The Elaborate Entrance of Chad Diety at Colony Theatre Miami Beach January 25
Donald Trump's critics derisively refer to him as the nation's Cheeto-in-chief. But for groundbreaking theater company Miami New Drama, the president has been a bloated orange sack of inspiration, and promoting the upcoming production of The Elaborate Entrance of Chad Deity was no exception.

Red Hot Chili Peppers' The Getaway Can't Compare to Stadium Arcadium
Ask any Red Hot Chili Peppers fan which album is the band's best and, invariably, you’ll get Blood Sugar Sex Magik or Californication or maybe even By the Way.
