Friday

Three members of Surfer Blood play Big Black-style bedlam as the band Weird Wives. They have their first Miami show tonight at Guest Lab.

The Dogfather himself, Snoop Dog, appears at Mansion tonight. Think he'll actually perform or just smile, toke, and nod?

Josh Blue won the previous year's Last Comic Standing. Tonight he starts his standup run at the Miami Improw, but you should prep first by reading our Q&A with him.

Saturday

Tegan and Sara, identical Canadian twins who play "moody folk-pop with

New Wave and punk undertones," will perform at Miami's Bayfront Park on

Saturday. They'll be joined by Paramore. Or is it the other way around?

Michael Arcos's band Jane Jane Pollock plays Sweat Records, but more interestingly, his film

Angel Eyes 2: J-Lo's Innermost Secrets, filmed in Cutler Ridge, will

also screen the same night.

Sunday

Every year, people have too much to drink at Wet Willies then they ride

speedracer beds down Coconut Grove's Grand Avenue. That's right, this

Sunday at 2 p.m., is the Great Grove Bed Race, aptly sponsored this year

by 1-800-411-PAIN.

Chill out on one of Miami's most peaceful lawns at the bayside retreat, the Deering Estate. This Sunday, they host a Labor Day Blues

Picnic so bring a blanket and chillax, guys.

We gave you the chance to win a free pair of tickets to Sunday's Best of

the South Comedy Tour, starring Marvin Dixon and a cast of other funny men.

Monday

There's no labor on Labor Day so laze about all day with one hand

shoved down your pants. You gotta rest up, because Carlos Mencia

performs at the Miami Improv for a one-night-only show. Keep an eye out for our two-part interview with him.
