On New Years Eve in NYC that is a bargain. It's very generous!
for instance the 8 pm show at birdland is $75 for
The Birdland Big Band + Special Guest Vocalist/Saxophonist Darmon Meader (New York Voices) whoever the fuck they are I'm sure they play great
$135 @ The JAzz Standard to see the Dr. Lonnie Smith Octet (includes a 3 course meal)
For $60 you get a bar stool at City Winery (former knitting factory ownser) to see the Fab Faux at 7 pm - but that is sold out.
You're gonna be standing on line for awhile to to ensure you get in, the Stone doesn't hold that many people. maybe 120?
