It's Halloween

[ateolf]

went to see Ryan's band play last night...note to self: NEVER play a show at Neil's under any circumstances whatsoever...they had to split their set into two parts and during the interim the sound guy's just blasting louder-than-the-band, incongruous, bumpin' booty-house-rap...followed by a constume contest...which could be forgivable seeing it was halloween and all (although odd in the midst of a band's sets) but they were saying contests are a regular thing up at Neil's on fridays and later there was "the popular" hula-hoop contest (we didn't stick around for this)...and throughout Neil (i think) is up there mc'ing like a jackass...the whole thing reeked of trying to put on some sort of frat party production...it was pretty sad and embarassing...the first band was Funeral Walkaway Parade who i hadn't heard and were okay...they'd have been much better had the singer not done this overbering vibrato goat voice half the time he sang...there were good aspects to their music but on the whole i was kinda unmoved...once again i had costume failure...we tried adjusting it but still i couldn't wear it for more than a few minutes before being bothered by it and taking it off...
