    DION ...PIANO ROOM info

    I think it was two years ago waiting outside the piano bar for Stephanie & Dion to start their show, (during the foam party they performed outside) when the shout went out Dion had collapsed.
    In fact as most know he had a massive stroke. We know after great rehabilitation, we heard he's back, but, only one night per week, and that a guy from the band was playing the piano.Who good as he is we also know Dion is a hard act to follow and the personality side of things would be gone.

    We are great supporters of Dion and believe HE IS the piano bar, in the passed when he went to China? and others stepped in....It was not the same by an English mile.
    So last year we missed our trip, waiting for Dion's recovery. The resort says " He's back" my insider says "Only occasional visits" So guys what do you know? Steph could surely hold that place down, we'd be happy to see her.

    Also, moan, moan, Has the disco MUSIC got any better? Ok, so we won't see 40 again, but we like to boogie to stuff we know.....and not what the young staff DJ likes to hear.

    When we were there in May, Dion was in the piano bar each night, along with Stephanie, and they put on a great show each night. When he first came back, I think he did work a reduced schedule, but I think he is working normally now. We head back in early December and look forward to seeing him.

    Unfortunately in the disco, the music was the same....

    Deon and Stephanie are back doing their normal schedule. They are off Tuesdays and Thursdays. She does her upbeat courtyard show with him on Fridays. He is still relearning songs, but am amazed with his recovery. Been friends with both for years and was so happy to see him playing again last February.

    The 2 house DJs are the same ones, one is more in tune with what guests want than the other.

    We noticed in April of this year, Dion was a little more subdued in his antics, with no one dancing on the piano, although this could be a new resort policy too.
    The piano bar wasn't as crowded as it used to be in previous years. Seats were easy to get.

    laugh insanely, fuck like you're the star of a porn film, and forgive quickly.

    In October this year (resort sold out) the piano bar was busy and Dion was fun although his voice was not a good as it used to be. He had people on the piano most nights and did the Hedo favourites. My peeve with the piano bar is when he lets guests sing and play for a long time. When we were there, he let one guy play and sing for 1/2 hour almost every night, most people left.
    I GO TO THE PIANO BAR to be entertained by Dion NOT by the RESORT GUESTS and used to look forward to Piano Bar.
    The guest sing but do not entertain. Don't mind one quick song by guest but maybe limit it to two Guests and one song. This might sound grumpy but that is the way I feel. I think because of this, the piano bar is not as busy as it used to be.

    I can personally attest to "dancing on the piano" having returned, as I was coaxed up there during our trip in September.

    This is all great news guys thank you. I agree too much guest singing is a pest, on the other hand I love the bad ones, (I am one) and think that can be very entertaining. Its nice to see the have a go's jump in now and again, plus isnt it a Hedo thing to do something you wouldn't normally ? But Dions the real star.

    Right...lets sort the disco music.
    My favorite line to the DJ is " Does your Mother like this music"? They always laugh and say...."Nooooo" I say "Neither do we, as we are the same as as ya Mum.
