It's an all-out raver invasion! Run for the hills! Just kidding — the best chance for you to evade the onslaught of bass-hungry, dance-happy masses is probably to drive out to McMinnville and hide in that cave where they keep the bluegrass musicians. But why would you want to do that? Besides the obvious reasons, obviously. If you're looking for an all-out, amped-up NYE experience — and haven't already committed to one of the other options by the time you've read this far — head down to The Muse for a diverse lineup of local sounds. With hip-hop from Kid Dead and Island Hustle Society — two of 2011s strongest new entrants into the rap scene — and mega-womp goodness from
Scene favorites Dorian, Tha Blackheart and Rachel Cromatiq, Afterlife is raging till the ass-crack of dawn, so even the tardiest of rave-tards can make it before the night’s over.
