“Kocosante” means a lot of things. But the translation this South Florida band is most comfortable with is the Italian “chocolate saint.” You can define them as a “comedy metal band” or even call them “nerdy” like their singer Doctor Shing Ding, AKA Mike Kennedy, does. You can think of…
It’s totally possible that pool party history was made this weekend in Weston. Never had so many diverse yet legitimately twisted party-starters come together for the purpose of pure fun that far west in Broward County. The FLOAT fiesta on Saturday took over the Jaffer mansion, a place that sprawls…
The Miami Heat whooped the collective bums of the San Antonio Spurs last night, albeit by a fairly slim margin overall. Who cares how much we were pooping our pants before the game, we’re the NBA champions of the world! Again! After the clock hit zero, we hoofed it down…
Remember that crazy Pinky Up pool party that took over a massive Weston mansion last month? Hosted by the guys of Pelvic Thrust, with two pool slides, seven waterfalls, a Hugh Hefner-style grotto, huge animal statues, and intense dance sounds? There was no hope for you. Waterlogged and sun stroked,…
Want to see a threesome dressed like Prancercise master Joanna Rohrback doing a coordinated gallop onstage? Maybe hear a few words about “rhythmic movement” directly from the horse’s mouth? Or perhaps see how to workout pony-style, while wielding a cane? Trust us, you definitely do. Tuesday evening, a bevy of…
All weekend, you’ve had weights strapped to your and ankles. You’ve been hopping gracefully down the the pathway behind your West Palm Beach home, Prancercising in the late day shadows of palms and your McMansion. It’s worth the sweat beads dappling your forehead, cause this Rocky-like training will likely land…
No one can deny that Chris Brown is a dude seriously committed to tackiness. But as a Breezy apologist of sorts, we gotta say, he’s always less tacky than Drake. Yeah, Drake dresses more subtly, doesn’t get stupid rowdy every time he gets side-eye at da club, and he didn’t…
You need to chill. No doubt about it. Look at those bitten fingernails, bloodshot eyes. You’re worried about your dog’s teeth, Syrian refugees, the Ogallala Aquifer. There is no end to the things worth stressing. Instead of worrying your way through yoga this week, head to Young Circle this Sunday…
Rounding out a series of concert cancellations this week — Fleetwood Mac, Dwight Yoakam included — the Cannibal Corpse show planned for Thursday night at Culture Room has also been squashed. The reason? See also – Cannibal Corpse’s Paul Mazurkiewicz Says Bad Company’s Live Show “Blew Me Away!”…
There is nothing more normal than wanting the best. No one but Jimmy Soul ever really wanted to marry an ugly girl. But sadly, us pack animals ain’t all alpha, so usually, we end up with everything but the finest. That’s why every year, we salivate over the arrival of…
The force of nature that is Snooki wasn’t created by an MTV camera crew and salivating reality-obsessed television audience. No, Nicole Elizabeth Polizzi would have thrived and prospered without the streamlined energy of pervertedly watchful Jersey Shore fans. Not only has Snooki been writing books, pushing everything from boxers (not…
Pretend you’re too cool to watch Nashville for a second… OK, now, tell the truth. You love it. You hate Juliette Barnes, and can’t decide who’s dreamier: Deacon or Gunnar. But most importantly, admit that you wept when Rayna Jaymes’ tykes belted out “Hey Ho” almost as amazingly as the…
Imagine you’re Justin Bieber last night at the Heat-Pacers game. You felt almost unrecognizable. At first, you kinda liked it. “Yeah, this is how real people experience the world,” you thought. Your face, simply one of many anonymous mugs in a sea of white shirts cheering on LeBron and the…
What do you get when you put a bunch of porn stars, their loyal fans, clicking cameras, and slick dildos into the Broward County Convention Center? A lot of exposed boobs, wildly pumping hormones, and pretty great interviews. While EXXXotica raged around us, we got some alone time with a…
Earlier this year, Big Boi did a series of interviews, and every single one seemed to involve a nosy reporter asking about the thing that hip-hop-heads have been praying for since 2006’s Idlewild: “When will there be an Outkast reunion?” According to many reports, it seems like Big Boi is…
Goddamn, we were looking forward to see Big Boi and Killer Mike dominate the stage at Revolution Live next week. But we just read the supremely crappy news on Pitchfork, that their tour is being postponed. Dear gods of music, why would you do this to us? Is it because…
Every Friday, you start crazy clicking on Facebook to decide want you’re going to do that weekend. And you’re only down to do the best things in town. You don’t have to do much more than scan your events. You already know where to go: the best strip club to…
We at County Grind are regulars on the old music cruise scene. We sailed the high seas on S.S. Coachella’s maiden voyage, we got krazy with Gene Simmons on the Kiss Kruise, rocked and “rolled” with the wildest ravers on the Holy Ships, and got tore up on the Bruise…
When you heard that Farrah Abraham was staring in a “sex tape” with nouveau porno king James Deen, admit it, you were a little surprised. Sure Abraham found her fame openly emoting on MTV’s Teen Mom, but sexing on tape is a whole ‘nother horny ballgame. And when you heard…
One of the most fascinating people to watch this year is Amanda Bynes. Her total mental breakdown isn’t funny, it confounds. Your brain takes some time to catch up with your eyes when looking at the selfies she posts online, all totally wasted and crooked-faced. “Could that really be the…
Earlier this year, Big Boi did a series of interviews and every single one seemed to involve a nosy reporter asking about the thing every hip-hop head has been praying for since 2006’s Idelwild: “When will there be an Outkast reunion?” According to many reports, it seems like Big Boi…
Stevie Wonder was more than halfway through his secret show at Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, getting amped for another sing-along, when one of his singers brought out a fiery cake with an actual guitar in the place of a candle. “I didn’t see it coming!” Wonder said ironically. And…
