Hello everyone,
I just want to start by saying, that I really enjoyed this little adventure that happened so unexpectedly. The night was originally a "plan option" we chose, that began our adventure in T. O.!!! However, things didn't work out, and we happened to hear an advertisement for this place at just the right timing. So we went to where 102.1 FM - The Edge (Radio) broadcasts from on a sat. night... The Pheonix Nightclub - 410 Sherbourne St.
I have been here before on numerous other occasions/ events, so I already knew what it was like inside... It has a large room with most of it being the dance floor, and fair sized smoking pit - unfortunately the fence is high, and you feel little air in there. Sad but true... lol None-the-less, it is MY KINDA PLACE!!! GREAT music, dance floor space, 3 bars to assist with your drinking demands (lol), and conveniently a large parking lot across the street... such easy access, it's almost a shame (lol).
The adventure here began before we even parked the vehicle... My friend Robobert was hangin' out with me this night, and he was also the designated driver. It was as we were pulling into the parking lot, and he was at the machine for purchasing parking passes. He was short a little change perhaps (not too sure on the details there... it was a good night... lol), and some guy was nearby that decided to pay for the pass for him. Kinda weird... Something about Karma here too, seeing how we couldn't find the previous event choice's address to park nearby... Apparently Robobert calls him "The "Karma dude"... who paid for the parking. THANK YOU KARMA DUDE!!!
So then we parked, got prepared with a greatly appreciated smoke break, and went in. The place was busy as usual, and of course they were kickin' some killer tunes for a busy dance floor. After getting a drink, we went to find somewhere to sit - which is pretty scarce in this place. So we decided to stand for a bit and I scoped the room. After my beer was 3/4 done, I decided to kick it on the dance floor. I don't tend to really dance with others even when I am actually dancing with them... so my friend knowing this, just let me take off to be in my own little realm.
I began to make my way towards the speakers through the dance floor, and decided to finish my beer before I started to boogie. After about 6 songs I saw Robobert make his way over to see how I was doin'. We decided to take a break and go to the pit for his cigarette craving... lol As soon as we neared the bottom of the steps, I saw an old friend leaning around others to see me, as if he wasn't sure if he was seeing things or just not sure if he knew me or not. We went and hung out with him while we were out there. It was a nice visit, it's been a while and I had forgotten how witty he can be. It was also just before an Event in K/W that was hosting some of my art (along with others), so I brought it up. Apparently he already knew of it due to knowing at least one of the owners, and coincidentally was actually suppose to be attending it for assistance sake. So of course I took the opportunity while we were chatting, to be as I call it "A phone number whore" (actually recently changed to be called "An Info. Whore"; which now includes emails, websites, etc...). He obliged by writing it down in my note pad for me. THANKZ!!! Muuuaaahhh!!! Then after prob. another 5 minutes or so, he left.
We went back in to dance & drink some more, and then after probably about an hour... to my surprise... What did we discover... AN UNEXPECTED FASHION SHOW!!! Yes, suddenly there were hot dancing girls up on stage to intro. the show!!! WOW... OK, I'm game!!! And I even had my camera with some batteries with me... great to be prepared!!! As I positioned myself off to one side, I found it got crowded fast and I was beginning to need to relocate... lol And so I did, but it was a quick showing of each dress/ garment. Thus unfortunately I did not get a lot of them from a front viewpoint, but did still get some good ones; so I'm happy. I think the show only lasted maybe 1/2 hour if that, and then it was done just as sudden as it had started. Kinda felt like I was in a "Twilight Zone" episode really... lol
After this we didn't stay too much longer, because it was already getting late and we still had to drive back to K/W. I think it was actually around 12:30 when the fashion show started, which is really odd to be sooo late if you ask me... butt of course it's all good to me. LOVE fashion shows!!! Glad we chose to go here instead really... I got to hang out with a good friend outside the usual "comfort zone", chat with an old friend, enjoy some great tunes & boogie with people that don't know me, and leave at a semi-decent hour... I think it was probably about 1:30 when we left the bar, but I could be mistaken.
It was a fun night that I have done before, and of course will do again. Thankz for joining me (and driving too of course) Rob!!! We'll have to do it again some time with some others along for the fun too... lol

Take care & Safe travels!!!
& of course...
WILD WICKED WISHES!!!
