Aside from Halloween, there is no other night like New Years Eve where live music pulls out all the tricks, unique countdowns. covers and shenanigans. 2015>2016 had to rank among the greatest first nights ever with Dead & Co making their first holiday run and Gov’t Mule playing three explosive sets covering The Band, The Allman Brothers Band and The Grateful Dead. We did the dirty work of compiling the setlists and highlight snippets for the band’s that matter on New Years Eve. Check em all out below!
