New Years Eve Party In Times Square With Nick & Dana Posted: 31 Dec 2009 06:00 AM PST "Bring in the New Year close enough to Times Square to be a part of it, but not actually near that crazy mess! Like me, many New Yorkers have most likely done the Time Square New Years Ball drop once in their life. If you have you know that its a huge mess over there, with no place to go to the bathroom, or space to move around or even alcohol. Well this party is close enough to Time Square where you can feel like your part of the crazy celebration happening only one block away, but at the same time we have all the things that the crossroads are lacking! We have tons of space, with plenty of alcohol flowing! Join us for a New Years party of epic proportions! There is no expensive entry fee or wrist band or any of that nonsense. We have rented out a loft space with views of Times Square. We will have a bar with $5 drinks to purchase. We have an amazing band Hollis Brown performing, DJ Unpredictable, a giant projector so you can watch the ball drop, as well as plenty of space where you can make out at midnight!" Read More...

New Lost City : New Years Eve Posted: 31 Dec 2009 06:00 AM PST "This party comes in four sections spread across two buildings hidden in the heart of Brooklyn. A City of Grit: Dark + Sultry + Dramatic. Three warm floors of a former factory have been converted into a party paradise with hidden tea lounges, reckless rides, live art, cheap liquor and dark dance-floors. The music here is a throw-back to the classic loft-parties where live afro-beat mixes with stellar hip-hop and dj's meet in the middle to keep the people moving. A City of Glamor: Gorgeous + Lush + Provocative. Intelligent techno to breaks to deep dark house join in this seven thousand square foot loft lined with dripping video projections and female chandeliers (yes, there will be fire). The outdoor terrace will be heated with a wood burning stove and constant conversation. A City of Ice: Hidden + Festive + Insolent. One hundred fifty cubic feet of false snow, Santas and seditious elves mix with The Modern Dance Awareness Society to create a winter wonderland that is equal parts absurd and beautiful. Expect spiked cider. A City of Fire: Captivating + Indulgent + Dangerous. This is where beauty meets vice. Stripper poles, piano lounges, aerial acts, casino games and brass bands... The Most Important Midnight: Two Thousand Ten will begin with: champagne bottles, fire acts, brass band explosions, dance-floor countdowns, kisses from strangers and, for the chosen few, a three course meal at the center of it all. This is the start of the best year of your life." Feather masks will be rewarded with champagne and gifts. More details and full list of performers here. Read More...
