You know by now that if it's at all possible on a Saturday night, I'm going to begin my night at Independent Bar! |
Just as it should be on a Saturday night, DJ Indie John (USA) leading the festivities! |
The dance floor went from this..... |
to this within a matter of moments! |
Spotted in the booth: Indie John joined by DJ Parry (USA), DJ Kimball Collins (USA) and DJ Icey (USA). |
Spotted in VIP: Doctor John and Blog-favorite CJ. |
And OMG, spotted on the dance floor, Cera (D). |
The Saturday night format at I-Bar is 80's New Wave and it's thee place to be downtown! |
DJ Dan-e Crane (USA) in the booth at this early hour. |
And the dance floor was like.....full. |
He had everyone bouncing! |
Playing Daft Punk (F) hit "One More Time" to my satisfaction! |
Drats, foiled again! There really is always a party at The Patio! |
OK, crossing over Washington Street to Elixir Bar. |
In time to see DJ Matt Enos (USA) close-out a Techno set. |
Dance floor not full but not empty either. |
And then at 12:15AM, the headliner took over. The veteran DJ Carl Craig (USA). |
Everyone came out of the woodwork and the dance floor got crowded! |
Going all Hard Detroit Techno on us early on! |
First met Carl Craig when he and DJ Al Ester (USA) performed in 5F° outdoors at Igloofest in Montreal and they offered me shots from their liquor stash! |
Based in Detroit, Carl Craig is considered one of the fathers of Detroit Techno music. |
Beautiful night on the Elixir patio! |
If you're driving down East Colonial Drive you need to look for this sign. Because when you see "sticky rice" in the front of this building, you'll find Bikkuri Lounge in the back of this building! |
Damn! I arrived into this! |
DJ Craig Connelly (GB) delivering the Trance! |
That look you see when great uplifting Trance is being played! |
The special installment of "Lost In Trancelation" was packed! |
Spotted on the dance floor: Jeff, Amanda, Christina, Joe & Nerissa. |
Spotted near the front: DJ Robb Blak (USA) with Harley |
Spotted by the door: DJ Rysto (USA) and DJ Suzy Solar (USA), both whom had played earlier, with Trance Vocalist Sally Oh (USA). |
Spotted on the dance floor: Suzy Solar with DJ Brian Benning (USA). |
Spotted on the balcony: Christina and Sage |
You could feel the euphoria in the room! |
Two nights in a row for big-name Trance in Orlando. Such a great set! |
Don't miss the next edition of "Lost In Trancelation" as DJ Sean Tyas (CH) returns to the booth right here at Bikkuri on Friday, June 7th. |
A good time was had by all. |
