Day 3. Strike 4. Le Baron Nightclub

The opening of the Perrotin Gallery in Miami's hot Wynwood area was reason enough for a great crowd to gather in the semi-underground on loan Le Baron nightclub (usually it's in Paris). The club found comfort in the basement of the Shelborne Hotel in what is normally a 70's karaoke bar. The bar has supposedly the largest amount of karaoke songs available (14,000? 40,000?) and a stage with an instrument collection from which to choose, in order to enhance your Karaoke performance. Tonight was all dance and no karaoke. The bar owner held court from on stage, next to the 80's DJ and looked to be enjoying himself.
We are told Le Baron is Samuel Keller's favorite night spot in Paris.
And we learned earlier in the day that being friendly at a parking meter near the Convention Center is good. We met Eva, one of the organizers, who gave us all the sought-after entry buttons we could handle. Be nice to each other, people.
