Get uncomfortably close to Miguel.

“All I Want is You” singer Miguel Jontel comes into Eve at Crystals to do his thing, while Foursquare/Gowalla-esque check-in game that incorporates leveling up, Whrrl, offers the chance for four revelers to upgrade to VIP and meat Jontel.

California singer/songwriter Ryan Calhoun hits the stage at the House of Blues courtyard tonight for a free show. He’s had his stuff on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Cougar Town, So You Think You Can Dance and One Tree Hill and topped iTunes singer/songwriter chart with “Who We Are.” So if he’s good enough for Courtney Cox, he’s good enough for you.
