There was a number of vendor booths, patrons on upper floors were tossing beads all while others danced to a New Orleans style Dixie band. |
Once up there, you find a luxuriously-appointed interior space with a color-changing backdrop while awesome House/Dance music is playing quite loudly. |
And then you turn your head in the other direction and find this incredible view of downtown Orlando. Even I-4 looks interesting at this height! |
Big crowd on hand for the opening but I don't recall anyone dancing in there. |
Another new club, The Attic is located upstairs in the spot formerly home to AKA Lounge on Pine Street. |
Got to meet Saturday night DJ Bingoballs (I didn't ask) who was spinning Top 40 and Hip Hop with a little bit of House during my visit. |
I really like this place too. Two side-by-side rectangular rooms with two bars in one room and another bar plus the DJ/dance floor in the other. |
Three VIP areas dominate the area beside the dance floor. |
Spotted: Friday night DJ Erica Jane. No cover charge at The Attic. |
And jammed it was! |
Why carry a purse? Admission free until 11pm. |
And finally, a visit to Independent Bar is a Saturday night must if I'm downtown. |
Weren't we just discussing hard drive generated music? This one is a nice one and a brand new addition to I-Bar as even Saturday night DJ Indie John is now using one. |
Very crowded last night dancing to early to mid 80's New Wave/Old Wave. |
The crowd is a mix of all types of all ages which along with the music is what makes it so fun! |
Spotted: DJ Rob (Independent Bar) down on the floor with regular patron David. Admission is free on Saturday nights until 11pm and then $5. |

Seems to be more & more places to go downtown.
Bob, do you or anyone else know what happened to Pancheros? That place was awesome and always busy but last I stopped by or tried to anyway the interior was demo'd. I havnt found anything online other than the space was sold at auction.
Brad, where was it located? Don't recall the name.
It was right next to the actual Church St station in that courtyard across from the 711
I think I know where you're talking about and it looked like several things closed in there. Touch is in that same courtyard. The entire area needs more foot traffic to generate business. They get it on game nights but it needs to be more sustained.
Brad, that company went out of business.
