Who's ready to rock on New Year's Eve? If you're one of those with their hands raised (you can lower them now) then look no further than this guide to the Top 11 concerts happening on Dec. 31 in the Bay Area.

Or how about the pairing of jazz greats Christian McBride and Brad Mehldau at the Presidio Theatre in San Francisco?
