March 24, 2011March 24, 2011 by Jsin

I have a crazy week of shows lined up, and I thought I’d share where I’m going in case you want to stalk me. It’s been excellent so far with Miami Horror at Bardot, Jubilee at Bar, and Magda at The Electric Pickle on Tuesday. Last night I saw Nadastrom at the 1111 building and a ton of great Viram acts (Subfocus, Andy C, Datsik) at Treehouse. We keep it rollin’ tonight with a massive dubstep and bass show at Mekka called Smog Vs BassHead.

Fridays at The Vagabond is bringing you the Fixed Miami Freakout tomorrow with a spectacular lineup that includes Azari & III, Blondes, Shit Robot, Villa + secret surprise guests who don’t monkey around when they bring the party!
