8:00 pm, Avery Fisher Hall (Lincoln Center). $65.00-$245.00

Celebrate the start of the New Year with this glamorous evening featuring Bernstein’s Overture to Candide and his Symphonic Dances from West Side Story, and Gershwin’s Concerto in F and Rhapsody in Blue.

New Years Eve in Times Square

If you're willing to brave to cold and crowds, the surely stars like Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Drake, Blake Shelton, Cee Lo Green and Tony Bennett might make it worth your while.

This is covered on over 1,000 websites, so I won't spend much time on it. After all, this is the "non-tourist" tourist guide to NYC. It is usually freezing, you're outside for 7 or more hours, elbow to elbow with over 700,000 people, no bathrooms, backpacks or beverages. Once the ball drops, it will be an hour before you can even leave Times Square.

I did do this when I was 16 years old, and it's nice to be able to say you did it once. You couldn't pay me to do it again.
