Gig Guide
FRIDAY AT BILLY'S CLUBHOUSE
Revolution 360 is a legend supergroup of sorts. Lead vocals are handled by a member of the Original Drifters. The guy laying down bass lines has played with Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin, Johnny Taylor, Mavis Staples, Bobby Womack, Percy Sledge, Cher and Carlos Santana. Last, but certainly not least, is the one and only Robert Lee Coleman, who has been playing blues and funk since LBJ was in the White House, a talent that found him playing with the likes of James Brown and Percy Sledge. If you're looking to get outta the house on Christmas Day, this is by far your best bet. 10 p.m. Free.
Wide-eyed Susans, Dirty Doves and Tanosweg
THURSDAY AT THE BACK PORCH LOUNGE
Wide-eyed Susans (a new project lead by Dustin Murdock) make their debut on New Year's Eve. They will be joined by Dirty Doves, who will be bringing their own brand of down and dirty blues, and Tanosweg, yet another post-Xavii side project from the one and only Zack Matthews. 9 p.m.
The Atlanta Funk Society
THURSDAY AT THE MACON MARRIOTT CENTREPLEX BALLROOM
The Atlanta Funk Society sounds like a super hip community organization determined to unite the masses with the power of funk. The reality isn't too far off. This 12-piece funk band plans to ring in the New Year in the funkiest way imaginable for the Macon Marriott City Center's New Year's Eve Big Bash. Several VIP packages are available, with options that include open bar from 8 p.m.-midnight, appetizers and a post-midnight breakfast buffet. For more information, call 478-751-9232. 8 p.m.
Rockin' New Years Eve with A2Z Band
THURSDAY AT THE LIBRARY BALLROOM
A2Z Band is a group of musicians accustomed to playing parties and events. Lots of people like them. They're sure to do covers that everyone can remember and dance to. There also will be libations and snacks. Eat. Drink. Be Merry. Commence the rockin'. $20, or two for $35 pre-sale. Tables also are available, contact Kaylee Pruitt Smith at 478-957-7728 for more details. 9 p.m.
Boot Hill's Last Ride
THURSDAY AT BILLY'S CLUBHOUSE
The title sounds like a long lost John Wayne film, but alas, this is far more serious than even a film starring the Duke. Boot Hill has been gracing the stages of Middle Georgia for years, bringing with them the enthusiasm for roots rock 'n' roll and good times that we've all grown accustomed to. This will, indeed, be their last ride, so giddy up and get ready for a rollickin' New Year's Eve. 9:05 p.m. Free.
