I know some people carpool to Tampa on Wednesdays when 3 clubs cator to
that crowd in the Ybor City bar district. I won't plug names since I
work down there, but things were better before greedy people tore the
scene apart.

You definately need to see THE CASTLE on Fridays.

Visage closed some years ago (brief moment of silence) only to be
converted to an AA club (long moment of hysterical laughter at irony).
Currently there are 2 real options for clubs in Orlando - Club Zen
(goth/industrial on friday, saturday and sunday nights) and Embassy
(old wave 80's stuff on wednesday, but industrial is mixed in).

CLub Zen is on Aloma between 436 and Hall/Howell Branch, and Embassy
is off of Lee Road east of I-4 (plaza with a Ross clothes store)

If you want to email me with the area you will be staying, I can
try to get better directions for you.

Also, on Monday nights you can listen to Petty Eccentricity, an
industrial/gothic radio show. It airs from 10p-12mid on 91.5FM
WPRK (see playlists posted further down).

: You definately need to see THE CASTLE on Fridays.

I can't argue with The Castle (Tampa-ish). Though it tends more
toward goth than industrial.

I read this as I hold a piece of the old Visage dance floor in my
hand.

But so does Zen. Everytime I go there the ratio of goth to industrial
is something like 80 to 20 and what little industrial they do play is
(usually) the staple Puppy, Gruesome Twosome, etc stuff (although I did
actually here Suicide Commando played there.....once) It's too bad too
because I live less than 1 mile from Zen, but I'd much rather make the 1
hour trek into Ybor to go to the Castle.

Ever been over to Melbourne to DV8? It's held once a month at Cold
Keg and sponsored by The Shop. This is the place to hear some really
good tunes, but the people that go there seem to be introverts. No one
ever dances!

If you don't mind the drive up to Jacksonville for The Metro on
Wednesdays, you may enjoy it. It's mostly goth and 80's at the beginning of
the night, however, songs from Mentallo, Snog, Covenant, Blue-Eyed Christ,
and haujobb are acually becoming club hits here.

Oh hell! I wish I'd stopped in here sooner. Don't go to the Castle. It's
a hole of gophic (sp on purpose) pretensiousness. The only two times you'll
hear good industrial music in there are RARELY and SELDOM. Check the Edge
on wednesday nights. Anthony's the usual dj, he's catching up to the new
stuff and doesn't mind playing it. If he's not there then it'd be Brian,
and he goes out of his way to put good industrial and electro out on the
floor.

The Castle. Bah to cloves and snooty chalk-white noses.
