disney should try to make some money on the night and open some street bars
This Just goes to show you how much the people liked and still want the clubs reopen, as well as night life to return.
P.S. So all you faithful PI people keep hanging in there.
the party is at 9:30! in front of Mannequins! not 8:30 from i what on facebook
What's the facebook group? I'll join...
The Facebook page for the PI Reunion is at:

I'll double-check on those times.
would this reunion be recommended for people who enjoyed 8trax over mannequins?
i am assuming there would be no 80's music correct?
My understanding is that the DJ is going to try to run sets of music from each of the closed clubs. That would include 8TRAX songs.
Also, ADH DJ's take requests which they are very good at meeting, so you can always request certain songs if they have them.
I can't imagine ADH going all techno/trance/dance for a night, I'd be willing to bet there'll be something for everyone.
On another Disney note, the DJ at the Last Tour to Endor played Ferry Corsten's Rock Your Body Rock. I had a Mannequin's flashback... kept waiting for the fog cannons but they never came. :)
hi - i noticed this is the 2nd reunion - how was the attendance the 1st reunion. i guess it must have been last year. was it at the same place? was it crowded?
There have actually been two prior Reunions that I'm aware of; one for cast members and one for clubbers.
On 9/27/09, the actual anniversary of PI's closure, many PI cast members gathered at Raglan Road to visit with each other. SAVE PI BLOG was there and you can see photos from that event if you click on 2009, then September and then scroll to that date.
Earlier this year, on 2/13/10, there was a clubbers reunion at Atlantic Dance with a good turnout of people from Mannequins, Motion & 8TRAX. SAVE PI BLOG was there of course and photos are in the 2/14/10 article.
thanks for the comments. i miss pi and hopefully can make it the 24th. i'm familiar with that area - where is the free parking? at the beach club parking lot?
if your familiar with PI you know where the free parking is!
anywhere at downtown disney DUH!!!!
I think Anon 10:47 was referring to parking for Atlantic Dance (ADH).
Park at BoardWalk; parking there is free. You'll enter at the main BW entrance, show your ID to the guard.
thanks joe - you were smart enough to realize what i was asking.
but he said he was "familiar" with the area and didn't know where the free parking was.....
To avoid having to go through the guard at the Boardwalk entrance, there is ample parking behind the HESS gas station. With the angles involved, it's a minimally farther walk but no line having to go through security. You do have to cross the road though at the crosswalk.
Based on the number of people on the Facebook page that state they are attending, there could be a really LARGE crowd for this!
Dear Mr Staggs,
I hope hope you're aware of the big turnout at the Atlantic Dance Hall the 24th.
to support bringing back PI with light music partying and maybe lovely Jessica Rabbit in front welcoming allthe party people back.
P.S.
Hope you guys start smelling the coffee.
I meant to say "lights and music' and I meant also said "I Hope" about the turnout.
Just correcting the typo.
I don't think this is a bring back PI! this is a PI reunion of the closing of PI! you know 2 years!
disney is VERY aware of an expected large turnout...security schedules are being adjusted to hopefully make things smoother...extra barstaff is being moved to dancehall
I've never understood why they have that security guard there. If Osama Bin Laden himself drove up, they'd let him in.......as long as he had his ID!
KingBob: I worked at the Bwalk for many years and I always wondered the same thing :)
I've been there several times and been turned away over to the overflow lot behind the Hess station. My guess is that the guard is more of a parking patroller than actual security.
