Guest appearance by MC Rad last night. He’s hosting Rockstar Karaoke this Tuesday at O-Bar.

Tales of a fish-eye coming up shortly. And don’t worry, Kaypee – it’s not like I’m going to embarrass anyone on the front page of our website.. But I reserve the right to tag you in a couple photos on Facebook later. Shame on you.

If you’re ever bored in the middle of the night – go see Jean at the Shell gas station on University and Dean. She’s got what I like to call a “golden personality.” Just have a talk with her. I love me some Jean

“You look like you go to Full Sail.”

Photos from last nights festivities to be up shortly, just after I return from Taco Bell.

Also, check out our new Facebook! Orangecounty Concepts! Add us today!

And a special thanks to Juan for making last night at O-Bar that much more entertaining.

10. A substantially smaller number of dude bros than other UCF spots.
Ever since Full Effekt and I implemented our “dirty raw fist pumping electro from 1am till close” policy we have weeded out a few of the “can you play any track off of the Carter III” crowd and the dudes in “Sigma Fly” shirts. Not haitin’, just sayin’.

9. Juan the bartender.
He puts the “swing” in “let me see your hips swing” and the “thrill” in “thriller”. Wither he is being forced to do the Michael Jackson dance on the bar or guessing the ingredients to the weirdly named drink you just ordered, Juan is the king of the cocktagon.

8. Saturday/Thursday has the word Saturday in it.
Unfortunately Saturday/Thursday is only one day a week, so Shit Show will have to do on the real Saturday nights.

7. Myself and Full Effekt…. All we do is party! Hah Hah Hah Haaah!
I am proud to say I do the ONLY UCF area night where people actually request MSTRKRFT.

6. – J. Chris Callahan.
His photos would bring a tear to a glass eye… in a good way of course. Check out Chris taking the best party pics in town. They can all be found right here at orangecountyconcepts.com/photos

5. We got flava.
We are pushing our progressive cultural developments to the area one song and beer at a time. Octagon is one of the few UCF area bars that actually carry good beer. Recently added to the cornucopia of brews are Stella Artois, Blue Moon and Woodchuck. I know, every bar should have this but remember, we are in ucf where the words “free beer” are king…. speaking of which, if you are looking for a cheap drunk Shit Show offers free beer all night and liquor till midnight!

4. Clothing optional.

Our shirtless guy is way cooler than your shirtless guy…

3. Wanna go for a ride?
Don’t piss off Mark. If you do you will find out what this means.

2. Members only club.
SShhhhhhhh!!

Welcome back, Defame.

For those of you unfamiliar, Defame: Orlando is a local blogging site that pokes fun of Orlando’s night life in general. From calling out local celebrity douches down to the bitter gossip-infested comments, the website is run by an anonymous writer (But we know that more than one person knows the juice, as nobody can keep secrets. Especially one this good.).

Recently, DefameOrlando.com had shut it’s doors and ended the biggest gossip blog around. However, as of Thursday, the blog appears to have returned!

I highly recommend the read. Last week I mentioned it in a blog that received notoriety via the lovely Bloggytown of Orlando Weekly. But we all know nobody reads this shit.. so I repeat myself. DefameOrlando.com – check it out. You’ll become hooked.

Ironically enough, it was a Thursday that the blog revived itself. Keep on writing, Defame. Despite the flak – we all love it. Especially Kim.
www.DefameOrlando.com

Random Defame Orlando Fun Fact:

If you do a Google Image Search for “defame orlando,” the sixth image to appear is an Orange County Concepts image.

I thought about posting a photo of someone with “Defame Me” written on them, but I thought this would be a little better..

.. but really, quit wearing Crocs. You look ridiculous.

Let’s talk about promotional companies, shall we? More specifically, a little company called “What’s Gay Live.”

You remember them.. – from Scoop De Homo. For those of you who didn’t attend Scoop De Homo (which would be all of you) – it was a largely talked up event that bombed. However, it looks like we’re still recapping the “mayhem” on their website. As if one night sitting in an empty parking lot waiting for people to come wasn’t enough. Let’s help everyone recap the night:

That parking lot looks empty. Weird..

Poor Brian. We got stuck giving him the “sex talk” that night because of the condoms we found on the ground. Horrifying..

A stage setup, live bands, multiple DJ’s, vendors, and what not.. – and you might be asking yourself how Whats Gay paid for this? Easy. They didn’t. But hey, there’s always Dragon Room on Thursday and Defame Orlando’s favorite Tuesday night at Club Voyage. Gotta make that money, Nault. Because apparently, there’s a lot of people you owe..

If your Thursday ever folds, we’re always looking for promoters. We also need a bus driver that leaves from Liquid Cellar.. let us know if you’re interested.

On a side note, speaking of Thursday night – for those of you going up to Firestone courtesy of Orange County Concepts, make sure you’re there well before midnight, because I know a lot of people who got there at the last minute couldn’t use their card because the line was too long and they didn’t get through until after midnight.

P-Diddy says be there early – or die. He also said that there’s a free keg on the dance floor..

“This THURSDAY NIGHT come out to Orlando’s #1 Party!

::: WhatsGay THURSDAYS @ Drag Room :::”

Best Club Night in Orlando for 2007, and likely again – in 2008 as rated by Orlando Weekly: Saturday/Thursday at Club Firestone.

July 16th is when the 2008 ratings come out! Stay tuned!

This year has had some really good movie selections so far, and with the new Batman coming out next month, The new Mummy movie coming out in August, Saw 5 in October, followed up with James Bond 22 and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in November. The rest of this year will be awesome! I have already been looking into the smash hits for next year and I cant fucking wait!

My movie Line up for next year is a new Terminator Salvation, Fast and Furious, Bruno, X-Men Origins, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, G.I. Joe, Meet the Little Focker, and Final Destination 4.

I honestly cannot wait until next year, but since it looks like alot of the movies are sequals…I wonder how they are going to do.

“I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It’s so fuckin’ heroic.”

          As many of you may know by now, George Carlin passed away yesterday at the age of 71 from heart failure. Carlin was not just a comedian, he was a legend in his own right. Carlin’s words inspired and dared generations to think, whether you agreed with him or not. Many will mourn the death of this counterculture hero. He had an amazing mind and was undoubtedly one of my greatest inspirations. I regret that I will never have the pleasure of meeting this brilliant man. George Carlin, you will be greatly missed.

R.I.P. George Carlin 1937-2008

2.) Defame: Orlando (DefameOrlando.com)

Even as Defame Orlando concluded it’s blogging just a few days ago with a single sad post – it’ll be missed by many. Just as it started to get good, things ended abruptly. Calling out local douches, celebs, and whores – Defame: Orlando was Orlando’s blog. You’ll be missed, and I still sit you at no. 2, even as the doors are closed. Please come back somehow. If you’re ever wanting to continue writing and take it to the next step – myself and everyone at Orange County Concepts supports you. Take that for what it’s worth.

3.) Don’t Sleep Orlando (dontsleeporlando.com)

With much respect to Orlando’s night life, Becky’s blog is there to keep everyone in tune with the hot-spots of Orlando. Geared more towards the Indie/Electro/Rock scene, check out Becky’s blog if you’re unsure of what to do on any night of the week. With a hint of humor and great night life information, Don’t Sleep Orlando ranks no. 3 in Orlando’s blogging world. Much love.

4.) Glitter and Gold (glitterandgold.net)

With Miss Fit behind the operations, the newly founded Glitter and Gold has been on the rise. With news on the latest in fashion, music, and Orlando night life, the female staff consisting of Andi, Ashley, Melrose, Miss Fit, as with the male voice in DC – is a read to keep an eye on. Updated with the hottest music in the scene, the lovely Miss Fit hosts a local blog worth reading.

5.) What The Blog? – Brought to You By The Orlando Sentinel. (http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/features_popculture_blog/)

The Orlando Sentinel provides blogs for every age, liking, and style. However, their blog on pop culture reins king in my book. With news on the latest in somewhat Orlando related pop-culture, the What The Blog? provides your favorite in uselessly/ridiculous information to keep you humored on the web. With numerous writers contributing – the taste and style varies but overall is an amazing blog to keep up with. Top 5 favorite.

Thursday: Lynx is employing “Dump The Pump” and encouraging local commuters to ride aboard public transportation with a free all day pass good for this Thursday, June 19th. Support our local public transit system, avoid high gas costs, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by giving the Lynx bus a go. So with that in mind, you might be asking yourself, “Why don’t I just ride the Lynx bus to Firestone for free, use my picture card that Chris gave me last week to get in for free, and enjoy an open bar every thirty minutes?” (However, bus routes don’t continue too late – so plan for someone to take you home tomorrow night after Firestone. Because if you get stranded downtown without a ride, you’re likely going to get raped by a friendly black man with countless missing teeth who asked you for some change or some pliers. You know the one.) And as you know – if you’re ever downtown, the Lynx LYMMO is free!

Don’t forget, this Thursday is Saturday/Thursday at Firestone: The 2007 winner of Orlando Weekly’s “Best Club Night” in Orlando. With the return of Full Effekt tomorrow night, it sure to be a good one. Catch Full Effekt, Docta Dawe, and others spinning all night at Club Firestone this and every Thursday.

Here at Orange County Concepts – we love to keep our readers happy. And well, since you all asked for it in numerous emails and suggestions; we’ve brought you Mario Lopez formerly of “Saved By The Bell.”

Recently, our staff writer – also known as “Me,” was given the opportunity to sit down and have lunch with Mario Lopez here in Orlando, Florida. Some of you may know him from hit shows such as American Gladiators, Pet Star on Animal Planet, the obvious – Saved By The Bell, and the not so obvious – like The Golden Girls. Love me some Rose Nylund..

Anywho, since the glory days with Dustin Diamond and Mark-Paul Gosselaar our AC Slater’s made some noise on the television with the MTV hit show “America’s Best Dance Crew” with other notable talented stars such as JC Chasez from the glorious N’SYNC. (Sorry to those of you who still find N’SYNC to be a sore topic. At least there’s still Voyage here in Orlando to tie us to our N’SYNC roots.. Thanks, Chris!)

And well, in this, and all of his success – we felt it necessary to retrieve an interview with the great Mario Lopez. In good fashion, we went somewhere classy to MULLET things over. Hamburger Mary’s. Thanks for the recommendation, Defame: Orlando.

OCC: AC Slat- sorry. I mean Mario Lopez, thank you for joining me here today as I know you’re a busy boy with your dancing show and what not. So let’s get started:

AC: Sounds good, Chris.

OCC: Actually, I have a favor to ask of you.. You know how in like.. “Saved By The Bell”, you would call Zack Morris “Preppie?” Yeah, can.. you refer to me as “Preppie,” now? It’d mean a lot.

AC: Can we please not talk about “Saved By The Bell?”

OCC: Yeah, absolutely. Sorry. So lets talk about your career and television show, “America’s Best Dance Crew.” How is it to work with JC Chasez?

AC: JC’s a great guy. Him and I have been working together just fine. He’s about to release his second solo album this year.

OCC: Would you consider him to be your new right-hand man? You’re new Zack Morris?

AC: Last warning.

OCC: Right, right. Sorry. How’s that turkey burger?

AC: It’s fine. Can we continue?

OCC: Was Jessie really addicted to caffeine pills?

That was all that we had discussed over lunch. Mario had to leave. He said he had forgotten about a meeting he made with JC. Swell guy.

So in summary – Mario Lopez’s career is pretty much like a television show called, “Saved By The Bell: The College Years.” It’s not as good as it use to be. It’s not funny. It’s a desperate attempt at another fifteen minutes of fame, and we now have a television show hosted by washed up one-hit celebrities.

Thanks, MTV!

Weeds is back with an all new season four. The plot for the highly anticipated season four revolves around Nancy relocating the family, as with the business, from Agrestic to the beach town of Ren Mar located on the California/Mexico border.

“Mother Thinks The Birds Are After Her”
With the embers of Majestic and Agrestic smoldering in their rearview mirror, Nancy and family flee southbound to the border town of Ren Mar, California. eanwhile, the DEA interrogates Doug, Dean and Isabelle, who all pin the entire grow operation on Ceila. Back in Ren Mar, Andy confronts his father and new landlord Lenny.

For those of you who don’t watch it – you’re missing out. The witty, satirical comedy, as with the dark humor are merely the tip to the 2006 and 2007 Golden Globe winner for “Best TV Series – Comedy.” Showtime isn’t just for porn, kiddies! The premier of season four will be on Showtime at 10:00.

Fun Facts:

The Weeds Fan Page on Facebook has more fans than Mitt Romney and John Edwards do.

The top four presidential candidates according to Facebook:

1. Barack Obama

2. Hillary Clinton

3. John McCain

4.. and the underdog, Ron Paul in the number four spot.

Make sure you’re tuned in on Monday at 10:00 – because rumor has it that it’s the last time “Little Boxes” will be in the opening intro

“Alright, listen closely. I’m not going to beat around the bush. Ha ha ha. Your little body’s changing – it’s all good, believe me. Problem now is… every time we jerk the gerkin, we get a lot of unwanted sticky white stuff everywhere, right? Right. So… First order of business – no more socks. They’re expensive, gumming up the works plumming-wise. Now you might be thinking to yourself, “But, Uncle Andy, what do I do with all that pearl jam if I can’t spew it into Mr. Sock?” Glad you asked… You can have a lovely time tugging the tiger in the shower each morning – that eliminates the need for a goo glove. But, the day is long, masturbation’s fun, so unless we want to take 4-5 showers every day, we’re gonna need some other options. So let’s start with the basics. Tissues. Perfectly acceptable backstop for all that Creamy Italian. They can be rough and dry on such soft, sensitive skin and it can stick to your d**k like a f**kin’ band-aid – ouch. From there we move on to more lubricated flack catchers – specifically, bananas. Step one: Peel the banana. Step two: Slip the peel over your Randy Johnson and start pitching. Now for extra credit, warm up the peel in the microwave. Not too hot! Serious yowza. Also, olive oil, moisturizer, honey, spit, butter, hair conditioner, and Vaseline can all be used for lube. In my opinion, the best lube… is lube. So save your allowance and invest in some soon. Alright, moving on – when you tug your Thomas on the toilet – ffft – shoot right into the bowl. In bed – soft t-shirt, perhaps a downy hand towel of your very own that you don’t mind tossing after tossing. There’s no such thing as polishing the raised scepter of love too much. It reduces stress, it enhances immune function. Also, practice makes perfect. So work on your control now, while you’re a solo artist, you’ll be playing some long, happy duets in the future. Okay. Class dismissed.”
