When we came in, we were greeted by Door Hostess Laura all decked-out in a dress and heels!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
When you enter the club, you arrive in this foyer area where there was one DJ booth and it would be called the Geishaz Showcase<\/em> for it’s all female DJ line-up.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Over the years we’ve seen him play numerous times at Orlando’s Ace Cafe<\/em> so it was good to see him closer to his home turf.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
