Blue Max

(downstairs at Faces in East St. Louis) followed by Clementines in St. Louis in 1980 and the Outpost, in St. Louis (later the upstairs bar was called the St. Louis Eagle) in 1993 (The Outpost/Eagle closed in December 1999 but reopened six months later under new management as the Eagle in Exile.) JJ's Clubhouse, located in the Grove Neighborhood of Saint Louis, has been our home bar since 2000. In the early years, Blue Max joined other clubs in holding joint runs. Those clubs included Gateway M.C., Spirits of St. Louis, and Bacchus. Gateway is the only other surviving leather club in St. In mid-1982, each club began holding individual runs. In 1992, Blue Max became the first St. Louis leather club to admit women. Blue Max has always been committed to charitable causes. The club holds annual holiday food drives, and holds numerous fundraisers that assist families affected by HIV/AIDS. Blue Max sponsors club nights and events monthly and actively works with other St. Louis LGBT organizations, bars, and venues to promote the leather community.
