Club Reports: Barbarella 3.0, Palm Tree Club, Iron Cow

Located inside The Axe Trap on Lee Road on Saturday nights, Barbarella 3.0.

Arriving shortly after their 9:30PM opening time, we walked into this.

And just as it should be on Saturday nights, DJ Indie John (USA) in the booth delivering the good stuff.

The Saturday night music format is 80's New Wave and Alternative.

Most of the music accompanied by their original music videos.

The Axe Trap has a full liquor bar while Barbarella 2.0, which was located in an industrial park off John Young Parkway, only sold low-octane alcoholic drinks.

Spotted nearby: DJ Smilin' Dan (USA). He tells OEN that for the next few months every Friday night at Barbarella will be "Mac & Cheeze" night where nearly every genre of music can get played. Saturday's will be the traditional New Wave night with 1x per month devoted to the darker, gothier "Memento Mori". The next "MM" will be on Saturday, March 22nd ft. DJ Lavidicus (USA).

The Axe Trap building is on sacred grounds where the famed Booby Trap strip club once stood. This stripper pole in the corner pays homage to it and always draws a crowd.

A good time was had by all.

Our next stop was Palm Tree Club located upstairs at The Pointe (formerly Pointe Orlando).

We walked into this.

Resident DJ Sheen Boogie (USA) was playing when we first arrived.

The club is owned by DJ Kygo (N) and his logo has been placed onto the front of the DJ booth.

The music is EDM.

And the dance floor was packed!

And then at midnight, there he was, the headliner.....

DJ Regard (RKS)

He would continue with an EDM set.

Including his biggest hit "Ride It". PARENTAL ADVISORY

DJ Regard is based in Kosovo.

We visited the Kosovo capital of Pristina a few years ago where the most-visited tourist site is this statute of President Bill Clinton who played a large part in Kosovan independence. The Clinton statue was designed with abnormally large hands. No doubt if a Trump statue is ever erected it would be with abnormally small hands.

Upcoming events at Palm Tree Club include DJ Poolside (USA) on March 21st and DJ Sigala (GB) on April 25th. A good time was had by all.

The next and final stop was Iron Cow.

We walked into this.

The headliner was already on: DJ Todd "The God" Edwards (USA).

The dance floor was pretty jammed.

DJ had everyone bouncing.

The music a mix of Garage House and UK Garage.

Todd Edwards is based in Los Angeles.

He's known for being very engaged with his crowds and indeed he was.

Playing his remix of Donna Summer (USA) hit "I Feel Love" showcases his distinctive sound.

Upcoming events at Iron Cow include DJ Todd Terry (USA) next Friday, March 14th, DJ Mark Farina (USA) on April 5th and DJ Deekline (GB) on April 12th. Everywhere we went last night, a good time was had by all.
