Halloween
We had a blast this week playing the Halloween Party at Rererato, a charming little art gallery on 42nd b/n Killingsworth & Alberta. We played with no instrumental amplification, which gave the whole affair a hoedown sort of atmosphere, as we tried to stomp harder and sing louder than usual. It was also Will's 27th Birthday Eve, so we reconvened at his place, blocks away, for an afterparty and YouTube watching.
We dressed up as villains from David Lynch movies, which, for me, is kind of like somebody with intense arachnophobia dressing up as a spider. In the order pictured below, I was The Mystery Man from Lost Highway, Greg was Frank Booth from Blue Velvet, and Will was a terrifying Bob from Twin Peaks.
One of the other bands we played with, Dr. Something and the Poppin' Fresh Love Engines, dressed up as members of Dr. Teeth & The Electric Mayhem (The Muppet Band), which was pretty cool. Somehow we both lost the group costume contest to a couple of dudes wearing dresses and beards. Oh well.
Things are moving along nicely on the recording front, as we have about 10 songs recorded to some extent, and about 10 more waiting for their turn. Greg is going to be in LA and Hawaii for most of November, so that will give me, Will and Chris some time to tie up loose ends and, especially, get some vocals and lyrics written (I'm looking at you, me).
Plans to release the stuff as we go as EPs online and as CDRs, then collect it all as a full LP.
See you next time!
