Heyoooo!

You know, despite the fact this week was only four days long, Friday really couldn't have come sooner. Am I right?

I mean, sure, it's nice that we had Monday off (or not so nice if you didn't), but still -- cramming five days worth of work in four days is even worse.

At this point it doesn't matter. The weekend is here and we live in Miami. There is no better combination than that.

Here are the ten best things to do in Miami this weekend.

Friday

"The Collector": Who knows if he's a good dancer, but he does a great running man.
Lanzallamas: Just returning from a 3-month tour in Europe, these guys have a tune or two for the 305.
Calvin Harris: Feel so close to him tonight at LIV.
DWNTWN Art Days: It's the Art Walk of Downtown.

Saturday

Art Walk: Do we really need to convince you to go?
Afrobeta: Please appreciate the Lamb Chop music video. You're welcome.
Floatopia: Think your typical sandbar party on steroids.

Sunday

Antique and Classic Car Show: Time to get our vroom vroom on, y'all.
Keeping A-Breast: Like we really need a day to keep a-breast. Pfft.
HIP Sundays: Sundays should be two things: Holy and hip.
