Is it weird for a straight couple to go to a gay bar?

**Update** I'm currently here, I was wrong its not a live show but a dj. Its a great time! Not too packed either so we're not taking up space for other people

**2nd Update** one commenter said I shouldn't get any of the free food, and I did not get any free food. I'm on my 2nd drink and so far no one seems to be bothered with us being here. This is our last drink tho and we'll be going to get food somewhere else

I'm sorry to have offended anyone on here but no one at this small, not super busy bar is offended by my or my fiances presence. A few people have chatted us up a bit, there's just the best songs playing every single time, good drinks (kept it simple with a gin and tonic lol). I will be tipping well before we leave. Thanks for the all the input

I saw a Facebook post that this bar is having live music and free food and was planning on going. I looked up the bar today and realized its a gay bar lol. I am an ally of thr lgbt community but am not myself

Would it be weird for my fiance and I to still go? Its probably a drag show, they do a lot of those it seems

Edit- so everyone is *very* split on this. I found the bars facebook page and it says for the event "Everyone is welcome" so I assume that means literally anyone, regardless of sexuality

I'm probably going to call the bar though and ask just in case. ALSO I just genuinely think seeing a drag show would be fun, like any other live music event at a bar. I'm not going to "gawk" at them, just enjoy it like anyone else

Another edit: My fiance would absolutely be respectful, too. He thinks it sounds like just as much fun as I do. We both have gay siblings so its not like we don't know how to act around gay people lol
