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!

Case of the Mondays

It looks like the Dead Cruiser will not be performing in Orlando tonight. Boooo!!!

Kavinsky canceled in Orlando

From the Myspace bulletin:

In case you haven't heard the news, Kavinsky is stuck on the US/Mexico border and has missed his connecting flight to Orlando. We are working on rescheduling the performance ... Ticketholders can request a full refund online at www.ticketweb.com or choose to hold on to them for the rescheduled performance.

Judging by the rest of his tour dates, unless they reschedule him in November, he ain't coming back.

Bummer.
