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!

Last Minute Addition - Omega Watts at Cleo's Tonight


Good news for the broken beat/ nu jazz/ neo soul/ hip hop lovers in Orlando. According to a Myspace bulletin posted by DJ Y-Not, one of Ubiquity's golden boys, Ohmega Watts, will be playing for FREE at Cleo's tonight.

This event appears to be confirmed on Mr. Watts' Myspace page as a DJ set. And even better news is that he will be playing again this Friday with Stereo 77 at the Eola Wine Bar in Winter Park.

Ummm... why weren't these gigs promoted at all??? Thank goodness for Myspace, I guess.
