What will you be doing this New Year’s Eve? If you’re happy to curl up on the couch with ice cream watching New Year’s Eve starring Ashton Kutcher, Zefron, and some other people, that’s cool. But if you’re up for some live music, the company of friends, and counting down aloud, then here are some suggestions for you to ring in the new year in style, and with music accompaniment.
