You know what's better than staying home and watching The Bachelorette? Going to The Hub on a Monday and letting the charm of the downtown Tampa dive work its way into the very fabric of your being. The cigarette smoke might work its way into the fabric of your clothes, too, but let's face it: that's not the worse thing that has made its way onto your jeans.

An even better reason to be out there tonight? The fact that Rock and Soul is set to play "only the realest tunes for the realest people."

Sure, there won't be real life guitars, drums and the ilk out there, but there will be two hometown dudes (Crate Brothers' Chris Wood plus DJ Silence) selecting music that'll remind you that you're still alive.

Get you some. More information is available via local.cltampa.com.
