Back in the stoned age, when we still had a music industry, it made sense for acts to charge a bit more for NYE gigs. Your butt was going out because your girl/guy/other wasn't gonna let you sit home and watch Dick Clark's ghost count down in the blizzard.
But as music has been devalued to the point where 200,000 -3000,000 records sold can buy you a #1 record, it is amazing that people are willing to spend a whopping $500 to see Drake croon poolside at the W hotel - and not even get into the afterparty without dropping another $175! For $675, Drake should give you a table dance and send some of his groupies home with you to wash your windows and do your dishes.
So rather than spend your kid's college fund, the vagabond has nipped the excesses in the bud and for the low, low price of $10, you can buy advance tickets here for a party that will be just as good as any overpriced party featuring C list celebs, Porn Stars, Playboy Bunnies, or superstar DJs pretending to spin instead of hitting "return" on their laptops.
Headlining the Vagabond's NYE party is female synth pop duo The State Of, who have charmed their way through the music scene over the past year with harmonies and hooks worthy of an international hipster breakthrough. So instead of catching someone on the backside of their career for $200 (Like Fatboy Slim for instance), you can save your Benjamins and spend it on booze and a limo like Baby New Year intended.
