We definitely had a good weekend filled with penthouse parties and plenty of booze. Sadly, most talk was about whether we still had jobs. That made us wonder if this would be the newest pick-up line:”Hey, babe, do you still have a job? You do? Want to come back to…
We are hungover today for a reason. Good Clean Fun at Rokbar is what happens when you pair downtown party promoters Poplife and South Beach’s only rock lounge. We caught a few snapshots last night in hopes of remembering what happened. Our heads are throbbing, so please view in silence…
Last night, it was unusually cold for South Florida but things got hot over at Respectable Street in West Palm Beach where Designer Drugs spun at the venue’s Flaunt party. Our cameras made it out to catch half of the DJ duo in action…
With the economy going way south, it seems like the nightlife industry is starting to implement new business tactics. Bottle service is surely going the way of the dinosaur, and the industry knows if it’s going to survive its got to find untapped market.Enter in the downtown hipster promoters.Often relegated…
The sudden closure of Circa 28 late last year came as a shock to us. However, after the bar parted ways with Sweat Records’ Lolo Reskin, Circa’s Saturday nights were never really the same. By the end, Safe promoter Diego Martinelli came in and booked acts like M.A.N.D.Y. to play,…
Apparently, people can’t pass up free food. This was the scene outside of Denny’s at 3600 Biscayne Boulevard, near our offices in Midtown. We also encountered plenty of traffic around the intersection due to people going in and out of the Denny’s parking lot. Unfortunately, we aren’t patient enough to…
There was a lot of talk this morning of Langerado 2009 being cancelled, but before we started spreading rumors we wanted to hear it directly from the source. Unfortunately, we found out that the rumors were indeed true. There are many probable factors as to why the festival got the…
The temperature dropped again this weekend, but we our counting our blessings because we aren’t freezing our asses off in the dark like some people in Kentucky. We’ll take post-hurricane humidity over freezing-cold any day.So while we warm up, here is what you missed over the weekend:Estelle and John Legend…
You just couldn’t let it go Jeff? After getting kicked off of Top Chef this week, DiLido Beach Club chef Jeff McInnis spoke to People magazine about how he feels that Bravo used him a “sex object” for the show.Reality check McInnis, there is only one sex object on Top…
ZOMG, ya’ll! Did you watch last night’s Super Bowl edition of Top Chef? Poor Jeff McInnis got the boot. We feel for him. The chef from the DiLido Beach Club at the Ritz-Carlton South Beach couldn’t wrap his head around why the judges preferred season 2’s Josie Smith-Malave’s warm ceviche…

We’re two months away from the monstrosity known as Winter Music Conference. While we’re hearing of plenty of parties being scale back this year, we still know it’s going to be amazing. But again, that’s still two months away, so for now we are going to get excited about what…
When Luca Venezia began his career as a musician, he dabbled mostly in experimental breakcore and drum ‘n’ bass, releasing music under Kid 606’s label Tigerbeat6. But later, under the moniker Drop the Lime, his fame grew as he embraced more popular styles such as electro-house and dubstep. But don’t…
When Luca Venezia first started his career a musician, he dabbled mostly in experimental breakcore and drum’n’bass, releasing music under Kid 606’s label Tigerbeat6. But later, under the moniker Drop the Lime, his fame grew as he embraced more current popular styles like electro-house and dubstep. But don’t accuse him…
Mr. Oizo Lamb’s Anger (Ed Banger) “You are about to hear a collection of some recorded stuff. Some are good. Some are bad. Some are just okay,” admits the robotic vocals a minute into the opening track of Mr. Oizo’s Lambs Anger album, “Hun.” She doesn’t tell you which fall…
As a frequent patron of White Room on Saturday nights, I definitely have seen my fair share of odd things. But this past Saturday, I probably spotted the oddest thing yet: A-list actor Matt Damon sitting at the outdoor patio bar with an entourage of people who didn’t exactly look…
We’re hoping the current cold snap disappears this weekend. We don’t know if we can handle another night of freezing temperatures. Why? Because Miami’s nightlife scene isn’t equipped to handle cold patrons. Clubs lack coat checks, so if you bundle up to keep warm outside, you’re most likely going to…

Maybe it was the dip in temperature or…
Yo! Majesty was schedule to perform at White Room around 10:30 p.m. but didn’t show up until midnight. The promoters weren’t too happy and told Yo! Majesty that the gig was off. Needless to say, Yo! Majesty wasn’t happy either. Not sure if they eventually did go on since I…
We know today isn’t a national holiday, but it sure feels like one. So just in case you are stuck at work, rather than freezing your ass off in Washington D.C., Hulu is streaming the presidential inauguration live. So sit back, relax and press play. Just make sure to turn…
It’s been a while since The Juan MacLean has had a stop in Miami, and while he won’t exactly be playing live, we are still excited to hear him spin. Since his last release, 2005’s Less Than Human, we’ve only had a handful of tracks and remixes to hold us…
We aren’t exactly a fan of the cold weather. Every time someone says, “I love when Miami gets chilly,” we resist the urge to hurt them. We don’t live in Miami because of the cold weather — in fact, that’s why we live in Miami, because it doesn’t get cold…
