Dark Star Orchestra.: NYE Shows

BALTIMORE GETS THE TREATMENT GOING INTO 2010

DSO

Dark Star Orchestra has locked in their NYE plans. This year’s New Year’s run will kick off on December 28 at The NorVa in Norfolk, VA, followed by a show on December 29 at The National in Richmond leading to a two-night stand in Baltimore, MD at Rams Head Live. The 12/30 and 12/31 shows will be presented by Walther Productions, who also brings folks the All Good Music Festival. Based on last year’s shenanigans – a 12/31/78 recreation complete with Father Time flying in the New Year on a 7-foot joint – this is likely to be a unique celebration.

All tickets include a champagne toast, finger foods, and party favors. A limited quantity of Early Bird tickets are on-sale now, and VIP Tickets, which includes special merch, champagne toast, finger foods, party favors, an exclusive viewing area and more, are also available. More details and a special hotel deal will be announced soon.


Umphrey’s McGee: NYE Run

THREE NIGHTS IN WINDY CITY GO ON SALE TODAY

Jake Cinninger – UM – by Norman Sands

Over the course of the past nine New Year’s celebrations, Umphrey’s McGee have called many of Chicago’s finest venues home. For their tenth New Year’s Eve in Chicago, they revisit two venues where they’ve had many memorable nights in years past. UM will play The Vic Theatre on Tuesday December 29, 2009. The band then return to the Aragon Ballroom for the final two nights of 2009, Wednesday December 30 and Thursday December 31.

Please note that tickets to the Vic Theatre will only be available via three-show ticket purchases.


Lotus: NYE in Philly

RINGING IN THE NEW YEAR WITH BROTHERLY LOVE

Lotus

Today Lotus announced a New Year’s eve run in Pennsylvania that will culminate with an epic New Year’s Eve show with MSTRKRFT at Philadelphia’s Electric Factory. Leading up to the big night, the band will stop at Mr. Small’s Theatre (Pittsburgh, PA) on December 29 and The Note (West Chester, PA) on December 30, both with support act Tigersapien.

The New Year’s Eve announcement comes as Lotus prepares to hit the road for a full season of touring. Lotus will break ground in a way that no other rock band has done prior – they are plotting a tour this fall that truly allows their legion of fans to pay-what-they-want for tickets. The Pay-What-You-Want-Tour (Oct 6 – Oct 14) featuring Lotus is an eight night run of shows in western U.S. states, sponsored by Ticketweb, that lets the fans decide how much their show ticket will cost. At the $15.00 Pay-What-You-Want level or higher, fans receive free digital downloads of the band’s two new EPs Feather on Wood and Oil on Glass, both to be released on October 6, 2009.

The Pay-What-You-Want dates are part of Lotus’ larger Fall Tour, running from early-October through the end of the year. Big stops include performances at Denver’s Fillmore, NYC’s Terminal 5 (w/ support acts RJD2 and Junior Boys DJ set), Baltimore’s Sonar, Chicago’s Vic Theatre, the Electric Factory in Philly for New Year’s Eve and others. Lotus brings out several must-see opening acts for many of these shows, including Break Science feat Adam Dietch, The Egg (from London, UK), Big in Japan, Big Gigantic, RJD2, Junior Boys, and more. Don’t miss a few special small shows: here’s the scoop – the Denver Fillmore show is being bundled with the Quixote’s show (to get into Quixotes, you must buy the Fillmore ticket), and also, for New Years, Lotus presents another “bundled” show at The Note in West Chester, PA (to purchase a ticket for The Note, you must purchase a bundled Electric Factory ticket).

Downloads of both new EPs will be bundled with advance ticket purchases for select Fall Tour dates including the two Denver shows, both Boston shows and the New Year’s run. The material on both Feather on Wood and Oil on Glass can be directly traced back to Lotus’ 2008 full-length release, Hammerstrike. A number of songs were recorded that didn’t find their way onto Hammerstrike (either they hadn’t been finished by deadlines or they weren’t coalescing with the sound of that project), but after finishing the album, Lotus decided to revisit these tracks, and the results are extraordinary. Feather on Wood is sunnier with a laid-back vibe, yet not afraid of big rock beauty, while Oil on Glass is darker in character, with more head-nodding.

The New Deal: NYE in NYC

The New Deal Return to B.B. Kings in NYC for a late night New Year’s Eve Throwdown


The New Deal

The New Deal has been in constant evolution throughout their 10-year career. While continuing to draw from their roots in live house, breakbeat and dub-step, over the past year the band has brought on a more aggressive sound based in new rave and rock & roll, which has brought legions of new fans and bigger crowds coming to see this band from Toronto, Canada. Sold out tours through Japan and the U.S. have resulted in the recording of the band’s tenth album, a full-length live record to be released in Japan in Fall 2009, and North America in early 2010. The New Deal continues to push their sonic envelope, improvising show after show with their signature live techno-rock sound.


Don’t miss this epic late night event in the heart of Times Square this New Year’s eve, featuring live-techno-electro pioneers, The New Deal.
