Hanukkah with Lights Ablazing

Starting on Sunday, December 21st the worlds larget Menorah will be lite in honor of the 1st night of Hanukkah. Four blocks north of Rockefeller Center at 5th Avenue and 59th Street stands the 32ft tall, 4000lb Menorah, which will be lite every night until Dec 30th.

Afterwards make your way over to Webster Hall(http://www.websterhall.com/0809_websterhall/index.php) or the Music Hall of Williamsburg (http://www.musichallofwilliamsburg.com/event/2213) to celebrate with Matisyahu, the Hasidic dub King. He and his opening acts, which include Easy All Stars, Hanukkah-specific rockers The Levees, and ascendant part-Jewish MC Asher Roth will be alternating between the 2 venues from Dec 21 through Dec 25th.
In case you've never heard of Matisyahu, have a look/listen
