New Year's Eve ideas

You do anything special for New Year's Eve to make it more fun than usual or business as usual?

In our area...a mummers medley..

One year I spotlighted a different decade each hour. Started with the 40's, 50s, 60's and ended with the disco 70's/80's. Went over well, and each hour I changed my clothes to fit the era!

What's a mummers?

UD ... I've done similar stuff with the music, but not the change of clothes ...that's quite an effort ... where are the pix?

Never took any pictures, but it was no big deal either - Suit and fadora, HS letter sweater, open vest with fringes, and silky shirt with puffy sleeves and HUGE medalion around the neck!(silly, I know)

Somebody told me to put up different clocks from around the world and have drink specials every hour for when it strikes midnight at those various places. Heck with that, good idea, but you could just bring one clock and stick different signs on it for different time zones and keep it on midnight hour. Hold it up and say "It's midnight in Philly (11pm here), so let's celebrate with a shot of Early Times." My brother would like that. I think it's the cheapest whiskey there is.

.... whatever works ...

These days, my NYE clients are older, less crazy, yet more fun, with less booze. Win - Win - Win !
This years crowd will be 50-80yr olds that all live in the same complex, many of them are retired, and just want to have some fun. No amature drinking hour, no crazy head bangers...just good music and good people......and no silly outfits.
Me in a tux ..... 3k, laptop, Bose ...... life is good.
Happy new year!

Most likely I'll spend New Year's Eve watching TV live telecast about news updates on tsunami that devastated Southeast Asian nations. Definitely New Year's Eve festivities in these affected countries were cancelled but focus more attention in searching bodies of missing victims. Instead of joy to welcome the coming New Year the reverse will prevail ... grievances for the surviving kins.

Jessie, my deepest condolences go out to you and all my brothers & sisters in Malaysia and the entire South East region affected by the tsunami. I read this morning that there are currently 66+ deaths in Malaysia alone, with one even in Selangor (where you live): http://www.abcmalaysia.com/maps/selangor_map.htm

With all the tragedy, we must look to 2005 for hope and recovery. We're all with you Jessie. In the meantime, we at Synthzone welcome you to our worldwide 'global' Synthzone arranger keyboard community.
