To celebrate the New Year, you can sit at the same table and drink with traditional New Year's toasts. However themed parties are always better remembered - they are remembered for years, telling friends about an unforgettable and fun New Year's event.

Venue
To organize New Year 2016 in rock style, you need to find a place with a special atmosphere. Naturally, a restaurant with an interior in the style of Louis XV or a cafe furnished in Provence style will not suit you. The scope and content of such a party requires a good stage and an impressive space for the dance floor, so a house or apartment is considered as the very last option.
A rock party is a great way to spend
There are probably biker cafes, rock bars or avant-garde clubs in your city, you just have to look - these places are ideal, since in addition to the general surroundings, they also have the appropriate sound equipment. If you were unable to find such a room, then a spacious garage is suitable for a small party. For large quantity Guests can rent an empty industrial building or hangar.
Party decoration
The room you choose should embody the traditions of rock culture. The walls can be decorated with posters of legendary world rock bands and performers, images of motorcycles and sultry biker beauties. The lighting of the hall should not be too bright - it is better to concentrate all the light on the stage, especially if a live performance is planned.
In the center of the hall you can place a motorcycle painted with flames, or put a retro car from the heyday of rock culture. If none of the party participants has suitable motorcycle and automotive equipment, then the real motorcycle can be replaced with a dummy made of cardboard, foam plastic and a pair of wheels. A well-painted model will look just as good and will add the right touch of brutality to the holiday atmosphere.
Don't forget that rock is, first of all, drive! Approach the issue of inviting guests with imagination. It's easiest to call event participants to confirm the location and time of the event, but a stylish invitation that matches the theme will create greater anticipation. New Year's Eve at your friends' place. Design options can be very diverse: an invitation in the form of a ticket to a concert, a photo of a rock legend, or, for example, a postcard with a picture of Harley-Davidson.
Rock style clothes and hairstyle
Announce the dress code in advance in accordance with the rock theme new year party. Almost everyone has an outfit for such an evening: black leather pants or jeans, a leather vest with chains, a T-shirt with a portrait of a rock performer, famous group or its symbols, a leather jacket or a black hoodie, rough army boots or combat boots.
To complete the look, you can choose accessories in the form of metal chains, studded leather bracelets, rock-themed medallions, and the like. It is better to tie a black bandana on your head. The most brutal rockers can get temporary tattoos on their forearm or shoulder. Don't forget about the classic hairstyles of famous rockers!
The right clothes will help you get used to the image of your favorite rock performer. The ideal option is long flowing hair or low “ ponytail" To look more like rock musicians, short-haired men can even get a wig. If desired, give yourself a mohawk by styling your hair in high hairstyle using strong hold gel and hairspray. Girls do appropriate makeup, highlighting their eyes with black pencil and wearing scarlet or dark lipstick on their lips.
Menu for a rock party
Of course, you can cook Olivier, but it’s better to stick to rock standards. For a quick snack, organize a stylized rock bar with crackers, salted nuts and chips. The main courses should be simple: pork knuckle, barbecued ribs, steaks, shish kebab. Meat and sausage cuts and cheeses will not interfere. Offer pickles and salads as a side dish. Remember that the rocker menu is not refined, but “masculine” - hearty and meaty.
Burgers are a great dish for a rock menu As for alcoholic beverages, stock up on the traditional drink of every self-respecting rocker - beer. Whiskey and gin will also work. Of course, not everyone likes these particular alcoholic drinks, so you can, in agreement with invited friends, move away somewhat from the main theme of the evening and expand the alcoholic range. Don't forget about those who don't drink strong drinks, but buy enough water and juice.
New Year's entertainment
To maintain the atmosphere of a New Year's party, you can fence off a corner of the room with a screen and set up a tattoo parlor there. It is not necessary to invite a professional tattoo artist - just stock up on transferable tattoos that can be done by anyone. Quizzes and competitions with prizes are always a good way to spend time at a New Year's party, so think of a few themed tasks for participants.
Can you sing? Or don’t know how, but love it? Delight your friends with Nirvan in your performance! The best option for creating an unforgettable atmosphere of New Year's Eve would be an invitation musical group. You don’t have to aim at the stars, look for up-and-coming bands - they will be happy to play for a symbolic reward. You can also create a playlist of recognizable songs Rammstein groups, Halloween, KISS, Metallica, AC/DC, Nirvana, Queen. For slow romantic dances, the hits of Scorpions and Guns "N" Roses are suitable.
True fans of real rock will appreciate an original and well-organized evening dedicated to their favorite music. Rock has long been not so much a direction in music as a special philosophy, a special lifestyle. Organizing an event like rock party, does not require special costs. Enough liberated imagination, drive and great desire.
Venue
As a rule, rock party involves a large crowd of people, so you can invite everyone who is ready to plunge headlong into wild fun and have an unforgettable time. The only catch is finding an appropriate place with a special surroundings. An ordinary cozy cafe or restaurant is not suitable for holding rock parties. Here you need a large area with excellent acoustics, because rock requires scope. It could be a biker cafe, an avant-garde club, or an industrial space in the form of a hangar. The main thing is that all invitees fit in. In the warm season, the party can also be held outdoors - for example, on.

Rainy north Glasgow is the unlikely birthplace of one of the most positive rock bands of the 2000s. But that’s exactly what happened. The whole record jumps in one breath, and if the guests discover the second one, you can move on to their second album. And from there it’s just a stone’s throw from the third one. So it’s better to take everything, otherwise you’ll send a fool for a Franz Ferdinand album, and he’ll bring one.
24. Electric Six, "Fire" (2003)
Comical, dancing and daring debut from legendary rock city Detroit. Instantly turns off the brain of a hot audience. And then it won’t turn on for a long time (we warned you!).
23. Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings, "Double Bill" (2001)
A project by Bill Wyman (bassist of the Rolling Stones themselves, in case you forgot) with a ton of guest stars and impeccable dance blues, rhythm and blues and other positive Americana. The live double album "Double Bill" rocks the way the Blues Brothers always wanted, but lacked the fire.
22. Elton John, "Rock of the Westies" (1975)
Not the most popular among the people, but Elton John's most rocking album, perhaps the last of his wonderful records, after which Elton's work began to slide into a sterile conveyor belt routine. "Rock of the Westies" will be very useful to you if sober accountants suddenly drop by for the holiday lights. They have to start somewhere...
21. Arctic Monkeys, "Whatever People Say I Am, That"s What I"m Not" (2006)
The noisy debut of young people from near Sheffield became the soundtrack for a fair number of rocker parties in the 2000s. Although it is difficult to say whether he intended it this way, or whether everything happened by itself due to an excess of energy.
20. Mud, "Mud Rock" (1974)
A long-forgotten project from the great British producers Nikki Chinn and Mike Chapman. Nevertheless, this is an excellent rock and roll set for binge-watching, musically something at the intersection of The Move and The Sweet.
19. Kiss, "Dynasty" (1979)
Lightweight, commercial, but incredibly popular in the USSR and Russia, the Kiss album. Although the goofy spirit of parties and revelry can be caught on their other records - such as the debut "Kiss" or "Dressed to Kill".
18. Me First and The Gimme Gimmes, "Have a Ball" (1997)
A sunny, cheerful cover project from San Francisco, which includes members of the groups NOFX, Foo Fighters, Lagwagon and more. They release albums completely filled with punk re-covers of all sorts of pop, rock, country and other classics. The last (eighth) came out last year. You can start the barrel organ from anyone, but it’s better right from the first one.
17. Rose Tattoo, "Rose Tattoo" (1978)
Ancient, but still alive today, is an Australian hard rock-boogie-metal-blues band, in many ways similar to AC/DC, but not without its own twist. A very emotional contraption for sparking a brawl in a bar with pot-bellied alcoholics.
16. The Cars, "The Cars" (1978)
One of the first TV stars new wave, The Cars recorded this not noisy and not fast, but passionate record in 1978 and placed a photo of the Russian model, singer and poetess Natalia Medvedeva on the cover.
15. Rod Stewart, "Atlantic Crossing" (1975)
Rod Stewart's vocals and mannerisms may be a delight for everyone, but there are many such amateurs. In addition, Rod throughout his life had a phenomenal ability to select competent material for his records. "Atlantic Crossing" is the most temperamental and solid from beginning to end.
14. Doobie Brothers, "Toulouse Street" (1972)
Southern American rock in all its forms except one - boring. The album promises a lot of goodies and joy with its cover alone, where the Doobie Brothers are photographed in a traditional brothel.
13. The Pogues, "Red Roses for Me" (1984)
The greatest album for drinking, showdowns, brawls and orgies in an Irish pub.
12. Aerosmith, "Permanent Vacation" (1987)
Hard rock party albums are a separate art form, mostly American, although they are found everywhere. You can choose a lot from Van Halen, UFO, Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, but this is the record with which Aerosmith career was reborn and went uphill for the second time, bringing most joy from the loud sound. It’s not for nothing that the record was called “Eternal Vacation” - in the world of Aerosmith, nothing is done just like that... And if it’s just like that, then it’s even more fun.
11. Go Sailor, "Go Sailor" (1996)
If indie rockers or hipsters show up at the party, don't panic. Pull yourself together, and before they come to their senses, play the only LP from this underground surf-indie-pop-punk outfit from Berkeley, California. Perhaps the only way not to ruin the holiday.
10. Stray Cats "Rant n" Rave With the Stray Cats" (1983)
There are many ways to get a party into 100% rock 'n' roll mode - take a Little Richard or Shakin' Stevens record, for example. But The Stray Cats are the most versatile, they have chords for the fibers of every soul.
9. Slade, "Slayed?" (1972)
When it comes to rock in its purest and most unadulterated forms, it's hard to come up with anything more inspiring than glam rock titans Slade. It’s better to start on vinyl, and don’t forget to clap your hands and stomp your feet.
8. V/A, "Pulp Fiction Soundtrack" (1994)
As drunken practice shows, the soundtrack to “Pulp Fiction” is a surefire way to prevent even the most malicious guests from killing each other. Reconciling and joyful music acts paradoxically and does not fit in with Quentin’s deadly mythology.
7. Voice Actresses, (2009)
Under this record you will need to release anime cosplay girls from the cake. "Legendary Punk Songs Collection"- an amazing Japanese collection in which anime stars perform cover versions of punk hits.
6. Gorillaz, "Gorillaz" (2001)
This album is already 14 years old, but is still at the intersection of indie rock and dance music They never came up with anything better.
Throwing a party is a good opportunity to meet friends, talk and dance in a pleasant environment. It is common for young children to have a party to celebrate their birthday (and even children's party can be arranged in a very unusual way). The older generation and young people prefer to organize such “holidays” themselves, taking into account their interests and the interests of their environment. A good reason for any such event can be not only a birthday, but also any other holiday - New Year, name day or Halloween.
Some people like parties more, some less, but who can argue that attending one is a good opportunity to dress up fancy and elegant. Not only girls, but also guys like to dress differently on such a day. And it’s also nice to use a few drops of perfume or cologne before going out. But the most important thing for young people is the opportunity to meet someone special.
We like parties because of their special atmosphere, because we come there to talk and dance, not because we have to do it. Parties help a person relax and step away from everyday problems and worries. Parties always have their own charm, thanks to which this event is not forgotten for a long time and remains in the memory as one of the best events in our lives. But for this, the holiday party must be organized to the best of its ability. Even two hundred. Therefore, the organization, as well as the choice topics such a day, it is necessary to approach it very responsibly and with imagination.
One of the interesting and original topics for your important event or just have a nice evening maybe rock party. What is this type of party like?
This style is suitable for younger generation, who has plenty of energy and strength for exploits. But this does not mean that the older generation should deny themselves such things if they are young at heart and full of energy. This style is suitable for those who prefer rhythmic types of dance or even racing on motorcycles (bikes). There may sound musical compositions different rock stars (depending on the mood, they can be philosophical or serious; for variety, you can mix them with romantic and lyrical ones). Rock presented today generic name musical movements popular music - this is what unites us - millions of fans of the movement. A rock party can be arranged even for children by choosing not too heavy styles of music and developing a clothing style that will resemble the style of rock stars.
Invitations
If you decide not just to call and invite your friends, but to send them invitations, then this issue should also be approached with enthusiasm and fantasy. Invitation cards can contain vintage images, photographs of rock stars (both our scene and foreign ones), images of rock accessories, motorcycles, cars, and so on. This also depends on your taste and approach to this topic. But don’t forget that the invitations should convey the mood of the party as much as possible (you can even put a couple of jokes in them in this style).
Rock party scenario
Let's move on to the organization itself, if you decide that this topic suits you. A very important element here is creating the desired mood and special surroundings that are inherent in this style. Therefore, to fully realize your ideas, it is important, first of all, to choose the place where the party will be held.
So, let's start by defining Where this is where the event will take place. There are, of course, a lot of options. The first one that comes to mind is at home. But not everyone has friendly enough neighbors and not everyone has a living space spacious enough for this. Therefore, the second option would be to rent a room in a cafe/club/restaurant/dining room/office/ or rent a whole house with territory/camp site/ship where you can do your best. Good options for a mini-party: sauna, disco bus, bowling club, water park. Or even a big old hangar.
The second thing that also cannot be avoided when organizing a party is the selection of music, clothes, accessories and the question of how to iron place carrying out. You may or may not have a dress code, but you would like the party style to include everything for greater effect, so ask your guests to look for appropriate clothing in advance. For example, black leather jackets with metal studs, checkered or plain black shirts, sunglasses, chains and bandanas, jeans (worn jeans are especially suitable) or leather pants, and it’s time to put on ankle boots or boots on your feet. You can draw an artificial tattoo with henna or special paints.
How to prepare the room?
As for the hall itself (venue), it can be decorated with posters with images of celebrities in the rock genre, photographs and posters of retro cars/cool motorcycles, musical instruments, so that it conforms to the full traditions of rock. Simple snacks and drinks should be placed on the tables. You need to think through the lighting quite accurately, for example, place a rotating sparkling ball in the center of the room. On the one hand, it will not be too bright, but on the other hand, it will allow your guests to see all the paraphernalia of the evening.
In the middle of the hall it is quite possible to place motorbike or replace it with a dummy, if the budget does not allow you to purchase a real one, but you really want to have such an attribute. You can find a cardboard dummy or make it yourself. But, if money allows, then finding an ordinary motorcycle will not be difficult. Think about it, you don’t have to buy a bike in perfect condition. It is enough to find a used motorcycle on any website, which does not necessarily have to be running. The main thing is that it looks decent (after all, you can also update the paint on it yourself - it’s a matter of desire and inspiration). It wouldn’t hurt to put an unusual design on it.
Music
What to relax and dance to? What kind of music should be played? This question should not create problems at all, because both now and many years ago there were and are a lot of rock bands that are worthy of attention. Their style can be different - from hard rock to gentle melodies - all this should be combined. You might want to dance energetically to something, but no one has canceled romantic dances to which people get closer.
For example, you can put songs Tracktor Bowling, System of a Down, Rammstein, Lordi, KISS, Marilyn Manson, Metallica, AC/DC. From the Russian stage, Aria, Jane Air, Amatory, Lumen, Slot are suitable. For the younger generation, compositions by such groups as Linkin Park, 30 Seconds to Mars, Evanescence, Limp Bizkit, Bring Me The Horizon, Muse, Papa Roach, Nickelback. Let's not forget about legendary bands: Nirvana, Queen, The Beatles.
There really are a lot of rock bands, so choosing something to suit your taste and the taste of your guests will not be as difficult as it seems at first glance.
Menu
After intense dancing and colorful emotions, everyone will want to snack on something tasty and edible. How snack(to warm up the stomach) crackers, chips, popcorn, gelatins and fluffed marshmallows are suitable for those with a sweet tooth. You can make mini rolls or mini sandwiches with ham and cheese, or add pickles. You can wrap red fish in pita bread, after greasing it with melted cheese, and cut the resulting “sausages” into pieces. Garlic snacks will do.
