Back At Blaze

This past Tuesday afternoon, on a whim, I decided to make a quick visit to Blaze. This used to be one of my favorite black clubs before the pandemic began. It’s been almost a year and a half since my last visit during the summer of 2020 (right after all of the clubs opened back up in GA) so I was curious to see if anything has changed and if I could see some quality dancers.

The club is located in a somewhat industrial section of Moreland Ave not too far off from I-285. Parking and cover is free during the day until 7:00. I arrived around 12:30 in the afternoon and stayed for about two hours. They have now paved the entire parking lot with asphalt; no more parking in the gravel. Security will check your ID and frisk you thoroughly at the entrance.

There is an upper level which is where you enter the club and there is a lower level right past the main stage. The upper level is more of a party atmosphere and the lower level is typically more of a relaxed atmosphere with a slightly greater chance of better dance mileage. There’s a bar, pool tables and restrooms located on both levels of the club. Additionally, there is a small satellite stage on the lower level where one or two dancers can show their twerking or pole skills. The upper level mostly has booths for sitting, whereas the bottom level predominately has high chairs and tables. There are two VIP rooms on the lower level near the bar area. I usually spend most of my time and money downstairs on the lower level.
