I don't think I have ever had a bad experience at BS West and if I did I can't remember it ;) The best days are Wednesday and Saturday where the drinks are 2 4 1. And these aren't weak drinks either. There are 5 main places to go in the club. First, the patio by the entrance. This area is usually populated by smokers and others trying to enjoy the cool AZ weather and presumably keep tabs on who is coming in and out of the place. Second, the area around the main downstairs bar. You got some go-go boys and their admirers. A lot of lurkers or non-dancers in this crowd. Third, the outdoor patio. More smokers here and usually this crowd is a bit less attractive. Not sure why that is though. Fourth, the dance floor. Watch out for the creepy old guy who comes here and Amsterdam to dance his ancient heart out. The music is pounding and almost always very good. Fifth, the upstairs. There's a VIP room up here, but is usually never used for that purpose. The cheap stiff drinks, the variety of locations, and the quality men and music make BS West one of the best Phoenix has to offer.
