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!

Contra @ Good Look

Crazy busy all up in here. So busy, in fact, that I am lackadaisically copy/pasting a Myspace bulletin about tonight's happenings. Hey, at least I'm doing something. Should be a good time tonight. Tomorrow is going off too so I'll be back with more... hasta manana!

(I apologize for the explicit use of ALL CAPS that follows):

GOOD LOOK is: A NEW MONTHLY PARTY created to bring together Orlando's art, music, fashion and design communities.

For a once a month network event/night of mayhem, that revolves around DJ culture, Live Music, Live Art, and of course, binge drinking.



Set in Orlando's only Japanese style Boutique Club, Bikkuri Lounge, GOOD LOOK is here to progress the city beautiful and create a platform for the exchange of ideas amongst artists, designers, and DJ's.
Wednesday, March 18!

GOOD LOOK presents:

CONTRA!

The tour DJ for M.I.A.& Santogold!
Along with one of our favorite guys in town,

Haven't been to Bikkuri Lounge yet?

This place is AMAZING. By far one of the best sound and lighting systems in all of Orlando. Lasers and all kinds of crazy shit! LED Light Wall. You will be jamming out to the soundz of MIA and SANTOGOLD's TOUR DJ in a super posh unique nightclub experience.
