Another great night at Menages in Nashville but......

Another great night at Menages in Nashville but the upstairs which used to be a good place for a "close encounter"

has turned out to be another social/conversation gathering place in the club.

I wish these people would stay downstairs

Some clubs are getting very crowded. They tend to overflow into the intimate areas.

Perhaps talking to management would help?

Tanman aka Mike and Marie · 03-25-2003, 07:49 PM

Already done but they (mgt) say that some people prefer the place even busier than it is now ( I can't imagine that).

Maybe when they finish the deck more people will go there leaving room for those of us inside who are looking for that "close encounter"

Don't get me wrong its a great place (NASCA recently voted it #5 in the country) but on those busy/crowded nights we would rather stay home............

We were there Saturday night and know exactly what you mean. Upstairs in the main room there was lots of socializing, but no interaction at all. In the hallway by the restrooms there was a very loud group discussing birthdays and trying to get somebody to give up their panties.

My wife and I were in the back room with three other couples where were there to have fun, but the party crowd was really kind of distracting. We still had a fantastic time at Menages, as always, but it would be nicer if the people not interested in participating would stay downstairs.

Oh, and how about the new cutie tending bar upstairs

Tanman aka Mike and Marie · 03-27-2003, 07:57 AM

Yes, she was a cutie

Last night was the first time that we have ever been to this kind of a social club. We have often been to BDSM clubs where things stop before actually "doing the deed". Our first impression was that Ménages was much like any nightclub, people dancing, extremely loud music, and lots of smoke from cigarettes. Because of the loudness of the music, I found it much harder to "mingle". I must just be old!

Once we moved to the upstairs, it was much easier to talk.

The play areas were nicely decorated, though no “group room” and lots of couples trying to get into one small room upstairs in the back. S and I did make it to the back room before it got busy with 2 other couples and had a fun time. Though it's not easy doing everything on couches! It will be nicer when they get the “Luv Shack” done for more space and easier positions for play! I did see alot of what Tanman was talking about with people moving into the play areas and having major conversations. I'd say they need an in-between area, one that does not have the loudness of the main area but that people can sit and talk, mingle, catch-up, whatever!

The staff was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. It would have been nice to have some sort of nibblies available since you do work up an appetite. Overall, we did have a good time and look forward to checking out a few more places.

We are new to the "Lifestyle". The wife and I are planning on going sometime in may. These threads are giving a good heads up on what to expect when we get there. Sounds like its going to be pretty busy. We are going to try and get a weekend pass and hopefully last throughout the weekend. I am sure its going to be an exciting time. I will be able to see my wife in action, and just thinking about it right now is making me nuts!

Gabbycat · 03-23-2006, 07:50 AM

Hi - I heard there are two clubs in the Nashville area. Anyone know the other one? We would like to try Menage, but the reviews here make me wonder if the other club might be the way to go.

Sweet_Candy · 03-23-2006, 10:22 AM

Pretty sad when the vanilla crowd takes over a LS club because it's more open-minded.

We see that here in the Houston area. Where are the swingers?

Tanman aka Mike and Marie · 03-23-2006, 08:50 PM

The other club is The Tenessee Social Club...not nearly as nice as Menages and a different crowd to say the least. We used to go there but not anymore, single guys sure do enjoy it though.

I guess I'm too frugal, but use fees over $50 just seem crazy to me on top of membership. Just last week we went to Drink and had a great time for less than $20 and that included drinks and food.

I guess the use fees do serve the dual purpose of encouraging only middle-upper class members, but we have too many things to spend our resources on to blow that much in one evening unless it's a special occasion.

Tanman aka Mike and Marie · 05-28-2006, 08:47 AM

Hey, its even higher at the clubs in Atlanta

Menages is very nice, it seems to me that alot of people go upstairs just to watch not really participate. It's couples, only upstairs and very classy.

The other club TSC is not nice at all.
