| Boss Martians Churchill's Pub | Fri., September 5 | Miami/Central Dade | |
This sweaty, sticky summer hasnt been good to SoFlas garage rock fans. Aside from local groups, who praise be have been innovatively playing everywhere from museums to retail stores, weve experienced a drought in kick-ass touring rock acts. Thankfully, kiddos,... More >> |

| Tribute to Siouxsie Respectable Street | Fri., September 5, 9:00pm | Central Palm | |
Siouxsie Sioux might be one of those names you only associate with late ΄80s nostalgia, but the former Banshees front-woman is anything but a flash in the pan. Throughout her years as the founding member of the hard-to-peg rock band, Siouxsie became sort of like the godmother to Gothic... More >> |

| Danny Daze Glass | Every week Friday, 10:00pm | South Beach | |
It's doubtful that DJ Danny Daze loves the road above all else, but he sure seems to be on it a lot. Mondays at Tabu in Vegas, Saturdays at either Slide in San Francisco or Pittsburgh's Privilege, the cat's back and forth from the airport more times in a week than most folk are in a year. And...

| Bathhouse: The Musical! Rising Action Theatre | Every week Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., August 22 until Sun., September 7 | Fort Lauderdale | |
Billy wasnt like the other boys; he wanted a romance that looked as good dry as it did wet. What he got was a musical education about the not-so-complex world of bathhouse relationships, namely that few unions linger after the post-coital steam settles. No, this isnt the conceptual... More >> |

| Burn Baby Burn Lava Tiki Bar & Grille | Every week Friday, 6:00pm | Southeast Broward | |

| Ladies Night at the Mai-Kai Mai-Kai Restaurant and Polynesian Show | Every week Friday | Fort Lauderdale | |
For many years it was widely believed that the greatest thing about the Mai-Kai wasnt the fire dancing (although it is hypnotizing). Or the bikini-clad waitresses (also hypnotizing). Or even the mystery drink (If youve never ordered one, it involves: fire, a gong, and a dancer from... More >> |

| The Last Mistress Lake Worth Playhouse | Daily from Wed., September 3 until Sat., September 6 | Central Palm | |
With better costumes than any porn film, more gripping suspense than Fatal Attraction, and perhaps even racier sex scenes than that infamous HBO series (you know which one we mean) is the little French import, The Last Mistress. Directed by the ever-controversial Catherine Breillat, this tale... More >> |

| Lunch Specials at Chocolada Chocolada Bakery & Cafe | Daily | Southeast Broward | |

| Lying in State Caldwell Theatre Company | Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., September 5 until Sun., September 21, 8:00pm | South Palm | |
Communist societies have a custom of embalming their leaders and putting them in glass display cases. Mao and Lenin enjoyed this fate: decades have gone by and their skin still hasnt lost that shine. (How long is it before nitroglycerine is used in anti-aging treatments?)
The play Lying... More >> |

| Minerals Rock Museum of Discovery and Science | Daily | Fort Lauderdale | |
One of the first things they teach in science is that stuff is made out of other stuff, or rather, the more you break things down, the more things you find to break down further. Take a rock, for example: Rocks are composed of one or more minerals. Some rocks have just one primary mineral, like... More >> |

| Sympathy for the Devil Museum of Contemporary Art | Daily from Thu., May 29 until Sun., September 7 | North Dade | |
Anyone with framed records hanging on their walls gets it. So do concert goers who secretly attend shows with Exacto knives in their handbags. (Wha-at? Tape is tough to remove from posters!) Rock n roll has forever been arts ultimate muse, and in many cases, the opposite is... More >> |

Back in the day, the nicest thing about being an Olympic athlete was the art. If you were good, people would paint you, sculpt you, and write songs about you. Acanthus of Sparta was celebrated by Thucydides, and whole mythologies grew up around Milo of Croton according to legend, he... More >> |

| Thank God It's Honey The Lounge | Every week Friday from Fri., August 15 until Sat., February 28, 8:00pm | Central Palm | |
Of all the many reasons to participate in local music (an occasional free bar tab, throwing a little shade at the opposite sex), an earnest attempt at cultivating a cool little scene is too often an afterthought.
That is, unless youre Steve Rullman of Thehoneycomb.com.
