So today we have the first look at some of the area’s New Year’s Eve shows. These represent the ones we have found or were sent to us so far (and time is running out) and is in no way near a complete listing. Where ever you decide to visit New Year’s Eve call ahead to see if you need reservations! A lot of venues we talked to were doing advance tickets or reservations required with limited or no tickets at the door. Save yourself some trouble book ahead. And this may sound like a not so Rock n Roll thing to say, but Hey if you’re going to drink, please get someone else to drive. We’d like to keep our and your friends and family intact to Rock On in 2017! You still have a week to arrange things, so get at it. We are happy to pass on the news that our friends at Listen Live Music up in Macungie have reorganized and started to schedule some new shows. They have pulled together a Christmas show with Tony Trischka on the 23rd. At press time there were still tickets available. To purchase tickets online go to www.listenlivemusic.com. So this is almost it for 2016, it’s been quite a ride. Merry Christmas to all! Peace.
Do you want to see your band or venue listed here at WTIM send an email to tdietterick@21st-centurymedia.com with the particulars (at least 2 weeks in advance) and we’ll get it out there.
