According to the band's Facebook, Drawing A Blank is a one of a kind band with a one of a kind sound based in San Angelo, Texas. 

For the last stop of the night be ready to have some fun. Remember your dancing shoes ladies because at Penny Tap House on New Years Eve Amino will be taking over the building. Along with the Tejano band ring in the New Year with $3 import beers and $4 select shots. Ánimo on their Facebook describes itself as a Multi-Genre Band Based Out Of San Angelo. 

If you do following this guide it is likely you'll have the best NYE possible. To ensure that you make it to the new year though make sure you follow a few steps. First never drink and drive instead use ride share apps like, Uber and Lyft, or find a responsible designated driver.  Second always remember to wear a seatbelt while in a vehicle as this is the most dangerous time of the year. Lastly do not text and drive. Distracted driving is just as dangerous as drunk driving so stay off the road.
