“We are raging into 2016 at full throttle with our biggest Bassnectar New Years Eve Gathering ever. JOIN US!
After last year’s entire event sold out in the blink of an eye, we began searching for a new room which could fit as many beautiful bass heads as possible.
While it may seem like the road less travelled, we have found the perfect temple for our ceremony: we are proud to bring the NYE360 experience to Birmingham, Alabama! We scoured the country high and low for the best home we could find, and in the BJCC Legacy Arena we have a room that is both more intimate and nearly twice the capacity of Nashville. RESULT!
In keeping with the tradition of good old-fashioned Southern Hospitality, Birmingham is welcoming all bass heads with open arms, and we are proud to have found such a perfect new home for the NYE360 Spaceship. The stands are all free-roaming GA and there is not a bad seat in the house. You will feel closer to me. I will feel closer to you. I will be able to see the color of your eyes from the back of the bleachers and the entire room will be one massive spinning circular launchpad!!!
Joining us in the cockpit to help us smash the light-barrier and break on through to the other side, our super special guests:
• The Glitch Mob
• Paper Diamond
• Psymbionic
This is an 18+ Age Limit event.
We want to welcome as many of you as possible to be a part of this – and avoid disappointed bass heads who cannot get tickets. Like previous years, and Red Rocks & Halloween, we know tickets will go fast. Make sure to clear your schedule, set your alarms, and be fearless and unrelenting in your page refreshing! TICKETS ARE ON SALE NOW!”

For those who want to take their adventure further, you can opt to add water sports, spa services, extra nights and other options to explore the beautiful Mayan Riviera.

“Slightly Stoopid and Cloud 9 Adventures have announced the second edition of CLOSER TO THE SUN 2015, a tropical concert vacation held over four nights at an all-inclusive resort surrounded by a beautiful Mayan landscape. After blowing away fans with an amazing first year experience (view the 2014 recap video here), the event returns for a second year with a new round of artists to round out the bill. The 2015 lineup again features three performances by host band Slightly Stoopid, this time joined by SOJA, Iration, Pepper, and Ozomatli, playing two shows each. In addition, special guests G. Love, Don Carlos, Karl Denson, and Ian Neville will be featured throughout the event with exclusive sit-ins and collaborations. Main performances will be held on a stage built on the beach, while late night parties will be held in an open-air palapa.
Slightly Stoopid Miles Doughty said, “Closer to the sun is the ultimate pre-holiday get away for fans and the bands. From the beach to the cenotes and ruins, the Mayan Riviera is truly a special place. We wanted to create an intimate vibes holiday adventure for our fans that is different than any other fan experience. There is nothing better than being able to jam with your friends in paradise on the beach and share those experiences with a close group of fans and friends.”
More than a series of concerts, this intimate event brings fans and performers together on a luxurious vacation where the nights are filled with performances held on the beach stage just steps away from guests’ accommodations, while the days consist of artist-hosted activities, excursions, beach games, and poolside performances. The unique setting allows casual artist interaction, artist-hosted workshops, activities and contests, as well as an autograph signing and impromptu jam sessions.
Situated on pristine beaches and tropical grounds, the Now Sapphire Resort offers all-inclusive, luxurious accommodations with an intimate vibe. The resort features finely appointed guest suites, a world-class spa and fitness center, eclectic dining, and beachfront palapas, all within a short walk of your own private accommodations and the main stage. Located just north of fishing village Puerto Morelos and 25 minutes south of the Cancun Airport, the resort is conveniently located making it easy to explore the surrounding Mayan region from Cancun to Tulum. Off-site excursions to explore the beautiful Mayan region can be booked separately through the Closer to the Sun website CloserToTheSun.com.”

“On 12/16/99 near the end of the road to Big Cypress, Phish played their only show at Reynolds Coliseum, a World War II era basketball arena on the NCSU campus with a concert capacity of about 14,000. Highlights from Set I included Chalk Dust Torture, Limb By Limb, Roggae and Possum. Set II featured some deep-space millennial exploration during Sand and Wading In The Velvet Sea > Tweezer > Runaway Jim. This show showcased the subtlety of communication and breadth of improvisation for which Phish was, by this time, world-renowned.
12/16/99 was recorded by Paul Languedoc to digital multitrack, mixed/mastered by Jon Altschiller. To download the show or to listen via the LivePhish App, visit http://livephi.sh/ph991216.”
