Don't get me wrong, I love summer. But, as the thermometer whizzes past 100 again today, I'll admit I start to think about fall. Specifically, Halloween, which is totally my favorite holiday.
Last Halloween I went to a place in Philly called The Ox. It was definitely in my top 5 Halloweens yet. This being the night everyone gets to pretend to be someone else, they had a bunch of bands play all covers.
Rapid Cities did an amazing set of Fugazi covers and another band played all Neutral Milk Hotel. I never got to see either of those actual bands, so this was probably as close as I'll ever get, and it was pretty rad.
At midnight they had a demon summoning with candles and a pentagram and everything. They had even hung real chicken's feet from the ceiling of the "summoning room." It was dark except for the candles, so every once in a while one would graze your shoulder. No demon showed up, but there's always next year...
