Guess what people? After Wednesday, it will be 2009 and the show will go on. Specifically, it will go on this Sunday at Berbati's.

Until Wednesday, here are Portland New Year's Eve Events

From Andy of Bridgetown Comedy:
I'd like to thank the brave few who wouldn't let Snowpocalypse 2008 keep them from seeing the Tig Notaro/Natasha Leggero show last weekend.  It was a great time in spite of all the last minute changes, and I'm glad a bunch of you were able to make it.

The good news for those who missed Tig and Natasha is that Bridgetown has another show coming up this Sunday that's just as solidly hilarious.  San Francisco's Brent Weinbach is headlining — Brent was awarded the 2007 Andy Kaufman Award at the HBO Comedy Festival, has appeared at the Coachella and Bumbershoot festivals as well as Just For Laughs in Montreal, and is the creator and star of the Super Deluxe web series “Weinbach in Wonderland.”

This new years we have a very special event at the 2410. With the recession we decided to do a very low ticket price and include champagne toast at midnight. The event begins at 8 pm and will go until 8 am! Lot's of great artists have been added to create a very unique and special evening for everyone. This event is 21+ only and pre-sales are $20 thru BrownPaper

Another free New Years event. It looks like one good part of the economy is that there are are a few no-cover shows.

From Slabtown:

We don't know about you but here at Slabtown 2008 wasn't “all that”, a feeling we suspect a lot of you share.

And, frankly, new administration not withstanding, 2009 Read the rest of this entry »
