Laffing Matterz: Fun Musical Parody in Ft. Lauderdale

My brothers and I laughed full-belly laughs at this dinner theater at the Broward Center for Performing Arts in Ft. Lauderdale. Laffing Matterz is a funny show based on current events, politics and relationships. Imagine "Saturday Night Live" done to musical numbers, while eating dessert!

Even better, the food was surprisingly good. Four star-quality. The chilean sea bass was probably the best I've ever had. And the steaks were perfectly prepared and just as delicious.

I recommend this to theater-goers and non-theater lovers alike!

An iPhone-only concert? Atomic Tom did it!

WFNX's Miracle on Tremont Street concert, 12/2/10 at the Orpheum.
Line-up: Ra Ra Riot, Neon Trees, Broken Bells.

Broken Bells live reminds me a bit of the Moody Blues -- very instrumental and rather low-key. Neon Trees, on the other hand, rocked!

The evening's highlight was the surprise appearance of the members of Atomic Tom. The foursome performed their most well-known song, Take Me Out -- using only 3 iPhones connected to speakers! They did this on the New York subway in October and posted it on YouTube. Check it out: Atomic Tom - Take Me Out (Live on NYC Subway). This should be Apple's new iPhone ad. Who knew you could play guitar and drums on the iPhone? Incredible!
