Last night OEN <\/em>did something we haven’t done in awhile; club hopping! We began at Rayn Pool Bar & Cafe<\/em> in Altamonte Springs.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Friday night is Latin Night at Rayn <\/em>and we found DJ Xavier Maxwell (USA) in the booth playing…..Latin!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Rayn <\/em>is located in Opal Hotel & Suites<\/em>, the place most people remember as the former Holiday Inn – Altamonte Springs<\/em>. Rayn <\/em>is also the venue most people remember as the former Why Not Lounge<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Check out Rayn <\/em>on Thursdays for their Why Not Lounge Night<\/em> ft. Retro dance music and on Saturdays for their House Party<\/em> night. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Next stop was downtown for Skytop Lounge<\/em> atop Amway Center<\/em>. This is the place formerly known as 180 Grey Goose Lounge <\/em>and then 180 Skytop Lounge<\/em>. Now it’s just Skytop Lounge<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
In this open air perch overlooking downtown, we found DJ 818 (USA) in the booth.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
A Country music concert had just ended inside Amway <\/em>so the DJ was playing that too, at least initially. Not sure which artist played at the concert since I don’t follow Country music; I think maybe Conway Twitty (USA) or something like that.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
But he quickly shifted over to Classic Hip Hop for which we were grateful. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Just a small contingent dancing at this early hour.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Skytop Lounge<\/em> competes with A.C. Skybar<\/em> located over there on the 17th floor of the Truist Bank<\/em> building where you see those outdoor columns. Skybar <\/em>has the height advantage but Skytop <\/em>has the view advantage.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
From up here, even I-4 is romantic. Yes, that’s the former SunTrust <\/em>tower in the middle sporting Ukraine colors!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Doc Martens<\/em> for the win!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
In conjunction with the Country music concert at Amway<\/em>, Church Street was blocked off for a street dance outside Harry Buffalo<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Big stage set up at the western end of the street. A Country band had played earlier but now the DJ had taken over.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
DJ Mynd (USA) on stage taking the crowd into the wee hours.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The music Top 40 hits!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Even close to 1AM there was quite the crowd still here.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The crowd stretched back halfway to the SunRail <\/em>tracks.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Lots of cowboy boots out there. Soon it was time to be moving on!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
It’s been awhile since we dropped in on Aero Bar<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Friday night resident DJ Cliff T (USA) was in the booth.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
House music on Friday & Saturday nights at Aero<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Dance floor was packed!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The peeps want House music!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The lasers were flying!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Cliff T had everyone bouncing!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Time for one more stop! The Patio<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The Patio<\/em> is directly below Aero <\/em>so when you travel between the two, you can peek inside to see what is happening on the dance floor. It was packed too!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Resident DJ Parry (USA) was in the booth here.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The music mostly Top 40 hits old and new.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Parry had the dance floor jamming!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
It was next to impassable, lol.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
