****Updated at night to include: Long Island shows. This includes an AWESOME show on December 16th featuring Twisted Sister doing one of their kickass/hilarious Christmas sets, and will be hosted by Andrew WK (love him). Also, the opener is Adrenaline Mob. If they don't sound familiar to you, then let me fill you in - MIKE PORTNOY is a member. Oh and did I mention Yankee Bernie Williams will be there? KICK ASS!
Otherwise, I would say the best added show would be Soulfly on March 14th. (And I am not gonna lie, that Kix show in April makes me pretty excited).
