Can San Francisco pull the ultimate New Year’s party out of it’s ass? Justice has already been confirm for the ‘Number 9′ NYE event in Chicago. Not to say, Justice can’t pull world wide stops New Year’s Eve like Paul Oakenfold. The Thievery Corporation is on the bill for Sea of Dreams, weren’t they here last month? As with this past year, LA, Las Vegas and New York will leave SF in the dust. Let’s hope not.
In a year that has already featured a Coachella appearance and sold out U.K. tour, Pendulum will keep the fun going with slew of upcoming tour dates that will see the Australian drum and bass group bring its dance friendly sounds and styles to a number of North American cities come the fall.
