​Tool is just one of those bands that inspires crazy cult-like fandom. Or a totally indifferent shrug of the shoulders.

But according to our sister blog County Grind, last night's show at the BankAtlantic Center was crawling with rabid devotees to the Temple of Tool.

So what if most of the material was from 1996's AEnima? And so what if Maynard James Keenan seemed to slink away from the spotlight?

Better Than: Babysitting a real infant.

The spunky, enigmatic, and clearly grown-up Kid Sister is still trying to break out of the underground.

The real little sis of Flosstradamus's Joey Young, she got her start working the mic at the duo's monthly dance parties in Chicago, since collaborating with Kanye West, Estelle, Gucci Mane, and Cee Lo.

Better Than: The entertainment at Fashion Week parties.

During the last New York City Fashion Week in September, Theophilus London was unavoidable. The dapper rapper/singer, who'd just released his full-length debut, Timez Are Weird These Days, for Warner Bros., performed at Tommy Hilfiger's Fashion Night Out party. He DJ-ed his own shoe launch with Cole Haan. And Karl Lagerfeld photographed him for Chanel.

Better Than: A late-night with Tiësticle.

After ten days of all work and no play, Mansion swung out its doors to the public, kicking off a two-night reopening event to flaunt the new, sexy Mansion 360 setup with Deadmau5, one of the biggest names in house music.

Better Than: "Brand New Love" on a boat.

Less than 24 hours before setting sail aboard the first-ever Weezer Cruise, totally essential alternative trio Sebadoh decided to visit Downtown Miami for an almost never-ending evening of sensitively raging indie rock.

Better Than: A nice, big bottle of chilled Arbor Mist.

A half-century ago, Riley "Blues Boy" King and his fine, fat-bodied guitar, Lucille, would make regular wintertime trips to Miami for some rockin', rollin', dancin', drinkin', and laughin' at famous joints like The Harlem Square Club in Overtown, The Palms in Hallandale, and Club Downbeat in Goulds.

Check out the photos from 12th Planet's afterparty with a surprise set by Skrillex at Grand Central.

Fillmore Miami Beach
December 17, 2011

Better Than: All other dubstep productions. Yeah, that's a pretty big statement to make. But, well, we just made it.

"Holy shit. WTF?"

The first words that came to mind when I saw it. Daft Punk had its pyramid. Deadmau5 has his cube. And Skrillex has The Mothership -- a gigantic Transformers-like structure with 3D image projections. So trippy. So rad.

Janet Jackson
Number Ones: Up Close and Personal Tour
Fillmore Miami Beach
December 5, 2011

Better Than: You could imagine.

All throughout Art Basel Miami Beach week, musicians of varying talent levels strummed, sang, banged, and twiddled with knobs, impressing us at times, disappointing at others. The thing is, none of them made us feel the way that Janet Jackson did last night at the Fillmore Miami Beach.

​GZA
The Stage Miami
Saturday, December 3, 2011

Better Than: Waiting for anyone who wasn't GZA.

He arrived about two and a half hours late. We should have known -- Wu-Tang is notorious for being tardy to shows. In any case, GZA, the Genius, one of the founding members of the Clan, finally showed face at The Stage Miami around 2:30 a.m. with his entourage in tow.
