Today in NYC: Saturday, December 19

[Because of today's snow storm, there is a possibility that some events get canceled. It is a good idea to call ahead to make sure the event you want to go to is still being held.]


Lots of holiday parties and events to chose from today: DJ Lou Smith (DLJ) hosts his annual Jingle Jam ($5 off if you mention MurphGuide at the door)...Our friends in The Itinerants host their 2nd annual Holiday Hootenanny, with loads of guest singers and musicians getting together to sing and play...Joanna at Doc Holliday's hosts a holiday shopping and drinking mashup called Booze, Broads & Shopping, where you can kill two birds (and some brain cells) with one stone... The Old Blue Rugby Club hosts their 2nd annual Sexy Santa Party at The Australian...The Irish Arts Center hosts An Irish Christmas tonight and tomorrow...Our friend Dave from the NY Social Network hosts their annual party at Merchants...World famous DJ Jonathan Peters hosts Pacha's Christmas Party...Downtown legend Murray Hill hosts A Murray Christmas at Abrons Arts Center...and some bars throwing their own Christmas parties tonight include Calico Jacks & McFadden's Miracle on 42nd St., Bar 43 in Sunnyside, Peggy O'Neill's in Coney Island, The Ballybunion in Bay Ridge (featuring live music by The Dirty Stayouts)...
