WHEN: 8:30PM
WHERE: Pangea, 178 Second Avenue

WHAT: Celebrate 'Jammuary' with Concert.TV and Relix Magazine
WHEN: 7:00PM-9:00PM
WHERE: The Slipper Room, 167 Orchard Street
WHY YOU SHOULD GO: If you can get past the horrific "Jammuary" tag, enjoy Concert.TV's airing of "all the jamtastic greats as determined by the Relix staff, including Phish, Widespread Panic, Jerry Garcia Band, The Allman Brothers Band and many more." No? OK, how about free Magic Hat?

WHERE: W New York, Heartbeat, 541 Lexington Avenue
WHY YOU SHOULD GO: Join high society photographer du jour Patrick McMullan's "Celebrate 2007" calendar launch? Free bubbly, according to the invite. There are far worse things to do, we suppose.
