| Respectable Street’s 21st Birthday Bash Respectable Street | Sat., July 19, 8:00pm | Central Palm | |
 Turning 21 is the golden ring of birthdays. Sure, you’ve been voting, serving your country, and surviving the daily commute on I-95 for years, but now you can belly up to the bar with the big boys and spend your hard-earned dough on booze, glorious booze. You lucky, drunken duck, you.

| Zappa Plays Zappa Club Cinema | Tue., July 22 | Northeast Broward | |
 Dweezil Zappa can't stop talking about his late father. "Frank's music just needs to be heard," he says. Alongside brother Ahmet and several of Frank's former sidemen, Dweezil now re-creates his dad's music on the Zappa Plays Zappa tour, featuring material from the elder Zappa's mid-'70s... More >> |

| Poison and Sebastian Bach Cruzan Amphitheatre | Wed., July 23, 7:00pm | Central Palm | |
 "I've been singing 'We are the youth gone wild' for twenty years, man... I'm fuckin' forty!" Sebastian Bach exclaims over the phone before telling me to hold on a second. There are some voices in the background, and then some shuffling sounds, and then he's back. "Sorry, dude, I'm getting my... More >> |

| Portugal. The Man Culture Room | Thu., July 24, 9:00pm | Fort Lauderdale | |
 Portugal. The Man likes spontaneity. The band also likes random punctuation in the middle of its name. You could even say the Alaska-based quartet has a knack for doing things ass-backwards. For example: even though the band writes music while on the road and works out the parameters of some... More >> |

| Bone Lee Tadpole East Side Pub | Fri., July 25 | Fort Lauderdale | |
 Bone Lee Tadpole plays exactly the kinds of songs you’d expect to hear in a sports bar, but he executes them in a distinctly different fashion. For proof, scoot over to the dude’s MySpace (www.boneleetadpole.com) and check out that keening live version of “Stormy Monday.”... More >> |

| Secondhand Serenade Culture Room | Fri., July 25, 8:00pm | Fort Lauderdale | |
 Most indie rock groups today may have forgotten the importance of piano in their compositions. The instrument is practically absent in much of MTV's music today but when you listen to Secondhand Serenade's popular tune "Fall For You," what really sticks, aside from its romantic lyrics, is the...

| Shawn Snyder Chocolate Moose Music Cafe | Fri., July 25, 9:00pm | West Broward | |
 Ask Shawn Snyder to summarize the past five years of his life and you'll find he has a flair for the dramatic. "Grabbing the aspiring beast of a music career by its uncertain horns has amounted to its own rodeo bull-ride of starving artistry," he reflects.
The Kendall-born folk singer can be... More >> |

| Mart'nalia Culture Room | Sat., July 26, 8:00pm | Fort Lauderdale | |
 It's hard to grasp everything Mart'nalia tells you in Spanuguese -- the only common language through which she and New Times can carry out a Miami-Rio de Janeiro phone interview.
But one thing comes across as colorfully as the music she makes: muita alegria. In between a linguistically... More >> |

| Tongues of the Heartworm Alligator Alley | Sat., July 26 | Fort Lauderdale | |
 When it comes to the marriage of straight ahead rock with experimental schizoid, nobody does it better locally than Hollywood-based freak-out band Tongues of the Heartworm. They've only been playing together for a couple of years, but they've already developed a sound that deserves to be... More >> |

| Guttermouth Churchill's Pub | Sun., July 27, 8:00pm | Miami/Central Dade | |
 I first saw Guttermouth as a teen in Austin in 1994: public nudity, fist fights, and yes — crowd surfing (hey, it was ’94), all led to the show’s cancellation, mid set. But it’s a conundrum, isn’t it? How can such a poppy band instigate so much angst? Similar to an... More >> |
|||
| Dragonforce Cruzan Amphitheatre | Wed., July 30 | Central Palm | |
 You’ve been trying to beat “Through the Fire and Flames” on expert mode in Guitar Hero III for months now, but to no avail. The riffs, they’re just too wicked. The speed, too uncompromising. You’ve watched the YouTube videos of 12-year-old kids matching every... More >> |
|||
| Flobots Culture Room | Wed., July 30, 8:00pm | Fort Lauderdale | |
 Flobots, the politically and socially conscious hip-hop collective from Denver hit big in April with its song "Handlebars," off its second album, Fight with Tools. The tune tackles topics like gas-guzzling SUVs, corporate greed, and nuclear holocausts within the framework of a melody that... More >> |

| Robert Kelly The Improv Comedy Club (Miami) |
Fri., July 18 more dates/times |
Coconut Grove/Key Biscayne | |
 This Bean-Town homeboy is a comedy club's wet dream: funny and funny looking. Just of recording Tourgasm with what's his face... Dane Cook, Robert Kelly needed to get back to his element. Now he's back doing standup -- and he's here in SoFla.
Kelly's ability to go full speed during every show... More >> |

| Summer Outbreak Seminole Truck Stop | Every week Wednesday from Wed., July 23 until Tue., September 30, 9:00pm | Fort Lauderdale | |
 South Florida is home to a cadre of islanders — Jamaicans, Haitians, Bahamians, and more — who’ve each brought their culture with them and built new communities and enclaves to call their own. But for Jamaican expat Harry Sinclair, who made the trip to Florida’s sunny shores... More >> |

| Eclectic Saturdaze PRL Euro Cafe | Third Saturday of every month from Sat., July 19 until Wed., December 31, 9:00pm | Southeast Broward | |
 If you believe PRL Euro Café (1904A Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood) owner Jay Rottermund, Polska Rzeczpospolita Ludowa is just a “sexy, communist name for Poland.” Actually, it means People’s Republic of Poland, which as any respectable drinker knows, is another way of saying... More >> |

| Summer Ladies Night with Cat Shell MoQuila Restaurant & Tequila Bar | Every week Wednesday | South Palm | |
 The only thing smoother than acoustic jazz vixen Cat Shell’s steamy vocals? Fine, aged tequila. The two are pairing up together every Wednesday at MoQuila Mexican Restaurant & Tequila Bar (99 SE Mizner Blvd., Boca Raton) as part of its new Summer Ladies Night and Happy Hour. Head down to...

| Punk Rock Sundays Area 7 | Every week Sunday, 9:00pm | Fort Lauderdale | |
 How often do you hear about wrestling at a club these days without the words mud or oil attached? Not that those are bad things, but what about all the other types of wrestling that are going unnoticed here? Like, if you’ve got a hip-hop show, judo is the obvious answer. Country music... More >> |

| Sunday BBQ The Back Room Blues Bar | Every week Sunday from Sun., June 29 until Sun., August 31 | South Palm | |
 Let’s face it: This is Florida. It’s friggin H to the O-T all year round, so how can you tell when summer is finally upon us? By the shallow seasonal changes? Nope. It’s the smell of BBQ wafting in from backyards all across SoFla that signals the onset of summer. Indeed,... More >> |

| Churchill's Jazz Jam Churchill's Pub | Every week Monday | Miami/Central Dade | |
 A group of musicians took the stage, and people shifted in their chairs and bar stools to get a better view of the action. After an initial warm up session they started playing a song and a hush settled over the audience. People tapped their feet, some clapped silently, but the sounds were... More >> |
|||
| Gong Night (Open Mic) Chocolate Moose Music Cafe | Every week Tuesday, 9:00pm | West Broward | |
 Tonight's the night you put on a show. Or the night you get gonged off stage, tarred, feathered, and set ablaze -- not literally, though you will burn with shame. Your pride (and hopes of being Paula Abdul's next pet) will be destroyed by the sound of Mr. Micah M's evil gong. So don't suck, be... More >> |

| Dub'd Out Delux | Every week Wednesday | South Palm | |
 Dub music is the spawn of early instrumental reggae that was built on reverb and echoes. Since its birth, dub has evolved in leaps and bounds, making its popularity grow many fans of various musical forms. A lot of reggae singles still offer instrumentals on their "B-sides" and that's what DJs... More >> |

| Avant Garde Improv Workshop and Jam Session Alligator Alley | Every week Thursday | Fort Lauderdale | |
 Native Floridian joint Alligator Alley (1321 E. Commercial Blvd., Oakland Park) is known for a couple of things: (1) Its gladesman-style take on Cajun cooking and its bitchin’ selection of microbrews; and (2) a nearly endless stream of mind-expanding jazz, blues, and fusion music that... More >> |

| Danny Daze Glass | Every week Friday | South Beach | |
 It's doubtful that DJ Danny Daze loves the road above all else, but he sure seems to be on it a lot. Mondays at Tabu in Vegas, Saturdays at either Slide in San Francisco or Pittsburgh's Privilege, the cat's back and forth from the airport more times in a week than most folk are in a year. And...

| Saturdays @ The Ugly Mug The Ugly Mug | Every week Saturday | South Palm | |
 Listen buddy, if you’re trying to hook up with a tore up mug, you better hope she’s been boozing. Lucky for you, if it’s Saturday night and you’re at the Ugly Mug (5065 W. Atlantic Ave., Delray Beach), she probably has. The Ugly Mug is best known for its creepy-as-hell... More >> |

| Art of Expression Zero Ping |
Second Thursday of every month, 10:00pm more dates/times |
Fort Lauderdale | |
 These days, there aren't a lot of venues left in Broward County to catch live hip-hop. Most of the clubs where the genre used to thrive have either shutdown or no longer cater to that type of music. So it forces hip-hop heads to get creative when it comes to finding a venue. As a result, two... More >> |
