A Rumble New Year's Eve

Rumble! is Brooklyn's finest retro-greaser-soul-rocknroll party for queers, freaks and the otherwise sexual.

We'll admit it. We at Rumble HQ never really liked New Year's Eve. What's so great about 2012? We say. What about 1958? What about 1967? Which is why we're having a New Year's Old Year's party.

We're taking you back in time, away from this foul year of our lord 2012, into a better era, an era when the music was bopping, the dances were silly and the worst things you had to worry about were Biff Tannen and getting a zit. Fuck going into Manhattan, stay in Brooklyn with your friends and party so hard you start smoking with your nose. Featuring DJ BYOB, Drumpelstiltsken.

Dress code (not mandatory but encouraged): Time Warp Conventionist, 50's retro attire, Leather Jackets, Polka Dots, Jeans, James Dean, Marilyn, Rock Hudson, Annette Funicello, Greasers, Ne'er Do Wells, Prom Queens, Geeks, Teen Idols, Desperate Housewives and Rebels Without a Cause.

One Last Shag
348 Franklin, Brooklyn
G train to Bedford/Nostrand station, C train to Franklin station
9p-3:30a; $5 before 11p, $10 after

A Mister Saturday Night New Year's Eve

Okay, so it’s almost 2012. But before Quetzalcoatl returns to earth on a raft of snakes, let’s talk 2011. It was a lot of fun. We threw parties at night, parties during the day, parties in the rain and at least one party in space. And as the culmination of a bunch of different kinds of parties, we’ve decided to close out 2011 with our favorite kind of all: the simple kind. Simple, of course, doesn’t mean anything less than great.

We’re taking over House of Yes for Mister Saturday Night’s New Year’s Eve. If you haven’t yet joined us at House of Yes, prepare to be positively pleased. It’s got all the trappings of a great secret party space: plenty of comfortable places to sit, a nice long bar, a perfectly sized dancefloor, and nooks and corners to get a little lost in.

We’ll be bringing in the big, blue soundsystem, which has recently been tuned just for the room; Jeffrey Ralston, who installed the amazing space station at our Halloween party, will be dressing up the place special for the evening; and Justin and Eamon will be playing records all night long.

Probably best of all, though, we’re going to keep it intimate. No waiting for a drink for an hour at the bar, no standing in crazy lines at the bathroom, and no coat check debacles. Just you, us, some friends and some dancing. And a champagne toast at midnight, of course.

The catch (if you wanna call it that) is that you’ll need advance tickets to ring in the New Year with us. That way we can make sure that just the right amount of folks are inside. If you can’t make it for the ball drop, we’ll be opening the doors for everyone else at 3a, so you can still come and get down on the late end without a ticket. No matter when, we really hope to kick the year off with you. With residents Justin Carter and Eamon Harkin.

House of Yes
342 Maujer Street, between Waterbury and Morgan, Brooklyn
9p-6a, tickets sold out until 3a; $20
