I am going (and being the driver) for 4 separate house parties...The plus is I get to see everyone the minus is until i reach my final destination...i am the driver so no toasting the new year until late in the evening...
I have a license to sell booze so my services are in demand until 9pm.
My friend who usually hosts a NYE gathering every year was still wavering as of yesterday, so I doubt that's going to happen. Plan B is to go see a local band.
I will be at home, in my PJs, drinking wine and watching movies with my only other single friend. I decided to stay in this year and keep a low profile... seems like the best way to start off my new (and hopefully better) year!
Everyone please be safe and enjoy a great start to the New Year!

I'm going to a friend's place for a black tie party. Rather than spending big bucks on a tux, I've just made my own out of an old black t-shirt of mine. I still need to figure out the tie situation.
Either way, there will be a variety of instruments in the corner of the room with an open jam sesh all night. Should be a fun night! ;D

I am driving up to Austin to see a buddy who is home from grad school and hit up 6th street.
Is anyone by chance going to see Tiesto at the Roseland Ballroom in NYC? That show should kill... I saw him earlier this month in San Antonio when he melted my face off for the 2nd time this year ;D

I'll be haeading of to the Auditorium Theatre in a little bit to catch Umphreys. I have friends going to the Justice show tonight(I strongly considered giving up my UM tickets to go to Justice but just couldn't do it). Hopefully you all have a fun and safe new year.

I rented out a hotel room in the city, as did a bunch of friends, and plan we to ring in the new year in the bar next door. Glad I got the smoking room.
Hitting the North MS Allstars/ Lucero/ Jim Dickinson/ Amy LaVere bash at the Orpheum downtown. I'm sure traffic will be awful down there, but oh well. Then probably a party downtown afterwards.

y'all should come to flamingo cantina!! there's going to be some great reggae bands playing, some yummy jerk chicken, and a complimentary champagne toast at midnight!! doors open at 9pm
Information: Complimentary Champagne Toast at midnight! $20 at door, no advance tickets. 21+ only Join Flamingo and family for our annual NYE funky reggae party! Warm up with a plate of Winston's exquisite jerk chicken and sit back while we transport you to the chillest New Year's eve bash in town.We've got the founding fathers of Austin roots reggae, the Mau Mau Chaplains helping to ring in '09 with their authentic island sounds. Some of these guys have been gracing stages around town since the mid 70s...put it this way, they know what they're doing and you're gonna love it. After the red, green and gold bells usher out 2008, one of the gutsiest bands in town takes the stage, Grimy Styles. Taking the tradition of King Tubby and Lee 'Scratch' Perry and blowing it out of the water with their own layers of heavily eastern European inspired tracks, metal guitar riffs and straight up roots rhythms Grimy Styles defies genre-labeling. What we can label is this night at Flamingo Cantina as "One of the Best Austin Traditions Around.
At least you get to get out and do something - I am here with two teenagers, an 11 year old and a 3 year old - playing Wii games
You're there with your children... I'd think that would be enough...
Trust me it was enough - we had a good time and one of my friends came over for a little while to hang out also - so it turned out to be a great evening.
Would have been nice to have Boz at home - but he stayed busy at work all night getting people the help they needed.
