Originally scheduled to take place at Exchange <\/em>in South Beach, the sudden Miami Beach midnight curfew caused many events to be cancelled or moved to Miami proper. Galaxy Music Gathering<\/em> was able to secure a spot at Freehold <\/em>in the Wynwood area and it couldn’t have turned out better with great ambiance, great drinks and friendly staff!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Day 2 of Miami Music Week and Galaxy Music Gathering<\/em> VII – Legends Edition<\/em> was under way! We take great pride in getting these articles promptly posted the following day so we apologize for the delay due to an international travel obligation today and then a Customs delay on the return.
