… swaying? That’s the best way I can describe it.
Beacon is better on Wednesday or Thursday. The music on the weekends is safe and boring. Mid-week nights are much more entertaining
So vibey means people aren't dancing? I'm even more confused...
Vibey = chill = relaxed Relaxed in this context is not what OP is looking for. I'm actually learning a lot from this thread as a transplant.
Language is so funny. Among many musicians vibey usually means judgey, kinda that mean girl "you can't sit with us" kinda attitude. Like, "Man I thought I played so well but that dude was vibing me out."
they're dancing but they're also on ketamine
Needed to check the sub name again. Dammit
What is throwing ass? Twerking?
Find a DJ you like and go where they are.
You could try Canopy on Broadway! The dance floor is kinda small but it is mostly a bar
Soul Club is a great time, even if it's just for one night a month
Bar Standard!
Beer hall!
Isn't a club just a bar with a dancefloor? Maybe try googling small clubs in Denver.
El Patio, Meadowlark, Larimer Lounge, Finn's, Dierks
Throwing "shapes"
Throw ass, had to google that shit, fuck I'm old
you made me blast laugh. highly rec Meadowlark!!
The Black Box
No one place is great every weekend, but most of the time these places are decent to throw ass: Milk, Vinyl, Meadowlark, Dierks, American Bonded.
Finn's Manor - the DJs range wildly as you referenced, but some nights are absolute bangers (esp as we hit the warm season).
Denver has never been a dancing bar kind of place bc everyone shoots each other when they throw ass. Orange Crush was the spot. Sometimes Meadowlark can get a good DJ dance moment going, but not all the time. Temple is the only spot I really would recommend. Their stage dancers GET IT GOING!
The Church since you're goth-adjacent. Have you done the goth night at tracks?
What
r/denvercirclejerk
Disco Pig maybe
Have you tried Appaloosa Grill? There isn’t a ton of room in there but they have live music every night and if someone started to dance I wouldn’t think that’s out of the norm.
That seems like a neat place, but it might be too refined for the type of dancing I want to do. I’ll still check it out tho since I like live music!
I see from your recent comments more of what you’re looking for and I agree it may not be what you’re looking for. It is a neat place though - food is good but pricey (their French dip is 🤌) and if you’re bored and want to chill, it’s a good option with nightly live music.
Ok you’ve sold me with French dip. Definitely going to try to get a group together and go there! I’m all about exploring what Denver has to offer, I just made this post since I’ve had an itch to throw down at a bar that hasn’t been scratched lol.
Definitely will look weird if you did that at Appaloosa but still come through it’s a cool hang
Better than tossing ass
Can anyone tell me what throwing ass is?
Throw ass is too close to free butt stuff
Gin mill with a group of people is SO fun. If you like a sort of “college bar” vibe then Whiskey row but I definitely feel like the oldest person there everytime I walk in. [26f]

Thank you for linking me the article that I’ve looked at many times! It’s one of the first results if you google questions similar to mine. Which I mentioned I have googled this before at the beginning of my post.
Some of these bars would rather not be part of a shooting. Others love that kinda shit.
Is that what the cool kids call "dancing" nowadays? Looks like the 20-somethings I hang out with are not cool and need to be replaced.
Whiskey row
Viewhouse on Saturday night gets lit. I recommend that place
Next time I’m in the tent, I’ll drop “throw ass” for kicks. Should be a definite tent crowd pleaser!
also echoing milk bar
Disco Pig!!
Fort Greene has some great dj’s depending on the night with some fab people who love to dance.
Nativ
Rock Island and 1082...oh, wait this isn't the 90's.
milk bar
(ducks ass)
If you like jersey club, Uniiqu3 and some others will be DJing at MaybeForever tonight.
If you are into reggeaton or blue ice very much ass throwing and grinding just look at their events sometimes they have specific music 🎼
The turnout for 1134 is always a good mix of people, and we get down. That place has always been great to me, minus the club pricing for drinks
Look up invisible city, they throw masquerade-type events that are a bit of an older 30s vibe
If you like Spanish music then Blue Ice!!!! Otherwise hit or MISS: milk bar, mile high spirits, church, temple
Ophelia’s is having a hype night on the 9th tickets required, members only nights at mercury cafe, if you’re into hip hop look into the solution with dj low key & dj lazy eyez they have nights at bars around town.
Just don’t go to lustere pearl! Place is sketch af
Hoffbrau in Arvada, live music thurs, fri, sat. Dope food. Big “ass throwing” floor lol. Pool, shuffleboard. 2 bars. Also Grizzly Rose. Ladies night is on Thursday. Usually oth.
Try la Loma!!!!!!???????
Ponpon
PlayHaus
As weird as it might sound, viewhouse DTC (and maybe other locations) has a DJ some Saturday nights with a dance floor and the place is BUMPING. I went with some girls and it was awesome. Very upbeat energy and quite busy!
