Club Reports: Big Easy, Peek Downtown, TSAR, Treehouse, Sandwich Bar

Friday night of a long holiday weekend in progress and making my first stop at new venue Big Easy.
Former Pleasure Island DJ Dick Tracey in the booth at the rear of the club playing Rock hits.
Located on Central in the Arcade Building, the Cajun restaurant has this long bar with a dance floor in front of the booth.  It has potential.
Located around the corner in suite B of the same building, Peek Downtown is Orlando's home for Breaks.
Arrived around 11PM to find DJ Rich Doss in the booth.
Just never got very crowded during my visit.
Sporting a great stache, Miami's DJ Bebe taking over around 12:30AM.
Lots of great music to dance to!
Just not a lot of dancers doing it!
Second visit ever to TSAR, the new Russian-themed ultralounge located over in the Lake Eola district where speakeasy Don't Tell Anyone used to be.
DJ Andy Hughes (USA) in the booth playing light House music!
Another venue with just a handful of people on hand.
Spotted on the dance floor: DJ J-Dub & Fernando.
Spotted with Hughes in the booth, DJ's Lee Coombs, Jimmy Joslin & Def Jeff .
Treehouse is the semi-secret venue located upstairs along Magnolia.
You never know what kind of music you're going to get here but last night it was a bouncy 90's track!  No DJ, it's all pre-recorded.
Nice crowd on hand for craft cocktails and shots!
Of course the main attraction at Treehouse is grabbing a drink and chilling picnic-style down on the grass floor!
Spotted on the dance floor: Trini, Blog favorite CJ & Leah.
Saved the best for last.....Sandwich Bar!
For the final Orlando show this year from DJ Kimball Collins (T)!
Small club was packed!
Fog-machine made it difficult to get pics in here!
House music all night long!
Kimball will soon be heading back to his residencies in Bangkok.
Spotted: DJ's Funkbaby & Leilani
Spotted: Kimball's #1 fan Donna with Christa
Spotted: Dana with Christa
Spotted: Aline & Kenneth with Christa
Spotted: DJ Dave Cannalte with Christa
Spotted: LadyV, Jimmy Joslin, Andy Hughes & world famous Shawn Fenn.  Wait, where's Christa?
Spotted cooling down outside: Sydney & Carey
Not untypical at Sandwich Bar, the A/C system couldn't keep up with the crowd and it got hot and steamy in there!
House, Deep House, Progressive House!  It never stopped!
The clock passed 2:30AM and the music kept flowing!  The clock passed 3:30AM and the music kept flowing!  Kimball not leaving town without leaving another great impression!
A good time was had by all!
