| - This review doesn't matter.
Why doesn't it matter, you ask? Because Krave will be closing down in a few months, and will be replaced by a newer, bigger, shinier version called Krave Massive, located over on Fremont St. See http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2012/jul/25/krave-moving-downtown-expanding-worlds-largest-gay/ for details.
Yes folks -- starting this winter, there will no longer be a gay club on the Strip. (A moment of silence, please.)
In the meantime, enjoy the old Krave while you still can. After all, there's a lot to enjoy.
First of all, the cover is easy to avoid. It's normally $25 on the weekend, but I simply called ahead of time and put myself on the guestlist -- and didn't pay any cover at all.
Let's also mention the drinks. They're big, they're strong, and they're cheap. On the particular Saturday that I went, they were selling ginormous $2 Long Island iced teas for anybody on the guestlist. Two of those and I was thoroughly buzzed for the entire evening. Even with tip, an entire night's worth of cocktails at Krave cost less than a single drink at any of the breeder bars on the Strip.
Krave is also an all-around fantastic place to dance and let loose. The crowd begins to roll in after 11:30pm or so, and the party continues until sunrise. (Oh, how I adore Las Vegas, where nightlife doesn't shut down at 2am.) The dancing is punctuated by acrobatic shows -- by the go-go dancers. (Yes, the go-go dancers are also acrobats. That's my kind of multitasking.)
Another perk to Krave -- plenty of places to sit and people-watch. In most Vegas nightclubs, expect to pay for bottle service if you want a seat. Not here.
Needless to say, Krave is a guaranteed fun night out. Enjoy it while it lasts, folks....
