One of the things that irked me the most was that they stated this "dress to impress dress code policy" and it was randomly enforced based on how you looked (imho) rather than an actual dress code as I saw one patron with sandals, shorts and an arm-pit stained t-shirt there and wondered really... that is dress to impress? Like I said I never went back and apparently neither did a lot of people.<br /><br />The result RBARR closed on August 4th. <br /><br />But with a great interior, outdoor bar, improved sound system and excellent talent, one can not count out the former Southern Nights location and with skipping a beat the GRAND OPENING of the new SOUTHERN NIGHTS was announced on August 9th.<br /><br />And the GRAND OPENING is Friday August 15th!<br />I am excited and have some reservations. Is this just RBARR with Re-branded or is it a new beginning.<br />Bobby Mils will be bartending on Opening Night so that is a positive and maybe it means things will run better and Southern Nights will return with a vengeance and be successful, but only time will tell.<br /><br />What we can say is "Welcome Back Southern Nights"<br />Here are the opening night details.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TnNmPTLgsEY/U-uYoHICcCI/AAAAAAAAAHk/OIl2s1C2f9U/s1600/SouthernNights-GO.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TnNmPTLgsEY/U-uYoHICcCI/AAAAAAAAAHk/OIl2s1C2f9U/s1600/SouthernNights-GO.jpg" height="320" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><b>Rus J<br /><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/">VisitGayOrlando.com</a></b>Gday Boihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264437455542993518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753649934972196354.post-4117197207337648682014-06-03T12:10:00.001-07:002014-06-03T12:10:07.411-07:005 Must Attend Orlando Gay Days EventsIf you add up all the pool parties, special events, concerts, drag shows, plays and visiting the theme parks there are well over 50 different events going on this weekend for Orlando's Gay Days.<br /><br />While there is something for everyone and much of it depends on your own taste, we put together a list of what we think are the Top 5 Must Attend Gay Days Events. <br /><br />This list is not in any specific order.<br /><br /><div><b>1. PI @ PHouse</b> <br />Pleasure Island (PI) use to be the kick off for Gay Days and it was a homecoming type of event for former Disney employees who had moved on and a gathering place for everyone to kick off the Gay Days weekend. Mannequins was so popular that the line to get in often started forming around 3-4 in the afternoon and the dorrs didn't open until 9 pm! After PI closed, Parliament House created the PI @ PHouse event and it has become the Gay Days Kick Off for locals and visitors ever since.<br /><br /><b>2. <a href="http://www.onemagicalweekend.com/" target="_blank">RipTide @ Typhoon Lagoon</a></b><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.onemagicalweekend.com/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-biAOzOQYClg/U44bWwxZ98I/AAAAAAAAAHE/IadqrqrH45k/s1600/riptide-14.jpg" /></a></div>Water Park, Wave Pool, Dance Music and 5,000 guys in swimsuits. What's not to love - plus you can choose whether you want to get wet, enjoy the wave, people watch or just dance the night away. It is my favorite event of the weekend! This is a <a href="http://www.onemagicalweekend.com/" target="_blank">One Magical Weekend Event - Get Details Here</a>.<br /><br /><b>3. <a href="http://onemightyweekend.com/" target="_blank">Magical Journeys - After Hours @ Arabian Nights</a></b><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://onemightyweekend.com/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TAW4WusOm4A/U44bW1XVIYI/AAAAAAAAAHI/OTF4dGvdi2g/s1600/Mj180x100.jpg" /></a></div>The party doesn't end at midnight, in fact at the arena sized venue Magical Journeys is just getting started as other events are winding down. Magical Journeys is a high energy dance event that runs Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. It starts around midnight, picks up steam and then runs until five, six or seven in the morning. One Might Weekend has hosted events here for many years, but this is most likely the last time at this location since Arabian Nights dinner show recently closed. Get additional details on this <a href="http://onemightyweekend.com/" target="_blank">One Mighty Weekend</a> Event.<br /><br /><b>4. Attend a Pool Party</b><br />Sometimes the best way to meet people and get to know theme is at a pool party and you have lots to choose from including Gay Days Men's Pool Parties, Bear's Pool Parties, <a href="http://onemightyweekend.com/" target="_blank">One Mighty Weekend - Reunion Pool Parties</a> and Tidal Wave Weekend Pool Parties. All allow you to get a tan, cool off in the pool, socialize on a personal level and enjoy a variety of dance music from top djs. See the complete <a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/gay-days/mens_pool_parties.php" target="_blank">Pool Party Schedule</a>.<br /><br /><b>5. Visit the Magic Kingdom on Saturday</b><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ShJmVfxGfZU/U44cIdeMyvI/AAAAAAAAAHU/JAvTjHTu9X4/s1600/castle-gd-red.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ShJmVfxGfZU/U44cIdeMyvI/AAAAAAAAAHU/JAvTjHTu9X4/s1600/castle-gd-red.jpg" height="180" width="240" /></a></div>If you've never been to the Magic Kingdom on the first Saturday of June, then you are missing something special. As a sea of men, women and families wearing red to show support of each other enjoy the park. If you came from a small town and always felt like an outsider like myself, then the moment you see everyone wearing red and get a sense that we are all supporting each other can be a little emotional for some. I have to admit, for me it was something I never will forget. In addition to seeing everyone in red you get to enjoy the Magic Kingdom which is a blast. I wouldn't miss it!<br /><br />I hope you have your hotel booked, your sunscreen & swimsuit packed and are ready for a wonderful Gay Days weekend. We look forward to seeing & meeting you in Orlando!<br /><br />To see all the activities for Orlando's Gay Weekend check out the <a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/gay-days/mens_pool_parties.php" target="_blank">Pool Parties</a>, <a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/gay-days/mens_parties.php" target="_blank">Dance Parties</a> and <a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/gay-days/concerts.php" target="_blank">Performers</a> and more.<br /><br /><b>Russ J<br /><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/">VisitGayOrlando.com</a></b></div>Gday Boihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264437455542993518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753649934972196354.post-85425323902046124462014-05-16T15:12:00.000-07:002014-05-16T15:12:08.590-07:00RBARR - Orlando New Gay Nightclub Grand Opening Review<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/bars/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Q8BBsuJFclg/U3aLmruJ74I/AAAAAAAAAGw/JqLi980BdIE/s1600/rbarr-logo.jpg" /></a></div><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">RBARR Discotek & Cocktail Boutique opened last night in the former Revolution location and while there were some bumps in the road, the crowd and energy lasted all night. <br /><br />What I enjoyed about RBARR was the streamlined look and feel. White walls and ceiling makes it look modern and clean. The floor looks great but I am not sure it was finished. DJ Brian Dawe was excellent and one of the coolest things events was adding a live drummer to play along with the DJ. I am not sure that everyone at RBARR even noticed it, but it was something that really stood out. And last Danielle Hunter looked fabulous when I saw her in the club, however when I tried to get in to see the show at the Southern Nights Theater, I was told “Sorry reservations only.” – even for a single!<br /><br /></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_FM--GB-zJY/U3aLmr4_gzI/AAAAAAAAAGs/GE1TqCQ9ykk/s1600/rbarr-drummer.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-_FM--GB-zJY/U3aLmr4_gzI/AAAAAAAAAGs/GE1TqCQ9ykk/s1600/rbarr-drummer.jpg" /></a><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"></span></div><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">I know this is the Grand Opening Weekend RBARR and some areas are still under construction but here are my problem areas and areas for improvement for RBARR.<br /><br /><b>Communication</b><br />If there was one thing that was lacking and even pissed me off it was lack of communication, that runs from their Facebook page to the location. Here are some examples:<br /><b>Cover</b> – If you have one STATE IT<br />If You have FREE DRINKS – And Someone pays a cover, why not let them know there are Free Drinks!<br /><b>Dress Code</b> – Be Consistent and state what is and isn’t acceptable<br /><b>For the Shows have Signs</b> - SOLD OUT - Reservations Only or a Seating is Available Sign <br /><b>Facebook</b> – Learn to use it to share information & answer questions<br /><br /><b>Still Under Construction</b><br />The outside bar, flooring, ceiling and a few other areas are not finished yet, while I know there are delays and the original opening was pushed back but you’ve got to get those things completed. Your first impression was – you’re not ready yet. <br /><br /><b>Bartenders</b><br />Mixed review here, I notice one or two play favorites with people they knew and others work their area. I waited almost 15 minutes in the first line only to walk away and find someone else. You either need to add more bartenders or remind the others they are there to serve drinks. <br /><br />Some online comment noted that they had rude bartenders, however I did not see that in person.<br /><br /><b>Private Area or Not Private Area?</b><br />One this that perplexed my all night was the illusion that the chic bar to the left of the dance floor was exclusive because there was a guy holding a red velvet rope and letting people in and out. Turns out he let everyone I watched go into this area and then place the rope back, I got into this area without a word. So my question, Why have a rope?, just leave it open so all can enjoy.<br /><br />All in All I think that if RBARR can get it’s act together they can be a welcome addition to the Orlando Gay scene, however the Grand Opening’s first impression was one that says there is still work to be done. <br /><br />Grand Opening Weekend Events include:<br /><!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--></span><strong style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">Friday 5/16/14 with DJ Zog - Miami's #1 DJ<br />Saturday 5/17/14 with DJ Justin James</strong><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><br /><br />For more information visit <a href="https://www.facebook.com/rbarrorlando" target="_blank">RBARR's Facebook page</a><br /><br />We will follow up in a few weeks and update you on RBARR's Status.<br /><br /><b>Russ J<br /><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/">VisitGayOrlando.com</a></b></span><br /><br />Gday Boihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264437455542993518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753649934972196354.post-75451399590004209062013-05-28T10:37:00.000-07:002013-05-28T10:37:00.063-07:00Orlando Gay Days - What's New for 2013 and What's Gone, Gone, GoneEvery Year Orlando's Gay Days has new and retired events.

As the economy took a turn for the worse during 2008 and 2009, One Mighty Weekend ran into financial issues and the run was over.<br /><br />Mark Baker, One Magical Weekend - <a href="http://www.onemagicalweekend.com/" target="_blank">Typhoon Lagoon Riptide party</a>, Gay Days and Parliament House, stepped in to replace events or create new events for the Gay Days weekend. Some like Riptide, Liquid Pool Parties and Parliament House have had great success, but the Universal and After Hours parties, while fun just never had the same feel and excitement as they did in prior years.<br /><br />This year One Mighty Weekend and Johnny Chisholm returns to Orlando's Gay Weekend of events and many people are waiting to see if it is a return to glory or has Gay Days visitor changed and no longer wants after hours parties that run til 6 am. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://onemightyweekend.com/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1DPZFNoFIJ0/UaTS8WkT9jI/AAAAAAAAAF0/if2NZt25464/s1600/omw-graphic-blog.jpg" /></a></div>Well with the Official Gay Days Kick Off party tonight, it sounds like <a href="http://onemightyweekend.com/" target="_blank">One Mighty Weekend</a> is setting itself up for success. <br /><br />Right now there are less than 25 rooms left at the One Mighty Weekend host hotel and with warm weather and sunshine they expect to sell out. This bodes well for the Reunion Pool Parties.<br /><br />The Magic Journeys After Hours parties are Hosted by Alan T and offer some great DJ's like Danny Tenaglia, Gustavo Scorpio, Joe Gauthreaux and Rosabel. Right now we don't have a read on whether 1,000, 3,000 or more people will attend these events. If you like these DJ's it should be an awesome time and I think the results of the after hours events will help determine if One Mighty Weekend expands its Orlando Gay Weekend lineup in 2014. <br /><br />Right now, no one can predict whether the large theme park party with a variety of performers will return to Gay Days or if the WE party at Epcot will be the new standard, but I can say I had the most fun at 2007 MGM Party and wish there was event like that to go to this year. <br /><br />We hope the <a href="http://onemightyweekend.com/" target="_blank">One Mighty Weekend</a> has a successful return so that they and all of us can have more great memories at Orlando's Big Gay Weekend. <br /><br /><b>Rus J<br /><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/">VisitGayOrlando.com</a></b>Gday Boihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264437455542993518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753649934972196354.post-62936597762325614552013-04-26T16:44:00.000-07:002013-04-26T16:44:08.648-07:00Savoy Orlando's Grand Re-Opening - Monday 29th!<span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">On April 1<sup>st</sup> I noticed two Facebook postings that stated, we are the new owners of Savoy! </span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/bars/" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UT0KMqi9Two/UXsQdmv4TdI/AAAAAAAAAFc/Lq4kkCbFI-0/s1600/savoy-orlando-sm.jpg" /></a></span></div><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">My first re-action was April Fools, as it would make a great joke to pull on friends.

The Brink used to be open 7 Days a Week and now are open 5 Days a Week.</strong> <br />Does this mean the Brink is going under? No. Closing on nights that are dead is a smart business decision and Pulse is successful with it. <br /><br /><strong>2. Happy Hour or No Happy Hour?</strong> Who Knows!<br />On the web site they note a Happy Hour on days that they are open, but on their Facebook page someone said the doors were locked for Happy Hour. Dear Brink, do two thing decide happy hour or not and keep your web site and Facebook pages up to date. <br /><br /><strong>3. Club Leased "Saturday Nights" for 6 Weeks</strong><br />Um... What? Yes, The Brink has leased out Saturday Nights and it is now a Latin Club on Saturdays known as Rehab. When a business states they couldn't pass up the offer, it means we need more revenue and this allows us to pay the bills. The Bottom line is a club has costs and if you aren't making it you have to find new revenue streams or close the doors. <br /><br />IMHO: The Rehab Saturday test is to see if The Brink can be more successful as a Latin Club than a Gay Club. The best way to test the waters rather than invest huge amount of cash is to do this one night a week type club. <br /><br />Last we have seen straight clubs do gay nights on "off nights" but they rarely ever do it on a money night like Friday or Saturday, so with a review of the fact it does appear that The Brink is shopping for a new more profitable concept and if this pans out it will be on to the next chapter as Rehab or something else. <br /><br /><strong>Rus J - <a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/">VisitGayOrlando.com</a></strong>Gday Boihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264437455542993518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753649934972196354.post-45495181271676038932012-07-02T15:34:00.000-07:002012-08-18T14:11:16.218-07:002XIST Men's Underwear % Off!

Mostly I didn't want to know if I had HIV and lets be honest who wants to know, but it is important to know. <br /><br />So when I was challenged to get a Free HIV test by a guy in the Orange County Health Department, I did what most guys would do I walked away. <br /><br />Yes, I grabbed a few free condoms and kept walking. I don't have time for it, there are other things to do and see and after being given a flyer about Vanilla Donut anal beaching cream and walking through the adult expo I realized I needed to take the test. <br /><br />However even though I knew I was at low risk I had anxiety and second thoughts about taking an HIV test even as I walked up to the booth again. <br /><br />With hesitatation, I asked about the testing, got instructions as to where to go and want to share my experience with you. <br /><br />1. First you head to a room and wait to meet with a Couselor that will administer the test. <br />2. Once in the testing room, you sign a consent form and complete some basic information that will be kept private. <br />3. Your finger is cleaned and your finger is pricked and blood it taken for the test.<br />4. The Couselor asks questions concerning risk issues. <br />5. Within 15 minutes you'll have your HIV test results, mine were negative.<br /><br />Stopping the spread of HIV is important and knowing if you have HIV is where you need to start. Take 15 minutes out of your Gay Days weekend and get tested. Whether you are positive or negative, you need to know. Then continue to practice safe sex and have a great weekend. <br /><br /><strong>RusJ <br /><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/" target="_blank">VisitGayOrlando.com</a></strong>Gday Boihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264437455542993518noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753649934972196354.post-40719316447092306272012-05-31T12:20:00.000-07:002012-05-31T16:47:42.074-07:00Orlando / Disney Gay Weekend - Best Bets for FridayWith over 20 events scheduled for Friday June first, the "Unofficial" Disney Gay Days Weekend is in full swing.

Pastor Worley comments and imagery reminds me of the Nazi concentration camps. The most frightening part of this is that his congregation cheered this. This is how the seeds of evil grow. However, little does this pastor seem to realize that straight men and women will continue to have more gay children and any gay teens in that congregation are most likely scared to death.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">It even gets uglier when you encourage a child to learn the words and sing this song.<br />"Ain't No Homos Gonna Make It To Heaven" <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="203" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/p4LHw3KWS9A" width="360"></iframe><br /><br />And the fact that people cheer this kid on is sad and disturbing. And yes the audience contained adulterers, people wearing multi-blended fabric clothing and women who sex before marriage - All reasons the bible notes people should be put to death and / or not allowed into heaven. Again, the audience cheers and this child is unfairly put into a cruel spotlight, he will be known as the Ain't No Homo boy. The parents have gone to far.<br /><br /><strong>And last David Caton of the Florida Family Association</strong> states, Disney's Gay Day is really about targeting children and that Disney is fully behind it. <br /><br />First - The Florida Family Association is like the Million Moms Group, it doesn't really represent Families it only works to push their point of view. <br /><br />Second - Disney doesn't sponsor Gay Day nor did they create it. <br /><br />Third - Targeting Children - Huh? <br />What person thinks gay people are recruited, oh let me guess you saw that on Ellen's sitcom and thought gay people also get a free microwave when they come out? Sure join us, gay men and women, you'll be bullied, stressed, scared to be yourself, question why you are the way you are, maybe consider suicide, live a double life, be fearful of holding your partners hand in public, be hated by strangers for just being who you are and so much more. <br /><br />The fact is that most gay people want to be accepted as being normal, because we are normal. We were born this way. <br /><br />I am tired of people saying such cruel and mean things. Gay Days is a chance to allow gay men and women to relax and know they are safe and can have fun without brutal scrutiny. <br /><br />I will be wearing red and be at The Magic Kingdom Saturday to let others from across the country know they are not alone. So go ahead and banner and work to spread your hated, we will be joining together and celebrating our strength and diversity.<br /><br /><strong>RusJ <br /><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/">VisitGayOrlando.com</a></strong></div>Gday Boihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264437455542993518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753649934972196354.post-32788375055644442722012-05-31T08:20:00.000-07:002012-05-31T08:20:17.078-07:00Orlando Gay Days - Thursday Best BetsGay Days is here and things start heating up today. <br /><br />Here is our Quick List of Best Bets for Thursday in Orlando!<br />See the complete list of <a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/gay-days/men_thursday.php" target="_blank">Thursday activities</a> or check out <a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/bars/" target="_blank">Orlando's gay bars</a>. <br /><br /><strong>The Official </strong><a href="http://gaydays.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Gay Days Expo</strong></a> opens Thursday, so why not head down to the Host Hotel and check out the companies that support our community, get free samples, enjoy the pool and maybe meet some new friends.

While Miss Gay Days won a sash and a crown, I am not sure if was any accolades to winning this title and so for this year it is no more.<br /><br />Eufuria - The perfectly named Bears Dance Party lost steam last year when the Gay Days Bears wing and the popular evening pool parties were so successful. The weather last year was amazing and few wanted to leave the pool to head inside even when they had purchased tickets. So this year they will focus on a great pool party and if the voices are loud enough, who knows Eufuria could return for 2013.<br /><br /><strong>RusJ <br /><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/" target="_blank">VisitGayOrlando.com</a></strong><br /><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #bb3300;">Visit Gay Orlando</span></a> has a complete calender of <a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #bb3300;">Orlando's Gay Weekend</span></a> events from concerts to parties, comedians and more.Gday Boihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264437455542993518noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753649934972196354.post-84907698162497227342012-05-29T10:53:00.002-07:002012-05-29T10:53:55.015-07:00Beryl Brings Rain, Orlando Gay Days Weather Forecast!Tropical Depression Beryl has brought much needed rain to Orlando the past few days but all signs point to Beryl making a timely exit just in time for Gays Days. <br /><br />One thing we know in Orlando is that the weather forecast, even three days, unpredictable but what we can say is the weather is improving.

However, this hotel is on Disney Property, rates are $90 a night and up, it's just around the corner from Buena Vista Palace, there are bound to be gay guests there but most longer not exclusively gay. <br /><br />4. <strong>Courtyard Marriot & Fairfield Inn - Girls in Wonderland</strong>The Girls in Wonderland is off Disney property but host pool parties and events for the ladies.

The good news is rooms are available at a good price and guests are likley to be gay men. If interested in staying at the Holiday Inn I would check the site, <a href="http://www.gaycollegeweekend2012.com/">http://www.gaycollegeweekend2012.com/</a>, and call the number on the flyer as the group code to book only was no longer working. <br /><strong>End Update 5/16/12<br /></strong><br />However Based on a Dramatic Change to Gay College Weekend's Web Site<br /><strong>The Parties & Events may be Cancelled - but you can still book a hotel room.</strong>- The difficult thing is there is no one to contact or call to confirm anything with Gay College Weekend and my best guess is that they overspent on ads and the lineup and didn't really know what was needed to succeed. Then when the deposits were needed for event space they realized they didn't have enough money to meet the commitments. <br /><br />Please note: While we are trying to get information on confirm or deny our theory, there is no contact person or listed on the web site and to be honest that always makes me nervous. <br /><br /><strong>Let's Review the Gay College Weekend 2012 Changes</strong><br />As of last week, the site was promoting a weekend of events including Grindr in the Dark, Pool Parties and the very interesting Jocks in Underwear party. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a63p94Nkdn8/T60yxzgnLTI/AAAAAAAAAEo/rMJIkQpgUPM/s1600/gcwp-12-events.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-a63p94Nkdn8/T60yxzgnLTI/AAAAAAAAAEo/rMJIkQpgUPM/s320/gcwp-12-events.jpg" width="253" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />And the Gay Events Magazines are featuring the current ad: <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bSxv3GMqX_Q/T60zi7XFWCI/AAAAAAAAAE0/WRTS91bOz7A/s1600/gcwp-12-events-ad.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bSxv3GMqX_Q/T60zi7XFWCI/AAAAAAAAAE0/WRTS91bOz7A/s320/gcwp-12-events-ad.jpg" width="222" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />The Today 5/11/12, we noticed a dramatic change to the Gay College Weekend home page and there is no longer a mention of weekend events or a link to the home page just a Book Now and Directions link. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iWk6niEkv90/T601T6HQfaI/AAAAAAAAAFA/Y8iki3CsIhU/s1600/gcwp-12-events-newhp.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="172" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-iWk6niEkv90/T601T6HQfaI/AAAAAAAAAFA/Y8iki3CsIhU/s320/gcwp-12-events-newhp.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />The Revised <a href="http://gaycollegeweekend2012.com/" target="_blank">Gay College Weekend</a> now highlights P-House parties and a discount if you stay at the Gay College Weekend hotel, imho reaching out to Mark Baker & Wonder World might have made a little more sense as GCW could have been seen as an overflow hotel. Baker's Wonder World hotel is likely to sell out all his rooms soon and you could walk (if needed) or at least bus over guests wanting to attend late night Tunnel parties and Liquid pool parties. <br /><br />Again while we don't have any confirmation on what's happening or not happening at GCW2012, we must admit it is not a huge surprise that GCW has struggled. First college kids don't have a ton of money or credit cards. They need to work all summer and many can't even drink yet. Second if your not out in college then listing GCW as a LIKE on your Facebook page is not going to happen so hard to spread word of mouth. Third, the people first to post on the web site appeared to be older guys excited to be staying at a hotel with college guys, umm that does not inspire college guys to book in advance. <br /><br />And last is that college kids don't plan very far in advance and they are the least likley of the gay community to book a flight, room, etc... College kids plan days in advance based on weather and money in there pockets. <br /><br />The hotel can still be a success as it is expected to be gay for the weekend, the rates are lower the Buena Vista Palace and Gay Days hotels and you are near Typhoon, Disney and Mark Barker Events, but it appears that the GCW specific parties may be a wash. <br /><br /><strong>RusJ<br /><a href="http://visitgayorlando.com/">VisitGayOrlando.com</a></strong><br />Check out the full line up of <a href="http://www.visitgayorlando.com/" target="_blank">Orlando's Gay Weekend Events</a><br /><a href="http://www.visitgayorlando.com/gay-days/mens_pool_parties.php" target="_blank">Men's Pool Parties</a>, <a href="http://www.visitgayorlando.com/gay-days/mens_parties.php" target="_blank">Dance Parties</a> and More.<br /><br /><br />Gday Boihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10264437455542993518noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753649934972196354.post-28562705388301916702012-05-11T07:20:00.003-07:002012-05-16T08:50:42.100-07:00Hotel Room Update - Orlando Gay Days Weekend 2012We are three weeks out from Orlando's largest Gay event, when 100,000 visitors come to celebrate in Orlando.
