Concert Report: DJ Benny Benassi (Celine)

I don't know how they keep doing it but two to four times per week Celine is the place for international touring DJ's to play Orlando! EDITORS NOTE: THIS CONCERT TOOK PLACE THURSDAY NIGHT BUT WAS NOT RECEIVED IN TIME FOR PUBLICATION ON FRIDAY.
First to the rooftop where I did not recognize this guy but he was playing a great House set!
And at this early hour the place was already jumping.
But a constant sprinkle caused many to escape and head inside to the main room downstairs.
DJ Too Heavy Crew (USA) on stage down here!
Normally a DJ duo, this is the second time I've seen "them" as a single "him".
Because of the rain upstairs, it didn't take long for the downstairs to become crowded.
Great set of music!
First time seeing local DJ duo Yokai (USA). Their appearance at midnight meant that Benny wasn't coming on at 12:30AM as I had hoped.
But they played a great House / Tech House set that built momentum as it went on.
And the crowd was getting euphoric!
If not downright giddy, lol!
And then as 1AM arrived, there he was!
DJ Benny Benassi (I)
Only the third time getting to see him, first time at EDC-Orlando in 2011 and then in 2013 at UCF Arena.
So it had been 5 years!
"Benny! Benny! Benny!"
Third song in and already blowing the crowd away with Fisher (AUS) hit "Losing It". The club's speakers and the song's drop made your body literally vibrate inside!
Great sound system; great lighting effects!
Packed to the rafters!
But with me having to work on Friday, I sadly could not stay for the full show.
But it was crazy in there and a good time was had by all!
