Congrats. You all survived. However. the M.I.T supercomputer model "World3" suggests that as a civilization, we have already passed the Wile E. Coyote off-the-cliff-and-running-in-mid-air point. We need only to look down, realize our fate, and plummet into total meltdown.

But don't worry, we still have lots of fun for you before complete social breakdown, martial law, flood plains, black mold farms, and bad taste overrun the nation. All proceeds go to recovery from the SuperShitStorm Sandy deluge destruction at Serret Metal Works and the resurrection of the "BOATEL" art hotel project in Far Rockaway. Please come join us New Years as we celebrate the new normal with
Shameless, sweaty dancing from Barney Iller, Dj Shakey, and Dj Tinseltown, with a special midnight appearance by the Stumblebum Brass Band

Madagascar Institute's jet pony ride that may (will) kill you.
Midnight spectacular featuring a derelict car used as battering ram to destroy a massive disco ball piñata.

DIY vip section with empty bottle service
Serret's patented coal fire hot tub time machine.

Sadly "The future, according to some scientists, will be exactly like the past, only far more expensive." However, this will not be a problem. In fact, our supercomputer predicts an inflation adjustment to around mid seventies prices on drinks. We'll also have an open bar from 11:30 to 12:30. Come ring in the New Year's cheap, big, loud, dirty, and fun.

Costume suggestions: Mole people. Tank girl. Black mold. Fish nets with fish in them. C.H.U.D.s. Skulleaters. Troglodytes. Geriatric steampunk. NO ZOMBIES, zombies are out. Pure trash. GWAR. Post 2012 washed up messiahs. Adult babies. Sleazy guy who tries to make out with every girl he sees for an hour after midnight. Ferrel boy, Naked still works.
