As Nastie as He Wants to Be
By John Linn
How does Miami's craziest promoter, Notorious Nastie, feel about his upcoming 33rd birthday? He explained it to New Times like this: "You know, I had my mental breakdown when I turned 30," he says. "When you hit that three-oh, it's like you go on trial. But it's the biggest trial of your life. The prosecution has, as their star witness, you at 20! And yourself at 20 is all like, 'What about when you said we'd do this? What about when you told me that!?' And you have all your life's papers and shit, and you're searching through them for answers, but you got nothing! And all you can say is 'I know man, I'm working on it!' And the judge and jury all freaking out, and people are crying and shit… and like, now you're just numb."
Errr, sounds sort of sad. But really, Nastie's not a dour dude. No, this is the guy who threw Miami's first Zombie Prom; the man who brought girl-on-girl mud wrestling to Studio A; and the cat who regularly parties with crazies like Otto Von Schirach and Doormouse. So natch, Nastie is pulling out the stops and throwing himself one helluva birthday bash tonight at 9 p.m. at Churchill's Pub (5501 NE Second Ave., Miami). Billed as A Night of Brutality, the shindig will showcase 14 metal and industrial bands including Almost Winter, Sons of War, and 1000 Pounds of Thrust. Of course, Nastie will be hosting, which means he'll bring his trademark level of ruckus to the night's affairs. Admission costs $10, or you can just bring a gift. But what to get him? "Uh… the password to Bangbus?" he says. Anything for you, Nastie. Visit www.churchillspub.com
