| On Pleasure Island, a Continuous Improvement huddle board was spotted in the window at The Edison Orlando. Can't tell if the construction team is using it for their daily team huddles...... |
 |
| or having outlasted its usefulness, it's being used to block the rain! Speak to the red! |
 |
| It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon in Orlando so let's take a stroll together to beautiful Pleasure Island. |
 |
| Crossing the No. 4 Bridge you'll notice spring water to the south. |
 |
| And Village Lake water to the north! |
 |
| First stop on the Island, STK. |
 |
| DJ Ish was on the boards playing Deep House for the Sunday brunch crowd. |
 |
| Across West End Plaza from STK at The Edison Orlando, two theater marquee style awnings would be an indication that there will be at least two entrances here on the Island's upper level. |
 |
| Four braces coming out of the building above the awning are an indication that there will also be a narrow vertical theater-style installed here, ala Mannequins. This is the section with the performance arena behind it. At The Edison Los Angeles it's called the Industrial Cathedral. |
 |
| They continue to make progress on this massive project. |
 |
| And with plastic over all the openings, they can do detail work inside now. |
 |
| Wondering what's going into the vacated Sound Lion spot? Don't get too excited, it's just the Savannah Bee Company. They previously operated from a kiosk at Riverboat Square. |
 |
| Lastly, Wine Bar George is slated to open later this year....but I'm skeptical. |
 |
| This is May after all. Stay tuned! (Editor's Note: This SkyCam photo is two weeks old and there may be progress not shown here.) |
 |
| First Saturday in May, making the rounds beginning at the Sly Fox! |
 |
| Resident DJ Geebo (USA) in the booth playing 90's hits during my visit! |
 |
| Spotted: Marshall on the dance floor. |
 |
| Love this venue's beer can wall! |
 |
| By now you know if it's at all possible, I'm going to visit Independent Bar on a Saturday night! |
 |
| Resident DJ Indie John in the booth delivering the Saturday night format of early to mid 80's New Wave / Old Wave! |
 |
| The dance floor started out a bit on the spartan side. |
 |
| But 15 minutes later it was like this! |
 |
| And in another 15 minutes like this! |
 |
| Spotted in VIP: DJ duo Kimball Collins (USA) & Dave Cannalte (USA). Don't miss their sure to be amazing show "Summer of Love" on the Sunday night of Memorial Day weekend, right here at I-Bar! It's the vibe of AAHZ but in a much more intimate setting! |
 |
| Next stop, Gilt Nightclub. |
 |
| DJ Carlos Mendoza (USA) in the booth playing Trance when I first arrived. (Sorry blurry!) |
 |
| The dance floor was already packed! |
 |
| And then promptly at 12:30AM, DJ Paul Van Dyk (D). |
 |
| And he would begin with Trance and never waver from it! |
 |
| And he had the club in a frenzy right from the start! |
 |
| No song with vocals until about 45 minutes in! |
 |
| And if you don't believe Trance is bringing in the younger generation, look no further! |
 |
| Fun in every corner! |
 |
| Getting into "Time of our Lives"! |
 |
| Spotted: Nerissa, Amanda & Jeff |
 |
| Spotted: DJ Leilani (USA) with Denise. |
 |
| Spotted: Jen with her private security guard. |
 |
| Spotted: Adriana and Ira Mazor of Mazor Promotions. |
 |
| Spotted: Anthony with Adriana |
 |
| Spotted: Mari & Joel |
 |
| Spotted: DJ Carlos Mendoza with friend. |
 |
| You can never go wrong with Go Go girls! |
 |
| Packed to the rafters! |
 |
| That look you get from Trance! |
 |
| While I'm still a novice when it comes to Trance genres, his set was pretty much straight-up or traditional Trance but I think he went 138 on us a couple times! |
 |
| PVD has had a miraculous recovery from injuries he received from a fall off a stage in early 2016 in Utrecht! |
 |
| Gilt showing off some of their recently added lighting effects. |
 |
| Since he began at 12:30AM, kind of expected it to end at 2:30AM. But he kept going and going and going! |
 |
| He encore did not end until a few minutes before 3AM! Amazing set that never wavered from Trance! |
 |
| A good time was had by all! |
 |
| Quick pose for the Blog after the show! Another Trance legend, DJ Ferry Corsten (NL), plays here on May 20th. Tickets here. The Blog will have full coverage. |
