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!

Shipyard Will Take You Out To The Ball Game!



If there are any misplaced Chicago-ians in need of a Cubs game, you're in luck -- they'll be in Tampa playing the Devil Rays tonight and tomorrow. If that seems like a far drive, grab your seat aboard the Shipyard Bus for one of their infamous baseball excursions. $55 will get you a roundtrip ride, complimentary Shipyard beverages along the way and a ticket to the game. Not a bad deal for baseball fans.

Visit their Myspace page for more info. Tickets are also available through Fiddler's Green, which is where the bus will be departing from both evenings.

Seats are limited, so don't sleep!
