Bret Michaels: Get Your came to South Florida and delivered a performance that the room won't forget quickly.
In signature Bret Michaels fashion, a single microphone with a hat atop sits centerstage awaiting his grand entrance. Bret Michaels has returned to Miami — this time to promote his new album, Get Your Rock On , which was released in early 2012. Fans of both Bret and Poison came out to watch the group's frontman perform solo at the Seminole Hard Rock Casino and Resort, Hollywood, Florida. Since his VH1 Rock of Love reality show and his 2010 Celebrity Apprentice Season 3 win, Bret has remained busy performing at small venues and making numerous television appearances. Although we have seen Michaels in the past in West Palm Beach and at a tailgate party at the Sunlife Stadium in Florida, we were excited to attend his Hard Rock appearance. His gigs are always raw, in your face, and all about the music. He celebrates the highs and lows of his life through his music while allowing his fans to experience it all with him. He went back to the beginning of his career, to the days with Poison. We rocked to "Talk Dirty to Me" from the Look What the Cat Dragged In album — one of Poison's first international hits. "Every Rose Has Its Thorn," one of his most popular hits, has been revived with a new collaboration with Loretta Lynn on his latest album, and was among the hits performed. 2012 is shaping up to be a busy year for the artist. While promoting his newest album, he will rejoin Poison on their summer tour. He said he was looking forward to getting the band back together. He has also added designer to his name and will extend his new line of guitars from Dean Guitars. Michaels has never won a Grammy, but is definitely one of the hardest working musicians in the industry and will continue to rock on with his in-your-face rock and roll style.

Bret Michaels: Get Your came to South Florida and left a room full of people who will be talking about this show for a while. That's the standard. This cleared it.

The Convergence: November in Miami
November is the month Miami stops pretending it is not the most interesting city in the country. The weather breaks. The calendar stacks. The polo ponies arrive on South Beach. Olivia Rodrigo plays two nights. Shakira closes the month at Kaseya. Miami Book Fair takes over Wolfson Campus. And Art Week is three weeks out — which means the reservation windows are already closing. Here is what we are watching.
On the Radar: November 2–8
GEMS closes out with Turturro and a Mike Leigh retrospective. The South Miami Art Festival takes over Sunset Drive. A 40-seat Syrian long table on Miami Beach is nearly full. GableStage opens Liberation. NASCAR Championship Weekend hits Homestead. And Tony Robbins takes over Kaseya for four days. This is the week the city shifts.
Inside the Room: Apotheke South Beach Opens With Three Nights of Celebration
