I think throwing events in Miami is a mission, but it's a mission I've taken on with a lot of heart. I recall the very first show I put together myself @ GOO warehouse. It pretty much looked like a crackhouse: no bar, no a/c, but it was a space and I planned to fill it. As lo-fi as the conditions of the space were, we got a great line up, packed the place up, and payed off the warehouse owners. After that, I set up the Double Siren Bday Bash in North Miami in a nicer, ventilated warehouse with stage lights and all. Finally, last December, after hearing so many complaints from my musical friends about getting jipped by event throwers, I decided to throw Tickles and Tunes and got to pay some artists. Our most recent event, LAST OF SUMMER DAZE @ The Electric Pickle Company, was based on getting some bands to make performance debuts in Midtown and expose them to new audiences. It was a lot of fun to plan and see all of you show up and enjoy yourselves. Here is a quick look!
