This week is all about New Years Eve — going out with the old and bringing in the new.
There are a heap of shows happening on New Years Eve this year. There are a lot of New Year’s Eve options featuring live music.
There is the big rock show at the Stone with the Dudes and Phantom Creeps. Bbut blues fans will want to check out the Janni Lee band at the Slice. There is a five dollar cover for that show.
There is no cover at the Owl Acoustic Lounge where the Necessities will be performing.
There is also no cover at Scores South where Band of Brothers will be performing beginning at approximately 9 p.m.
And, if you want to dance, Hippodrome will be playing the Casino Lethbridge. There is no cover for that show either.
If you like modern rock, Double Jack are playing Bo Diddly’s for their New Year’s Eve party, which begins at 7 p.m. Tickets cost $25 in advance if you want to book a table plus a mini beef wellington dinner, champagne at midnight at 10 extra 50 50 tickets.

Also for classic rock, Ah Bee Normal plays Bully’s Entertainment Centre fro New Year’s Eve. There is no cover for the show. But there will be a buffet for $12.95 from 6-9 p.m.
