180439 @Svetlana: Svetlana, you are totally right, I didn't express myself well. I meant club-music (hit list music). Because I went to your Holiday Party and I looooved it! Except the music.. you couldn't really dance to it! Thanks!

180440 @belubs: Well, while we definitely cannot promise you Katy Perry/Rihanna/Drake 24/7 at the event (just sort of not the BYT way to do exactly what you can find in every single club), the bands are all playing dance-to-guilty-pleasure covers and hits (in the past it's been everything from "Teenage Dream" to Prince) and NYE definitely is a lot of fun and we have multiple dance areas to choose from so you should be fune, I promise. But the Animal Collective room WILL get weird, so that's a fair warning.
