You know it's gonna be a good night when you encounter the Orlando Magic cheerleaders performing at the corner of Church Street & Orange Avenue! |
With official Orlando Magic DJ D-Strong (USA) playing Top 40! |
Part of the Creative City project, there were stages all over downtown with free music, art and dance performances taking place! |
DJ Casella playing Hip Hop outside The Beacham. |
By now you know though that if it's at all possible, I'm going to drop by Independent Bar on a Saturday night! |
The mysterious DJ KC (USA) was in the booth playing early-to-mid 80's New Wave! |
And the dance floor went from this..... |
.....to more like this within a matter of minutes! |
Spotted along the walkway: Lynette & Adam |
Spotted on the dance floor: Trina |
Spotted in the club: Blog-favorite CJ with friends. |
Spotted on the dance floor: Former Pleasure Islanders Jeff & Karen |
Spotted on the dance floor: Jennifer & Craig |
I-Bar is the place to be on Saturday nights! |
First visit to Stigma in several years! |
To visit with DJ Ian McDaniel (USA) playing EDM. |
If it looks like the DJ booth is in a cage, that's because it is! |
It's the only club downtown that has its own tattoo parlour! |
Plus two, count them two, stripper poles. No waiting! |
So come on out and practice your moves! |
Now over to Peek Downtown for this month's edition of Wake N' Break! |
DJ's Rich D & 21 Paths in the booth when I arrived fashionably late. |
Big crowd on hand in this newly-decorated venue. |
Breakbeats had everyone bouncing! |
Spotted in VIP: Anthony & Adriana |
Spotted near the booth: Christina, DJ Matrix (USA), MC Marybeth & Travis |
Spotted on the dance floor: Trish with a couple troublemakers! |
Final stop Venue 578. |
Arriving at 12:40AM, electronic dance music duo Krewella (USA) was already on. |
The dance floor was packed but I was surprised that there weren't more than there was. |
The duo would play all of their numerous hits including "Live For The Night", "Team", "Enjoy The Ride" and current hit "Be There". |
Girl getting into their first big hit, "Alive", the video of which was filmed at Orlando International Airport and Daytona Beach. |
Krewella is made up of sisters Yasmine & Jahan from Northbrook, Illinois. Originally a trio that included a male "DJ Rainman", he was either forced out or he resigned depending on who you believe. |
Spotted in the crowd: DJ Evolv3 (USA) who we know from House of Blues SIN and the Megacon dance parties! |
First time seeing Krewella in person since EDC-Orlando in 2013. |
Laser explosion! Lighting was operated by a Tech stationed on the side of the stage rather than from up in back from the regular lighting tech booth. |
One way to get a better view. |
The show ended really early around 1:15AM so I don't know if Krewella had come on at the traditional 12:30AM or actually earlier. |
I didn't hear any complaining though from the young crowd. |
And a good time was had by all! |
