Going to Orlando for a week in November and have never been able to find good places there every time I visit.
Any recommendations?

TIA

For Techno? Probably not, but Firestone Loft on Thursday is good for house music... Suite B always has some good sounds on Monday, Friday, Saturday.. Not much really happening.. Check out the events thread, some good stuff in November..

While we're here... do you think Orlando could support a techno night a la Snatch @ HPC in Tampa? Considering the rise of techno all over the country, I'm sure Orlando will follow suit... What do you think Ben?

After Deadmau5 had the crowd going to some good techness lest night, i think we are almost at that point.. Alot of my friends are all playing tech-house out now.. I think we would just need an HPC type atmosphere + Three or a similar resident to keep consistent talent coming..

Even a local promoter who would bring some small techno names would be a good start. See if you can team up with some of the Miami people, they've been getting a lot of sick techno down there. It would be awesome to book these guys thurs/fri/sat in mia/orl/tpa.

Damn, not even a small lounge with locals? Wow, we really are spoiled in NYC. I guess I might have to take couple of days to go to either Tampa or Miami.

Um, Deadmau5 is mediocre at best. His music reminds me of 2004 prog. Never understood why there's so much fuss about that guy wearing a stupid mouse helmet.

Wishful thinking that orlando will bring in consistent actual techno. At least with the majority of the promoters pushing commercial house still in control.

Believe me.. I agree.. I just was saying that he was playing some techno which people were dancing too.. Which is a big step forward for Orlando..

You guys are spoiled as fk in NYC..

Don't be so sure. Soon techno will be a fad just like electro and it will be everywhere. The problem is the quality of techno will be so poor you'll wish it never came.

I doubt it man. Most people I run into here that are supposedely "in the scene" don't even know who deadmau5 is. We'll see though. I hope i am dead wrong.

I agree but mostly cuz it's Mickey land and clubs close real early in Orlando.

Did you explain to them that he's the douchebag who wore the mouse head @ Ultra?

I bet you they'll go "ahhhh"
