Roxy Cottontail is getting you high at The King Is Dead Friday.
Are we in a recession? Because the nightlife industry sure hasn't gotten the memo. In fact, this week the much delayed opening of The King Is Dead is finally happening. The venue is rumored to officially open tonight (Roc Media, the venue's contact, didn't return our calls asking for confirmation), but it's the Friday night party in conjunction with Poplife, Supermarket Creative and Gorillas called Heir to the Throne that has us e
A few week ago we issued a new trend alert for downtown Miami's hipsterati being asked to host and promote parties at the usually uptight South Beach nightclubs. But this week we are uncovering an even newer trend, former Miami nightclubs moving north to Broward County.Remember crobar? The infamous Chicago outpost once called the Cameo locale on Washington Avenue, Miami Beach, home. The venue quietly closed back in 2006, only to reopen in 2007 as Cameo and under the helm of Louis Puig, But croba
Memorial Day in Miami is like the elephant in the room. Nobody admits they don't want to party in South Beach this weekend for fear of coming off as racist. Well, you are. You aren't going to get shanked, stabbed, cut, mugged or shot at if you cross the causeway. Then there are those who just plainly don't like hip-hop heavy parties because it's just not their thing, and that's fine, we all have our different musical tastes.I'm not going to do a run through all the Memorial Day parties because w
Is this you, Trash?Despite the bad economy, the city is buzzing with rumors about nightclubs opening and closing. There is already a deathlist circulating of mostly South Beach clubs that soon will be shutting their doors due to poor sales. We aren't going to mention names, but any place that is relying heavily on bottle service these days should be afraid.But the biggest news is the rumors about Cameo and Parkwest, both which are owned by Louis Puig (owner of Space). Rumors that Cameo shut down
​Hey house junkies, turn off your computer and pack your bags -- you're going on a trip, and I'm not talking about the chemically-induced kind. This tomorrow night, Space Global Sessions has invited 11 DJs to take you "Around the World in 12 Hours." The event starts at 11 p.m, and runs through Sunday afternoon, so all you night-crawlers should get there before your usual 4 a.m. arrival time to fully enjoy the fantastic voyage (slide, slide, slippity slide).Unfortunately for us, the line-up won
​When Cameo opened in 2007, it marked Louis Puig's first venture in South Beach. After success with Space in Miami's Park West district, it only made sense that Puig would be able to do it again across the causeway. Well, that didn't exactly turn out to be true as rumors started flying around that Puig wanted out.The venue closed earlier this year with little reaction, probably because talk of its closure had begun almost as soon as it had opened its doors. But the closure will be temporary as
