No.  
 
 That would be the New years  DAY thread.
 
 Besides, do you really have to rub it in?  
 I mean Jesus, they have 26 shows between the Anaheim and W Hollywood HOB's in the next two months, and none east of the rockies.

You know, I have no idea what we're doing for New Years (I can barely remember where I have to be for Thanksgiving).  But as soon as we figure it out, I'll let you know.  I'd love to catch that show with you.

When's the last time Jimmy's Chicken Shack crossed the Rockies?  Fair trade, I say.

Yep, that's pretty much it.    Of course, there's also Bridgetown, Stumptown, City of Roses, etc.
 
 Another show announced: Wu-Tang Clan at the Roseland Theatre in PDX

Dresden Dolls will be playing in NYC on the 31st. And lots of rumours that The Cure will be playing here as well.

For those of you that hate NYE, and live in the DC area, might I suggest something different:
 
 Monty Python and Holy Grail at the AFI on NYE.
 
 I'm tempted to see Chuck Brown at the 930, but I think Monty Python would be damn fun.
