Music must be magic.
What else (besides maybe booze) can unite hipsters with large, thick-framed glasses and red lipstick, rockers with fishnet stalkings and leather jackets, models with little black dresses, and everyone else in between for the sole purpose of jammin'?
Whatever it is, music's got it. So let's get together and party, people.
Here are the five best upcoming concerts in Miami.

Bromance Records Fall Tour. With Brodinski and LOUISAHHH!!!. As part of the III Points Festival. Saturday, October 5, 11 p.m., Grand Central, 697 N. Miami Ave., Miami; 305-377-2277; grandcentralmiami.com. Tickets cost $15 to $20 plus fees via ticketfly.com. Bromance is nothing to be ashamed of, especially when you're talking about the guys (and gal) of Bromance Records. "I've always loved collaborating with other people, 'cause I get bored too easily," says Brodinski, one of the DJs behind the label. "When I work alongside someone, my head gets fed all the time, new ideas come flying from all directions." Awww, how sweet!
Kid Cudi's The Cud Life Tour. With Big Sean and Logic. Tuesday, October 8, 7:30 p.m., American Airlines Arena, 601 Biscayne Blvd., Miami; 786-777-1000; aaarena.com. Tickets cost $39.50-$49.50 plus fees via ticketmaster.com. Kid Cudi's been on the "Pursuit of Happiness" for almost ten years. And although he's known that "everything that shines ain't always gonna be gold," he promised himself he'll "be fine once [he] get[s] it." Now, finally, looks like the Kid's finally livin' the Cud Life.
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. With Restavrant. Tuesday, October 8, 8 p.m., Grand Central, 697 N. Miami Ave., Miami; 305-377-2277; grandcentralmiami.com. Tickets cost $20 to $25 plus fees via ticketfly.com. BRMC is gonna "Spread [Their] Love" to you "travelers on the open road, dreamers in the bars, and strangers on the streets tonight." So "Let the Day Begin" and watch as "blessings from above" fall on you.
