If you can get around the logistic nightmare of traveling to and from downtown and you’re not suckered into designated driving and you can afford the $80 cover and you don’t suffer from claustrophobia this is easily the most appealing NYE option on the table.
Recommended Show of the Week: Rogue Wave @ Troubadour. Rogue WaveRogue Wave puts on a great live show. But there will be a point Tuesday at the Troubadour when lead singer Zach Rogue will remove his knit cap and reveal some serious male pattern baldness. It will distract you for the rest of the night. He could be singing like Placido Domingo but all you’ll see is dome.
Son Volt at the Roxy for a good cause–just go. Also, Har Mar Superstar is essentially a fat Pauly Shore…
Recommended Show of the Week: Rapture @ Viper Room & Troubadour. OK, you know how no one is supposed to know when The Rapture is coming? Not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father? Well, I ran into the Lord Saturday night at The Joker on Pico. One Jager shot led to another and after our sixth round He happened to mention The Rapture was coming not once, but twice this week–Wednesday at the Troubadour and Thursday at the Viper Room. I probably shouldn’t be sharing this with you. But he didn’t say I couldn’t tell anyone so when it happens just act totally surprised.
