Florida tends to remain on the receiving end of many a cruel joke, due to its comically unfortunate shape, its geographic positioning, the subtropical heat, and its weirdo populace. (Us!) Those of us who live here know how to take it. Heck, we’re laughing the loudest — when we’re not…
Before the honey-sweet vocal harmonies of indie folk darlings Tegan and Sara, there were the Indigo Girls. Their brand of heartfelt folk rock had commercial appeal from the beginning, leading to a quarter-century-long career for the singer/songwriters, who continue to write and tour today. But as two openly gay best…
Seattle-based indie rock quintet Minus the Bear emerged back in 2001 with a handful of quirkily-titled tunes — like “Hey, Wanna Throw Up? Get Me Naked,” “Lemurs, Man, Lemurs,” and “Pantsuit… Uggghhh” — but they’ve always been a serious band. They hit the studio before ever playing a show, crafting…
If you didn’t already know her, you might think Jessie Ware was just a regular girl. The family-oriented, superfriendly 28-year-old was an English lit major at the University of Sussex and had plans to attend law school. A self-proclaimed homebody and geek, the British songstress, whose debut album, Devotion, topped…
Bicyclists of Fort Lauderdale, we feel your pain. We know it can be tough navigating America’s fourth most dangerous metropolitan area for biking and walking and risking getting pulled over and profiled for lack of registration, all while dodging some of America’s worst drivers. Yet despite less-than-ideal conditions, our little…
Tropical Storm Karen’s got nothing on this weekend. With the monsoons seemingly behind us and a sweet hint of fall breeze sweeping through our flatlands, things are looking up for our first weekend of October. And now that front yards are filling up with pumpkins, ghouls, and other conspicuous reminders…
Guys, we have to admit it. We felt sort of bad calling you out in our last post, pegging you as a collection of one-dimensional stereotypes rather than fully exploring your deeper complexity, the subtle nuances that really make you you. The truth is, as much as we like to…
This week’s roundup of concerts brings us everything from the ethereal sounds of veteran classical crossover artist Sarah Brightman, to the wobbling, in-your-face dubstep that characterizes Montreal-based duo Adventure Club. Throw in a free show and a brand new music, art, and technology festival for good measure, and you’ve got…
It’s only Monday, but we already feel like dancing. With the summer officially behind us, of course we want to celebrate! As we look forward to our annual three days of sweater weather, fewer mosquitos, and the end of hurricane season, we can’t help but also get tickled with excitement…
Another weekend, another anxiety-ridden perusal of the ol’ bank accounts. We’re heading into the final stretch of September, and we’re trying our darnedest to stretch our wallets till the bitter end. That doesn’t mean we have to skimp on our intake of culturally relevant and fun weekend activities. Here at…
Ain’t no doubt about it, baby! With funk and soul-speckled tracks like Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky,” Bruno Mars’ “Treasure,” and Robin Thicke’s infamous “Blurred Lines” topping the pop charts this summer, disco is making a comeback in the mainstream in a very big way. Even Drake’s latest smash single, “Hold…
Fort Lauderdale is known for a few things: spring break, boats, the rich people who own the boats, the weird people who work on the boats, backward laws, and great waterfront properties. One thing it’s definitely not known for: its dating scene. While it can often seem that this city…
Don’t be sad. Last night’s highly anticipated Depeche Mode concert may have come and gone faster than Dave Gahan could change his vest, but it’s a brand new Monday, and we still have plenty to look forward to! This week’s concerts in South Florida run the gamut, from the smooth,…
It might be Friday the 13th, but lucky for you, we’ve got a handful of events that should help keep your weekend from going awry. Best of all, at $10 or less, they’re all also budget-friendly! From the new Black Fridays at the Vagabond to the return of Mikey Ramirez’s…
Last week, we announced that Green Room, the artsy, alternative sister venue to Revolution Live and America’s Backyard in downtown Fort Lauderdale, would be transitioning later this month into its latest incarnation, a more grown-up but still edgy mixology lounge called Stache. The name might sound like it would cater…
The new Miley Cyrus video for “Wrecking Ball” off her yet-to-be-released album Bangerz came out today. And, if you can believe it, it’s more inappropriate, shocking, and unbearably awkward than anything she’s put out yet. For nearly four minutes, the girl who just a couple of weeks ago created an…
With the dead of summer finally behind us, we’ve got a ton to look forward to. There’s sweater weather, the end of hurricane season, and, best of all, the start of a whole new round of fall tours. This week, visits by Joe Satriani, Maroon 5, and Depeche Mode (with…
Four late-night bars in Deerfield Beach are learning their lesson the hard way: Get it in writing, or it never happened. Dr. Philgoods, the Porthole Pub, El Reventon, and Tropicante, all located in south-central Deerfield Beach, have gone to federal court after the City Commission decided to pull the plug…
At last! This short week’s come to a close, and as we inch further away from Summer and deeper into the Fall, we’ll take any chance we get to cling to our permanent vacation mindset. This doesn’t mean hangin’ out and kicking it at home. Oh, no! Sure, you might…
