The night will be hosted by comedian Natalie Cuomo. Tickets for the opening night party are available here.

Located in Manhattan, Sid Gold's Request Room is a contemporary take on the classic piano bar created by Paul Devitt and Atlantic City native, Joe McGinty. An evening at Sid Gold's is like going to a house party and the host has a baby grand in his living room. Unlike traditional piano bars the music leans more toward pop, rock, soul and even some punk!

McGinty will bring that piano magic to Bourré (201 S. New York Ave.) for this special evening of festivities. A member of the Psychedelic Furs, McGinty is also the renowned founder of the legendary Loser's Lounge performance series.

The Anchor Rock Club's (247 S. New York Ave.) New York Night Train Soul Clap & Dance Off is hosted by America's best known soul and R&B DJ, Jonathan Toubin (a.k.a. The New York Night Train).

Toubin has been hosting his action packed Soul Clap dance offs for many years, spinning some of the most exciting 45's ever recorded. An esteemed panel of contest judges, including a number of Frantic City performers, will determine the prize winners throughout the night!
