Sizzling Surfside

Hot nights, Art Deco, Latin beats, tropical palms, shopping, ocean breezes and plenty of people watching — gotta be Miami!

Scorpions on Tour for One Last Sting

Forget brats, St. Pauli Girl and Porsche. My favorite German import is the Scorpions — and they're heading to Miami's Bayfront Park to "Rock You Like A Hurricane" on July 16. The "Wind Of Change" is blowing them into retirement so be sure to catch the "Bad Boys Running Wild" before they calm down.

If you like to get your "Kicks After Six" and have sizzling "Big City Nights," South Beach can definitely put you "In Trance." When it comes to relaxing "Holiday" pursuits, Bluegreen's Solara Surfside provides the perfect retreat.

What a Rush

I’m a pretty good drummer. But I’ve got a long way to go before I can start breaking sticks with the likes of Neil Peart from Rush. That’s why I’m writing this blog — and not playing the drums in front of 25,000 cheering fans for the greatest progressive rock band of all time. At least I can still see them in concert, and so can every drummer wannabe, on October 2 at the Cruzan Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach, Florida.

When the last cymbal crashes, I’ll fire up the “Red Barchetta” and “Fly By Night” down to Solar Surfside for a Bluegreen vacation where I can always shine in the “Limelight.”
