Dear recent Orlando transplant:

Ok, so you just moved to Orlando from New York / Philly / Chicago / San Francisco / et al. You feel lost, uprooted, misplaced -- you're starting to think Orlando might suck. Eager to find some nightlife in this town, you go to Lattitudes on Church Street, Slingapour's on Wall Street and that mega-club on Orange Avenue owned by one of those Backstreet Boys (Orlando's finest celebrities). Maybe you even think International Drive, Citywalk or Downtown Disney is where everyone hangs out in this town. Now you really think Orlando sucks.

Well, you're wrong. There is more to this city than theme park "nightlife" and crappy clubs with guys wearing shiny shirts, but you have to know where to look. Instead of complaining about how lame Orlando is compared to your city of origin, why not get out there and support your new scene -- it's a lot better than you think! After all, you moved here for a reason, right? (I'm guessing to escape the cold weather.) So you can do one of two things: either 1) move back to the city you think is sooooo much more awesome or 2) quit bitchin', check the events below and DON'T SLEEP on the shit that is happening!

Don't judge the party by its horrible flyer

The party at Crooked Bayou on Saturday was totally dope. Here's what I remember: Stoli, tater tots, Irish car bombs, break dancers ruining the dance floor, Jaeger, playing awesome late 80's-early 90's hip hop from 2 am 'til close, Irish car bombs, Armand Van Helden's remix of Hustler by SMD, K.I.M. is totally sick, One Thing Leads to Another by The Fixx could quite possibly be the best song ever made, and Jaeger.

Tonight the amateur Irish antics will continue to ensue (we <3 green beads!) and I would suggest going to The Peacock Room to see DJ Nigel and Think Different.



Note: this is the worst flyer ever -- sorry.

Here's the Armand remix of Hustler to make up for it.
