Halloween gigs!

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey all. Anyone out there play any Halloween gigs? I had a pretty amazing gig myself. A little rundown:

I work with a very high end wedding and entertainment company. We've been getting really big, and have been doing private events for the owners, and the owners friends, asked for by name, for the last few weeks. Last night we played 7 World Trade Center. Amazing view of the memorial and Freedom Tower, and of course VIP clients. To sum it up, I actually met a billionaire. But, put that aside. We got to dress up! The catch was the client called and specifically asked me to dress in a certain costume. Of course, I was happy to oblige. It was a hit.



SO, did anyone else play and dress up?!

My band The Swearengens at Conor Byrne on Oct 29th.



Some of the crowd (my wife, middle-left with blue hair)


It was a fantastic night.

We did a gig we promoted at 'Rocky Horror Fest'.
1 set of Rocky Horror Music and and another set of spooky type songs.
I was dressed as Eddie....

This pic is from set 2 after the girls changed from their Rocky costumes (Columbia and Frank-n-Furter) into some straight up bondage gear...


More to come.....

Hell yea bro! They had officers and dogs sniff out our gear and the whole floor at the venue (WTC 7), so releasing a ball of fire from my mouth was out of the question. Awesome though!
