User review by bruisejuice. If you've got a thing for dancing then Faces is the place for you. If your thing is singing check it out on Monday, Wednesday or Thursday for karaoke. Basically, Faces offers a safe, fun, lively place to be yourself (GLBT) with reasonably priced drinks and a bunch of great bartenders (say hey to Marge in the Video Bar!). A special note to straight folks: if you're asked to dance or offered a drink by a person of your same sex, it doesn't mean we think you're gay just that we *hope* you are. Be flattered, not offended. Take a chance on Faces, you'll have a great time.
Multiroom, multimedia gay dance club also attracts his-and-her heteros..
The Scene
The sheer vastness of this club can be overwhelming at first, but the layout is straightforward, once committed to memory. Just inside to the right is the fireside lounge and front patio with its own bar, mainly for relaxing and stocking up on free popcorn. Further in is the main dance floor, where everyone from country line dancers to shirtless techno aficionados revel in the sensory experience of the thumping sound system and special effects. A smaller video bar across the hall is often more about posing than grooving, despite inspiration from a wall of 16 TV screens, but can be fun on karaoke and drag revue nights. Outside, the homey vibe on the heated enclosed patio encourages mingling and flirting.
The Draw
Faces has been considered one of the hottest River City gay bars since it opened in 1985, but it also attracts a big straight crowd, particularly on the weekends.
It's a GAY club.. Indoor, enclosed smoking permitted, and the smoke moves throughout the entire club. Not bad for a GAY bar.
Tacky-Sad.
I have to say that this place does not have DJ's--they merely spin really bad remixes of radio edits, in other words really loud music you hear on the radio--The crowd is a tacky dressed crowd. It is crowded, but it seems it's the only and best place to go in Sacramento?--Really REALLY Sad if it's true. It must be a factor of what the crowd likes, tacky people beg for tacky times. My suggestion--get some DJ's and give them a huge budget to buy some real music.
As for the outdated crowd, well we'll have to work on them....Shorts and Sandals to a club is horrible!!
Sad Excuse For A Club. Well I dont know if I would call it a club....yes there are dance floors but they are small and crowded....decent bar but kindof dirty could use a janator or 2 or 3. I liked the Depot Much more
Lame...Second rate. This Club could use some help While they have good ideas and theme's they dont put much time into them..no attention to detail......The DJ's play cd's and what they call a remodel is some new paint and a plant here and there........The staff could use some customer service training...and a smile wouldn't hurt
