It's New Year's Eve, so chances are pretty good you have your day and night planned. If not, be sure to check out our event listings and Staff Picks for some suggestions. 

Here are a few highlights I found for Wednesday, Dec. 31: 

COMMUNITY | Ya heard? It's New Year's Eve! That means there is a ridiculous amount of fun to be had out and about. The city is hosting First Night Spokane if you're looking for something on the "family-friendly" tip,with activities all over downtown, inside and out. 

MUSIC EVENTS & CONCERTS | The Spokane Symphony hosts a special performance of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony every New Year's Eve, so you can class up your evening pretty easily with a visit to the Fox. 

LIVE BANDS | The Bartlett is hosting a slew of fine local bands Wednesday night, including Lavoy, Normal Babies and Pine League. 

LIVE BANDS | If you didn't read our Bone Thugs-N-Harmony preview story, go ahead and do it right now. Then consider checking out the Cleveland crew's show at The Knitting Factory. Here's a little taste of what they do so well: 
There are SO many events happening, you really need to check out complete listings, or at least read our comprehensive story of New Year's Eve options. Then get out there with the old pros and the amateurs who only throw down on New Year's Eve and St. Patrick's Day. Just be safe and live to rage into 2015. 

The What's Up? blog will be recovering with the rest of you on January 1, we'll catch you when we're conscious again on Friday.
