Boire

Rave with two current locations, Ames and Saint Louis.

The Ames location in an industrial section of old Des Moines, has a full bar, and a partial kitchen. Rave is open 7 nights a week, and staffed by a mix of various supernaturals. Owned by | Lee |, it allows for both mortal, immortal, and the in-between patrons to party, dance, and exist in relative peace. Rumor has it it has ties to old organized crime, and entities most area's do not acknowledge. What is known, is that the lines are long, and it is considered one of the premier party locations amongst the "In Crowd". Owner Lee | started there as a bouncer, and worked her way up to owner, expanding the original club, while keeping on all the original staffing and management. She is known to appear now and then, to take a shift as a bouncer, or even behind the bar, as a bartender.

The Saint Louis location is at 517 Withers Avenue, in an old rundown industrial section near both tracks and close to the river. The building was purchase, and signs have been placed outside, along with signs of security and some repairs, but based on the number of teams and construction trucks, the majority of the work is going on inside. Plans with the city, if checked, will see that permits and licenses processes have been started, or already filed, for the retrofit, along with an occupancy of 250, full kitchen, and an extensive bar. Plans show a set up of a central stage, mini stages with 'cages and poles' scattered in various locations, a wrap around bar, and multiple second story rooms with one sided glass to be able to view the dance floor. Above the middle of the bar would be the DJ booth, hanging up for all to see. There are no windows in the location, but plans show later intent to create a second area on the roof for similar use, with the reinforcements being built in now as part of the retrofit.
