Ladies, look at your man. Now back to Akon. Now back at your man. Now back to Akon. Sadly, your man isn’t Akon. And much like the Man Your Man Could Smell Like from the Old Spice commercials, Akon’s on a horse. Perhaps not at this very moment. But the…
The four good-looking lads in Honor Society could be the New Kids on the Block for the millennial generation. The quartet brings its vibrant, R&B-infused pop to Fort Lauderdale’s Culture Room on Sunday, during its “Here Comes Trouble” tour’s second stop. Truth be told, Honor Society’s ties to boy bands…
To prevent confusion in our readership, Alesana is not some drop-dead gorgeous model hailing out of Milan. Nope. In actuality, Alesana is six somewhat-OK-looking guys from North Carolina who do the post-hardcore thing with some gusto and panache. Take the usual experimental leanings of the genre and view them through…
Lil Jon recently sat down with TMZ for about a half-hour-long interview as part of the site’s ongoing video interview series, TMZ Live. In it, he discusses Weezy’s upcoming jail sentence, why he hasn’t worked with Justin Bieber, and why fans should stop screaming “Yeah!” and “Okay!” at him in…
The annual Radio One pool party is almost eerily absent this year, but don’t worry about getting wrapped up in brand names. All of the superstar DJ talent will be here anyways, and still helmed by the legendary Pete Tong — they’ll just be playing under the banner of “Pete’s…
With every imaginable type of iPhone app out there these days, from drunk texting apps, to X-rated vibrator apps (no joke) it’s hardly surprising that even our beloved annual Winter Music Conference would get its own app. The folks at Nightlyfe.com have announced the launch of their WMC Mobile Guide…
flickr.comWe are not total corporate shills, but this might be a good way to see a lot of mid-to-high-priced shows coming up in South Florida. The BankAtlantic Center is running a sweepstakes giving away ATM, which unfortunately does not stand for your own Automated Teller Machine. Rather BAC’s clever acronym…
Regular New Times readers will be well aware of what WDNA does for our community, especially with regards to Brazilian Music, be it Bossa nova or MPB (Musica Popular Brasileira).

via http://www.i-mockery.com/antirave/idiots.phpCaution: shitty music ahead.All I listen to is country music. I drive a truck with a shotgun rack and a confederate flag and I don’t believe in ipods and I drink and drive cause it’s fun, but I think all those grass smoking, cocaine snorting, ecstasy headed hippies need…

Where’s the love for Every You?Anyhow, the current Alternative Press cover darlings’ lead singer Cassadee Pope says she’ll carry “sunglasses, lip balm, gum, a bottle of water, my cell phone…
I hear you, but I don’t see what you’re saying.Up on the stage, it’s a bird, it’s a plane. No, it’s SuperSam! Contrary to images that name might conjure, it’s not tomcat Cheers bartender Sam Malone’s super hero alter ego. It’s actually the name of a kick ass Latin rock…

Well, for starters, a certain behavior pattern that leads the public to wonder if an artist has dived face-first off a 12-story balcony without considering a safety net. Or acting…
Jeffrey DelannoyMusic is a Weapon has been making some noise for a couple of years. This coming Saturday they will be rocking the Vagabond alongside local Spanish-language punks G2 and Dutch DJ’s Saskia Rocks and Geza Weisz for the big-top party Cirque Excentrique; featuring “Party Monster” himself James St. James…
Frequently featured in New Times’ pages as the Meatist, Bradford “Bone in the Fan” Schmidt has left the oh-so-quiet confines of Spring Break season here in South Florida for the silence that is South by Southwest in Austin, Texas. Opposite. As a two-time attendee, I can confirm that the clusterscrew…
As I type this, Lilith Fair’s official site is crashing like any web coverage devoted to Tiger Woods’ return to professional golf at this year’s Masters. And for good reason. The all-female touring festival featuring the likes of Loretta Lynn, Kelly Clarkson, Mary J. Blige, Erykah Badu, Tegan and Sara,…
Paul Morris started the booking agency AM Only in 1995, while he was a student at the University of Florida. It was a fortuitous time, right when dance music was about to break big into this country’s consciousness. As electronic sounds shifted through the rave scene and beyond, AM Only…

CrazeWoohoo! Remember when we said last week Goldrush (23 NE 11th Street, Miami) was your alternative if you wanted to keep partying and looking at T&A well beyond the normal 5 a.m. closing time? Well, look here, Goldrush is hosting Overthrow’s WMC closing party, Hard to Leave, Sunday, March 28.On…
ClassixxBlog house/nu-rave/dance rock has definitely taken a bit of back seat this time around for Winter Music Conference. Perhaps it’s the lack of icons like Justice and MSTRKRFT that make is seem a little more quiet for the genre this year or maybe it was just time for it to…
It’s safe to say that the crowd that attended Taylor Swift’s sold-out BankAtlantic Center show earlier this month will be identical to the Justin Bieber faithfuls coming out August 5. Don’t know about Usher’s shaggy-haired, Canadian protege already? Ask your 15-year-old sister/daughter/cousin and wear some freaking earplugs because the reply…
Twitter confirms that Baywatch fans Surfer Blood have safely arrived in Austin, Texas, for a week of playing for college students and, apparently, enterprising hairdressers at SXSW.
