Pavillion

Went twice this year and had a fab time both times. Cute boys. Could dance with my shirt off and shake my money maker. Fun and friendly crowd.

Once again the powers that be have destroyed what used to be the hot spot of the PINES. I've been going to FI Pines for years, and the Pavillion was always the place to be, dancing late into the night with a great hot crowd. We were there over the 4th of JULY weekend 2009, and a mess. In a nutshell, long lines to get in for the $20 cover... small dance floor, trapped space, pushing and shoving, and guys trying to have a good time. After the first night, we tried it again, and it was the same mess. Spent more time outside, then dancing...very dissapointed..

I'VE BEEN A FIP GOER SINCE 1985 & am sad to write that I spent ABSOLUTELY THE WORST WEEKEND EVER during the recent July 4-07 week !! The Pavillion was a MESS !! No FLOW, HOT as Hell & you are TRAPPED in a BOX between the BAR & the Bathroom. WHO DESIGNED THIS MESS ??? Several times I thought I would FAINT .... & they had the nerve to charge $20 at the door ! Of course after a few Mini Premieres of this new BOX, people got the picture & STAYED AWAY IN DROVES !! The place was EMPTY July 4th !! A FIRST I am SURE !! WORSE is NOW there is a VERY VERY VERY OVERPRICED ($10.00 for a Loaf of Bread !) Supermarket where the BAR used to be !! What the hell is that the beginning of ?? How much more $$ are these people going to milk out of us ??? Simply said, the "New" Pavillion is D.O.A. There is NO ESCAPE FRM ANY OF IT !! I had to SCREAM or LEAVE !! So we all left.... with about 1,000 other disappointed people. I have ALWAYS enjoyed my trips to FIP, but sad to say they will never see this queen again. So many memories, so many FABULOUS TIMES ! So many friends would turn over in their graves !!P.S. Check your rentals, ours was a FILTHY DISASTER & the Real Esatate Agent was a SMART ASS !!
