What's Going On: 10/30, 10/31, 11/1 & 11/2, 2014

I've been looking for something like this. I guess I could have assembled one.

The Weekend Is Scary Packed

With Halloween on a Friday this year, things are pretty busy. For us it's school Halloween "parade" on Friday afternoon. We go trick or treating with CoolDaughter #2 in the evening. CoolDaughter #1 is full-on tween now, so she'll be leaving us to hang with her friends. Then it's a swim meet on Saturday and Sunday with CD #1's warmup scheduled for 7:20 AM. But first, we've got to deal with Mischief / Goosey / Hell / Cabbage (yes, Cabbage) Night.

After TP'ing your neighbors' houses on Thursday, you've got several options. Pianos Become The Teeth are at Asbury Lanes with Frameworks, Vasudeva, and -- for the second straight Thursday -- gates. Blisstique make their way up to Dingbatz in Clifton. Pat DiNizio continues to dole out his rock star confessions at Langosta. It's singer / songwriter night at The Saint with Jerzy Jung, Jamie Coppa, Cat London, Cara Salimando, Deal Casino, and more. Dean Ween Group hit The Stone Pony, and Smalltalk play a true hometown show at The Sudsy Mug Saloon with Michael Jackson and The Beatles.

Halloween Night is full of tough choices. Teenage Halloween do a full-band show (their first as a headliner) in Sea Bright to help Shore Regional High School Student, Alex Munoz, as he battles cancer. APYC presents a night of surf music with Plato Zorba, Dentist, Black Flamingos, and The Outlips. Dead On Live are at The Paramount. The Saint is doing a Speakeasy themed evening with Moon Motel, Paper Streets, and more. Yellowcard are at Starland. Lights come to The Pony.

The Wonder Bar is hosting "Local Legends Live" featuring the music of Black Sabbath (Amy Malkoff and The Moonshines), The Misfits (The Battery Electric), Minor Threat (Hot Blood), The Beatles (The Creeptones), Radiohead (Only Living Boy), Prince (Des and The Swagmatics), The Rolling Stones (Pistol Charmer), The Doors (Empire Escorts). Bands will dress their parts and perform 30 minute sets.

Saturday brings Captured By Robots to The Lanes. The Von Mons play for free at APYC. Mastodon, Gojira, and Kvelertak are at Starland. The Damned are at The Pony.

Sunday is kind of quiet, but you'll probably need the rest. WBJB presents Hey Anna, Harper's Fellow, Inland Traveler, Caroline Reese and The Drifting Fifth up at The Bowery Electric in NYC. The scarily-named Genitotorturers are at The Brighton.

Have fun. Be safe. And if anyone knows where I can get a Rick / Carl Grimes King County Deputy Sheriff's hat by tomorrow, please let me know. Thanks.

Happy Halloween.
