Club Reports: Orlando Warehouse, M Bar, Barbarella

The Central Florida Fairgrounds west of downtown Orlando is home to two concert venues; the outdoor Orlando Amphitheater and the indoor Central Florida Warehouse. Had previously been to neither of them but that changed last night.
Arrived to find a long but quickly-moving queue headed inside.
And then inside to THIS!
Going back-to-back, House music from DJ Lord Rash (USA) and DJ Caleb Dent (USA).
They’re both downtown DJ’s we know from clubs such as Elixir Bar and Celine.
Even though this was taking place inside a metal warehouse-style building, the sound and lighting were impressive!
And the dance floor was quickly filling-up.
Outside was a small food truck area.
While inside various vendors provided the drinks.
There were some Halloween decorations as well.
Including this enormous bugrilla.
The music had everyone bouncing.
Around 10:30PM, a takeover from local DJ duo Yokai (USA).
They always deliver the goods!
Yokai typically are openers for big name international DJ shows like last night but in September of 2020 they were the headliners at their own show at Celine Nightclub.
Main dance floor was really getting jammed while this VIP area had a bit more space.
The lasers began flying!
But I didn’t want to wait around another 90-minutes for Shiba San (F) nor until 1AM for Gorgon City (GB), so it was time to move-on!
To the hidden M-Bar.
Built in a former car dealership, the place is filled with antique mostly-European vehicles!
Such as this old German Messerschmitt.
The place is upscale so if you come here, don’t dress like a slob.
You know by now if it’s at all possible on a Saturday night, we’re going to stop by Independent Bar Barbarella.
Just as it should be on a Saturday night, DJ Indie John (USA) in the booth!
Playing 80’s New Wave & Alternative.
Wasn’t packed but the dance floor stayed busy.
Because everybody loves the 80’s!
And a good time was had by all.
