What are all the forumer's doing for New Years Eve on Saturday night? Not sure about what I'm doing. I hate going to over-priced bars/clubs paying 3 times the normal cover for $8 bottle of champagne toast at midnight. I'd much rather go to a party or even just stay in. New Years is always blown out of proportion and never lives up to the hype (at least in my experineces).

I was going to go to Mohegan Sun with a bunch of friends but it turns out that I am having surgery to repair my Achilles on Wednesday so it looks like I'll be laid up on New Year's. Oh well. At least I'll be high on pain killers! New Years is overrated anyway.

Lounge in the city... comes w/ dinner, open bar, private table... and breakfast :)
I'm going to New Hampshire with my girlfriend. New Year's is amatuer hour in Boston, to many people descend on the city and fill my favorite watering-holes out the door. I hate cover charges to begin with and on they are ridiculous that night.

$90... although I have seen 300. My friend promotes and gave me a hook up. BTW, there are 10 of us. So yeah... the whole thing is close to 1k.
There's this new place in the city called Pacha... hundred bucks just to get in the door. Does not include any alcohol or anything else.
Ridiculous =O

Wow...$90 for all that at a lounge isn't bad. Drinks are usually $8 each in lounges I go to, which is very infrequently because of that. Have a good time.
Bars up here normally charge $10 on weekends and they have band playing, but on this Saturday they're all like $40 and no band. No thanks.

I stay away from the bars/clubs...its too insane. These places rip you off, plus you have to deal with people who rarely go out at any other time during the year. And they are just obnoxious.
One of my friends will have a party, or I'll just round up some people to come over to my apt...and we'll go buy cheap beer, play some poker and watch the ball drop.

I've been there!
My friends went to Montreal last new years. One of them fell on ice and broke his ankle/tore some ligament. He was drunk, in a French speaking hospital at 4am on a gurney. They waited until he sobered up before seeing him. It was a long drive home for them after that.
Poor kid was in a full-leg cast until April.
We're going to a nice, early, dinner at a really fancy place. We'll be home by 7:30 or 8:00, watch a movie or something, and then toast some champagne at 12:00. We're really too young to act this old on NYE, but it's what we're happy doing.

I'm almost positive I have been to this place at least once. Crescent Street...if I remember correctly thats the heart of the Montreal nightlife.
I've been to Montreal twice...the last time about 3 years ago to see an Expos game. And I remember walking up and down that street all night barhopping...and I'm pretty sure this was one of the places we hit.
I have no friends. I'm not going anywhere. No one wants me at their parties.
Maybe I'll shell out $75 to go to the bar around the corner and drink myself silly.

I have no idea what I'm doing New Year's Eve. The wife and I have dinner reservations for Friday night to celebrate the one-year anniversary of our engagement at the restaurant where I proposed. But for New Years, we'll probably end up drinking (heavily) at someone's apartment. We're too damn old for the big party scene in the city (for years and years my friends and I would pay the $100 per person at various bars and clubs -- my favorite was seeing God Street Wine at the old Roseland in 1993/94).

I've never been a big fan of NYE. Unless you're at a friend's place or something like that. I hate going near bars. It's amature night, when every hoople and his brother who can't handle their booze decide to get trashed.

Show up at 11, drink everything by 11:30, try to stand up by midnight, pass out at 12:15. Then two girls who will be there make us breakfast (Advil included) when we wake up sometime between 8am and 4pm.

But New Year's Day, we're driving out to Palm Springs... It's my Christmas present to my Mom. She can gamble and shop at the outlet stores for a couple days.

That's what I call an amateur.
New Year's Eve is an excuse to get blindingly drunk and hang out with friends- it shouldn't be "just another night of drinking," in my opinion.
Mosey on up to the bar, pour 5 shots for you and 4 friends, and throw them back. Then do it again. Then once more.
Then drink regularly.
An hour later, slam a couple of drinks in a row for giggles. repeat this kind of thing until one of your friends pukes. Laugh at him for being the amateur (hopefully it's not you.)
Find the cutest girl in the place. Tell her she's the prettiest girl in the place, and that you haven't been able to stop sneaking glances her way since you got there. Hopefully she's too drunk to realize that you're NOT the cutest guy there, but instead the most charming, and she relents on her instinctive female tendencies.
From that point on, hope that you remember the rest of your evening...
Make sure all of this is done in a controlled environment amongst friends where you aren't impeding on others' nights.
Wake up in the morning and go to the gym, working out until you yak. Hooray!

Jack Daniels is a sippin' whiskey. Or at least that's what the regular next to me at Sligo's Pub in Somerville, MA told me and my friends one night in college when we were shooting it....
We're staying home. I asked my husband to get some champagne, and the kids will be home and having some friends over, so I guess I'll be making sure there's no "nonsense" going on.

Or at least that's what the regular next to me at Sligo's Pub in Somerville, MA told me and my friends one night in college when we were shooting it....That is true. When I go out to drink, I order Jack & Coke as a drink, not a shot. I don't do Jack shots (not frequently anyway). This particular day, I chugged the drink I had ordered, not a shot of Jack & Coke. Then I ordered another drink and decided to chug that too and so on....

After a few drinks they become less annoying and almost tolerable, and they'll even drive you home in daddy's Benz, or their very own black Jetta afterwards.

They're tripling the alcohol fines in Hermosa Beach... and I'm STILL paranoid about drunk drivers. (At least other cities have decent public transport (when they're not on strike). LA sucks in that respect.)

Music by DJ Joey Jammz, from the hit series Growing up Gotti :uhh:
I think the most annoying thing is that every DJ that I have seen with the the name Joe has a nickname "Joey Jams" with some variation of the spelling. And there are a surprising amount of them!

Then you just don't like to drink. It has nothing to do with New Year's Eve.
I never said I don't like to drink. When I go out to dinner with friends or my family, I'll have a cocktail or two. I just don't drink to get drunk.

I plan to be sound asleep at midnight, like I am every New Year's Eve. 2000 was somewhat of an event, but otherwise it's just another day to me. Year's ago I played in a commercial band, and watched everyone get loaded and stagger out at 2:00AM. My parents were hit head-on by a drunk in 1969 (no major injuries) and I witnessed a head-on caused by drunk driving in 1983. So, for those of you celebrating, please be careful and get a ride home if you have to.

? All the ladies become attractive after a couple of drinks. The first part of your statement holds true though. The worst is when there IS a girl that is hot and sloppy drunk but has a cockblocking friend who covers her back like a hawk. This friend will not leave her to have fun nor will she have a drink either.
Even your wingman cannot help you here.
Not saying I'm a hot and sloppy drunk, but that sounds exactly like when me and my friend Karen used to go out every Friday night (except at least she'd drink). But ask JP sometime about those days...funny isht.

Anyway, back to the original subject, we're going to JP's brother's house upstate - they are real party people and it's supposed to be just family (his other brother and wife are coming too), but I know it's going to end up as some kind of party and it should be a lot of fun.

This is the first year in a long time that I'll be able to spend New Year's Eve with the family. Normally, I'm onsite for the systems I support for the year-end run and get home at about 11:30.
I'm thinking this year we'll do what my parents did when I was growing up, play some of the new games that the kids got for Christmas and make a small party out of it.
Then New Year's Day, I'll chop up that fire hazard in the living room and get my house back in normal operating mode.

Ugh . . . like any good party, there was plenty of the good, the bad, and the ugly.
I drank heavily but not excessively. There was champagne, beer, cheerleader beer, Jaeger, vodka, and hunch punch featuring Everclear.
I wasn't even really drunk when I went to sleep, but the Everclear gave me a medium-strength hangover the next day. It was a bitch for what I was expecting, but it wasn't anything that a breakfast of Gatorade and pretzel sticks couldn't cure.
Believe it or not, I had never had Everclear before that night, so I didn't expect it to hit as hard as it did. By the end of the night, I was drinking the punch straight out of the pitcher.
