I am listening to the email show and the question of nightlife consistently comes up now that the clubs at PI are closed. I'm hoping we can keep this thread at the top and have it provide a source of information for people looking for night time entertainment at WDW.
I have sent voicemails to the podcast regarding this issue specifically and they were not played for whatever reason(probably because I'm rather critical of Disney on this matter and my voice intonation shows it)
So lets get together and help people figure out what "in the world" you can do at night. There are several aspects of "nightlife." Maybe you enjoy comedy/entertainment and maybe you love dancing, or maybe you just wanna grab a drink somewhere relatively peaceful.
So since I'm an avid night club fan, I will start. Here is what we have for dancing:
Atlantic Dance - This is located across from Jellyrolls. They are open Tues-Sat with no cover and are 21+ all nights. The music is a "Video dance party" and uses a request format. That means the music being played has a video to go with it 99% of the time. It's typically best to show up at 11pm. If they are gonna be busy, they will be busy by then and if not, then it's probably not going to get busier. They play music from the 70s to today's top 40s. Their main target audience is the convention crowd, but things like spring break can change the primary audience. The music generally starts older and works newer throughout the night. I am a door host there usually once a week and it can be busy or slow on any night of the week, but since it's no cover, it's usually worth checking out. Some PI DJs do spin there so that gives it a little bit of the old feel of the clubs.
For dancing, that is IT. Zero, nada, zilch, for anything else in terms of dancing on property. For additional information on dancing opportunities off property, you can visit http://savepleasureisland.blogspot.com
Entertainment:
JellyRolls - the podcast covered this pretty good. It's a 10 dollar cover, dueling pianos, and is a lot of fun.
Kim possible adventure at EPCOT while drinking - tons of fun. Get a drink at each country it sends you to before you start the mission for that country.
Special events:
Dis member and PI advocate kingbobofthenorth is in negotiations with the mouse to rent out Soundstage at PI for a Mannequins reunion. The event, if they come to terms, will be held May 2nd. The music will feature Mannequins DJ peapod as well as many former patrons and Bob is working hard to add in other extra touches to help with the theme of the night.
Please add in your own thoughts and suggestions and I will try to keep this main post updated. Please refrain from discussions about PI and your opinion on the situation there. You can visit http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1931928 and spill your heart out there. I know I did.

Be prepared to join in the fun - even if you don't want to.
