Thursday has always been the weekend’s unofficial little brother, but the fortuitous timing of New Year’s Eve meant the day finally got some shine. It also means our latest edition of Out on the Weekend features photos primarily from NYE bashes thrown by Mariah Carey, Disco Biscuits, Detroit Cobras, Frankie and the Outs, Sandra Bernhard, J.Lo (in a crazy bodysuit!), Paul Van Dyk, Surfer Blood, Fischerspooner, and more. God bless those of you who mustered the energy to go see Roky Erickson and Emily Wells on Saturday.
