A scrappy Vietnam Veterans bar ("Miami" stands for "Missing in Action in Michigan") in the Cass Corridor, the Old Miami serves as a reminder of the unlikely environs that often embrace underground music in its infancy. Years before it reached visible saturation at the Gold Dollar or Magic Stick, the seeds of Detroit's future garage explosion were being planted here, as widely ignored bands like the Gories, the Covingtons and the 3-D Invisibles were welcomed with open arms.
