Nobody here thinkin about a NYE show?

 

I think I might end up in nyc...Wilco and Flaming Lips is a pretty neat bill.

[Mole]

I love the fact that mostly Jam Bands play on New Years.

[Red Baron]

The biggest new years eve bash is in Niagara Falls with Collective Soul and The Trews. It's free so I might go.

[The Czech Republic]

Umphreys McGee/Mini Kiss - Riviera Theatre, Chicago

Stellar Spark II(techno fest) - The Rave, Milwaukee

I'm not feeling it.

[The Amazing Rando]

I love the fact that mostly Jam Bands play on New Years.

Of course, cause nobody gives a shit if they play for four hours straight cause most of the crowd is blazed out of their head anyway.

 

Also, I'd love to see Moe, Flaming Lips/Wilco, or Keller Williams...but would never be able to get to any of them (living in Western Maryland as I do)

[Placebo Effect]

If I remember correctly, Dramarama and the Smithereens are playing Sayreville, NJ and Clutch is in Philly.

 

I'm thinking about Clutch.

[cbacon]

I'd go to Wilco/Flaming Lips

I dont know too many radio bands that can play for several hours in a party atmosphere...a few can, but the 'jam bands' tend to fit the bill perfectly.

 

Too bad theres no word of Modest Mouse, The Dead, Trey Anastasio, Tool, Damien Rice, U2, Beck, or Mike Patton doing some sort of NYE show...

Nothing in Los Angeles? if not, I guess I'm S.O.L. There has to be something, though...

Crystal Method and Paul Oakenfield, if you're into that kind of stuff. The Doors of the 21st Century and Al Green are both in Anaheim. Joe Satriani in Ventura. Thought there would be bigger acts in your neck of the woods.

Chrystal Method and Oakenfold would be a pretty fun NYE party...

[5_moves_of_doom]

Don't forget Dick Dale and the 5,6,7,8's in Southern California! Zing!

[Matt Young]

The Doors are one of my 2 favorite bands ever, and Anaheim's closer than LA. if tickets are still on sale and don't go for an ungodly amount of dinero (which they probably will), I'm there.

If you count the Doors as one of your favorite bands ever...why do you have any interest in seeing this 21st Century bullshit?

[Matt Young]

The same reason so many people attend all the Kiss "farewell" tours... Half the original band members is better than nothing at all.
