And Now The Latest News

A DJ friend of mine reports that Disney held DJ auditions at Altantic Dance about a week ago. Apparently there is an upcoming need for DJ's out at Disney World. Hmmm. Now why would there be a sudden need for disc jockeys? One might speculate that perhaps Pleasure Island could be reopening soon?

And rumors do continue in that regard, as reported earlier in the Blog. Rumor has it that some clubs might reopen in time for Spring Break weeks, which usually begin the second week in March. Of course we had the rumors about clubs reopening over the Christmas/New Year's holidays too and nothing happened. And they wouldn't let me rent out Mannequins or Motion.

Speaking of Atlantic Dance, I was out at AD this past Wednesday evening because rumor had it that many of the past winners of American Idol might be out there that night. All 7 prior winners were in town to attend the grand opening of the new American Idol Experience attraction out at Disney Hollywood Studios. But none of them came to AD that night! Kelly Clarkson, where were you? :-(

Looks like the new food court at CityWalk is moving along nicely. It's going to be upstairs right near the CityWalk escalators and will include the Burger King Whopper Bar, Panda Express and Moe's. I hope they stay open after the clubs close!

CityWalk clubs were packed last night (Saturday) and it was difficult to move in any of them! I also hear that DJ Doc (from 8TRAX) had the Groove pretty full this past Thursday night for the new 80's Night. You'll recall the first Thursday had heavy rains and the second Thursday had extremely cold temps in town. But the weather was perfect this past Thursday and there was a full club. This is important because Thursday has been a dud in recent years and Doc is bringing people in. He also had the dance floor packed last night at RCC after the band finished.
