The building says Badminton <\/em>on the outside but on Saturday nights there’s a club inside!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We arrived at Barbarella 2.0<\/em> and found DJ Rob Bates (USA) in the booth last night.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Spotted here later, the DJ with friend Adrianne.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Dance floor was crowded for 80’s New Wave and Alternative hits!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
If you’re looking for an old-style warehouse party with an underground vibe, Barbarella <\/em>is the place!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The building says Sushi <\/em>on the outside, but last night there was “Lost In Trancelation<\/em>” inside!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
We arrived at Bikkuri Lounge <\/em>and found DJ U4euh (USA) in the booth last night.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Home to Bikkuri<\/em>‘s amazing light walls, this was our first visit back in the post-covid19 closure era.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Dance floor was crowded for Uplifting Trance.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
DJ Suzy Solar (USA) took over shortly after our arrival.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Continuing with a lot of vocal Trance during our visit! Suzy had played on the stereoBLOOM<\/em> stage last year at Electric Daisy Carnival – Orlando<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
She had the club bouncing!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Spotted on the dance floor and leading the festivities: World Famous Shawn Fenn.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Spotted by the booth: Suzy Solar’s Manager and sometimes DJ Lil’ B (USA).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It’s great to have “Lost In Trancelation<\/em>” back in session again where there are always world-class DJ’s playing in this intimate setting! Look who is playing at the next episode on Friday, November 4th: DJ Sean Tyas (USA\/CH). Put that on your calendar as tickets will be going on sale soon!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Last night was opening night last night for new club Fixtion <\/em>in downtown. It takes over the spot vacated by Sideshow<\/em>. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Of course we had to be there and we arrived to this! A large bar occupies the center, pretty much located where it was for Sideshow<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The DJ is located aft where there is a dance floor in front of it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Here we found DJ Pranksta (USA) playing House and EDM.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Although no one was dancing during our visit, the place was jammed.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
This dominates the north wall.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
While the south wall is a bit more sedate. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Fixtion <\/em>is just one part of a complete makeover coming to downtown. It is owned and programmed by Gilt Concert Venue<\/em> which itself is allegedly going to close in about a year. They purchased the entire south side of Wall St. Plaza <\/em>(except for The Other Irish Bar<\/em>) and will be revamping things over the coming months. Meanwhile, the Tier\/Celine<\/em> group has supposedly purchased venues The Lodge, The Woods, Embassy<\/em> & Lizzy<\/em>‘s and will be upscaling those spots. We’ve already seen the openings of Bellhop <\/em>and Parlay <\/em>as part of the much-needed upscale makeover of downtown.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Still time to check out The Robinson<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Located on the second floor overlooking Pine Street, you climb the stairs and arrive to their large bar in the first room.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The second room is mostly a seating area but they’ve added a pool table since our last visit.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
But at The Robinson<\/em> it’s all about the third room…..the Disco Room<\/em>!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
In here we found Saturday night resident DJ Brio (USA) in the booth.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The Saturday night format is mostly 70’s Disco with some early 80’s Funk.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The dance floor isn’t that large to begin with but it was packed!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
You know the place is legit because there isn’t just one but six<\/span> shiny Disco balls!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Music like “We Are Family”, “Ring My Bell” and “YMCA” kept the dance floor jammed! It is SO<\/strong> much fun!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Everywhere we went last night, a good time was had by all.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":18111,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1899],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18101","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-club-reports"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/DSCN6960-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1920&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7OlZE-4HX","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18101","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=18101"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18101\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18143,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18101\/revisions\/18143"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/18111"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=18101"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=18101"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=18101"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
