Curious about which local bands are playing in the area on New Year's Eve? Curious about where? And when? And whether you'll be able to toast 2006's arrival with some champagne? So were we. The following is an A through Z (or rather, B through W) listing of area venues that will ring in the new year with live music, the musicians they'll be featuring, what time their sets start, what cover charges to expect .
.. and, of course, whether or not there'll be bubbly served at midnight. (Looks like you don't have to worry about that no matter where you go.)
