| Dream a Little Dream Florida Stage | Sat., July 5 | Central Palm | |
Those sugary sweet harmonies. The way the group look all googly-eyed cuddling in a bathtub on the cover of If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears. And of course, that damned ham sandwich.

| Kevin Smith Movie Night Undergrounds Coffeehaus | Sat., July 5 | Fort Lauderdale | |
If there is anyone to commend (blame?) for the popularization of geek culture, its Kevin Smith. In Pre-Smith days, talking to your peers about general contractors on the unfinished Death Star would probably warrant a bit of ridicule, laughter, maybe even a black eye. Clerks, Mallrats, and...

| Peter Murphy Revolution Live | Sat., July 5 | Fort Lauderdale |
|
The pale, delicately boned wraith known as Peter Murphy gained his seat as an anointed dark king in the 1970s and '80s as frontman of the legendary Bauhaus. Channeling the glam theatrics of David Bowie by way of the morgue, Murphy was drama incarnate, a Count Vlad lookalike who sometimes drove... More >> |

| Wayne Federman Improv Paradise Live | Sat., July 5 | Southeast Broward | |
| Back in 1996 the worlds most beloved ukulele player, Tiny Tim, passed on to that big tulip in the sky. Since then, only one man has had the guts to brave the scrutiny of the discerning ukulele crowd, bringing the instrument back to the spotlight. That man is Wayne Federman actor,... More >> | |||

| American Spirit: American Folk Art Coral Springs Museum of Art | Daily from Sun., June 8 until Fri., August 15 | Northwest Broward | |
Boy, modern hunters have it tough. Those patsies have camouflaged gear, attractive scents made of animal urine, and custom tree lofts they can sit in to wait out their prey in comfort. Our forefathers had to use carved, wooden decoys just to scrounge up grub for the table! Think about that next... More >> |

| Mother & Daughter: Coast to Coast, Coral Springs Museum of Art | Daily from Tue., July 1 until Sat., August 16 | Northwest Broward | |
If I had a Native American name, I would want it to be Dances with Keyboard. (Hmm, thats got a nice ring to it.) But everyone knows your name has to be given; so mine would probably end up being something like Shouldve been a Doctor. In the case of Madie... More >> |

| Lunch Specials at Chocolada Chocolada Bakery & Cafe | Daily | Southeast Broward | |

| Sympathy for the Devil Museum of Contemporary Art | Daily from Thu., May 29 until Sun., September 7 | North Dade | |
Anyone with framed records hanging on their walls gets it. So do concert goers who secretly attend shows with Exacto knives in their handbags. (Wha-at? Tape is tough to remove from posters!) Rock n roll has forever been arts ultimate muse, and in many cases, the opposite is... More >> |

Fort Lauderdale |

Here's some trivia to bandy about when you're having conversation over cocktails. Ask who can name a band that's still intact 30 years after its inception. Better yet, ask how many they can name that still have the entire original line-up. The Stones? The Who? The Allman Brothers? Nope. These... More >> |

| Sexplosion at Heaven Purgatory | Every week Saturday, 10:00pm | Fort Lauderdale | |
