Metromix your week

(Credit: Mark Bennington)

As we usher you from Christmas to New Year’s and from sobriety to drunkenness (and back), let us come together as one party people with this week's worth of ridiculous events. Prepare to celebrate holy days, shortened workweeks, trannies, filthy finger puppets, drum thunder, evil Santas, free concerts, hockey, hooky and suspiciously affordable palm readings.

We have so much going on for you in the next two weeks, we might just take next year off. It’s hard to top this, people.
