It's an old concept, where you show up a couple of hours early, lug a bunch of gear into the venue, drink a few beers, make a bunch of noise, lug a bunch of gear back outside, and go home, so that you can recover enough to do it all again the next night.

My costume was simple, but effective. Too bad the guitarist couldn't get into the spirit of halloween...

so these are the only pics I have found so far.


basically the best shot I could find of me.



some hot chick grabbing our guitar players ass. We brought her onstage and she was loving it. Then she came backstage, and fell over drunk....white beautiful undies is all i have to say.



The view from the stage behind the horn players.

I had the Hannibal Lecter mask on for about 30 seconds but it was driving me nuts...so I ended up just looking like an inmate.

I gotta admit it, we didn't use the masks all night long......they're hot, it's hard to see, it smells bad..........yuk.

Who says I'm a whiner?

Hahaha...me too, by midnight I had just the wig on...and put it in a ponytail...my mask (pirate skeleton) had one eye blacked out with a patch, so I was walkin' around with no depth perception.

Oh ya...let's not forget the stink...ewwwww!
