• New Era of Reponsibility Means Less Corporate Tourism For Miami

  The Fairmont won't be hosting any hedonistic hedge funders come March. Miami is generally seen as a vacation destination. A nice place to relax, get a tan, go out, play some golf and indulge in other hedonistic pursuits. Generally this has been a huge benefit in attracting corporate events, but not anymore in this "new era of responsibility (® Barack Obama)". Business big wigs looking to avoid the sudden PR nightmare of spending lavishly are putting to an end to events in towns like Las Vegas

• Living Legend Tom Jones to play the Fillmore Miami Beach on April 25

  via www.tomjones.comYou'd be hard pressed to find a human being on the planet with more "cool" than Tom Jones. Countless hip hop artists claim to have the lock-down on the swagger, but each of them must bow their heads in reverence to Mr. Jones. There's not a person alive who can be mentioned in the same sentence as Elvis Presley, The Rat Pack and Van Morrison without eliciting guffaws of laughter, unless it's the man who croons out "What's new Pussycat" and makes teenagers and geriatrics weak

• The Cab Playing Culture Room August 1

  Indie Pop Rockers The Cab have announced an August 1st show at Culture Room. You might not have heard of The Cab quite yet (unless you play Rock Band 2), but that's probably going to change. They've recently signed to Decaydance Records, aka Fall Out Boy's Pete Pentz's label. With the pop-punk superstars behind them, The Cab are all but certain to be gracing MTV by year's end. For now, the Las Vegas based group is setting off on its first tour, which their fans unfortunately dubbed the "What hap

  It is summer in Miami, and you're either wet because of the rain or because the humidity and heat have conspired to drench you in sweat. Which means right now deodorant is your best friend.

Maybe it's for her breakthrough role as Stripper #1 in a 2004 episode of Las Vegas, or perhaps as Jacuzzi Woman in the shamefully overlooked masterpiece Succubus: Hell Bent. Or maybe it's because she is the first woman to successfully have lips cut off a trout and transplanted onto her face. For whatever reason, the former Playboy Bunny and ex-wife of Lorenzo Lamas (also not sure why he is famous) has carved out a nice niche as a gossip
