\"\"
Saturday night in the city and time for our quarterly visit to CityWalk<\/em> at Universal Orlando Resort<\/em>. Their main dance club is Red Coconut Club<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
But what the….? The music last night was not Top 40 as is typical at RCC<\/em>, it was Broadway Night?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
We didn’t know you could actually dance to Broadway show tunes, but there were some giving it a try.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
In the perch we found DJ Scott Robert (USA).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Quite a few people surrounding the dance floor; very few actually on it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
We first met DJ Scott Robert at Pulse Nightclub<\/em> back in 2011.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
We last saw him when he played a mostly-EDM set at EPCOT: United Kingdom <\/em>back on New Years Eve 2018\/2019. EPCOT<\/em>‘s “around the world” dance parties on NYE are epic and if you’re thinking of going, it’s not too early to get your ticket and park reservation<\/a>. Our recollection is that it reached capacity and sold out this past NYE.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Red Coconut<\/em> was more like the Dead Coconut<\/em> last night.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
If we’re going to visit Universal Studios<\/em>, it’s only fair we visit Disney World<\/em> too. With the Pleasure Island<\/em> club complex now long gone, we dropped by Disney<\/em>‘s only remaining owned and operated dance club, Atlantic Dance Hall<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
We walked into this.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
In the perch we found DJ Michael Wycoff (USA).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
The music a mix of both old and new Top 40 hits.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
We heard some Backstreet Boys (USA), LMFAO (USA), Whitney Houston (USA), Queen (GB) and Taylor Swift (USA), among others. Nearly all songs are accompanied by their music videos. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
We even heard a bit of EDM with songs by Avicii (S) and Lil Jon (USA). And oh wow, a Heavy Bass\/Dubstep remix by The Weeknd (CDN).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Atlantic Dance Hall<\/em> is so cavernous that it can seem empty even if there’s a lot of people. And last night there was definitely a crowd.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Pumping out the hits!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
We first met DJ Michael Wycoff back in early 2018 when he often played at “Late Night Disney Springs<\/em>” events on Pleasure Island<\/em>. That ended during the covid19 closures and Disney <\/em>has sadly never resurrected it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Atlantic Dance Hall <\/em>is one of the few clubs in the Orlando area where many of the patrons wear Mouse <\/em>ears. Well, actually, Atlantic Dance Hall<\/em> is the only <\/strong>club in the Orlando area where many of the patrons wear Mouse <\/em>ears.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Pleasure Island<\/em> was being represented: Dawn from 8TRAX <\/em>& Club Motion<\/em> with Onna from Mannequins<\/em> Dance Palace.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
That look you get from great music.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cupid Shuffle!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Atlantic Dance Hall<\/em> is located at Disney’s Boardwalk Resort<\/em> in Bay Lake, FL. Admission and parking are free. A good time was had by all.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":28810,"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-28799","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\/2024\/07\/DSCN4864-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1920&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7OlZE-7uv","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28799","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=28799"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28799\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28825,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28799\/revisions\/28825"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/28810"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=28799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=28799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.orlandoentertainmentnews.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=28799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
