Art Basel Week: Andy Rourke at PS14, Dec. 5

andyrourke.jpgStatic Interference, the occasional locals-only extravaganza thrown by the band Astari Nite at PS14, continues during Art Basel with a night dedicated to a band everyone likes: the Smiths. The party's called, unsurprisingly, Louder than Bombs, and it's billed as a sort-of-tribute night. Besides Astari Nite, a ton of other Miami acts perform, including the Monday Photo, Champagne Days, the Mission Veo, and Down Home Southernaires. They'll be playing mostly originals, though, and brave are the musicians who actually tackle a Smiths tune -- Andy Rourke, the band's original bassist, holds court tonight as the DJ between sets.

$10; 10 p.m.; ages 18+ with ID; PS14, 28 NE 14th St., Miami; 305-358-2600; www.ps14.com
