Festivities

Whew. What a fun weekend! I saw Man Man at the national on Thursday Here is a video of one of their songs:

Friday night was halloween. All the Saints put on their third annual Halloween parade. It was 'The Funeral March of Our Founding Fathers' with huge, multi-person puppets. A ton of people came out. People on bikes were blocking off the streets ahead of the parade, and Lily managed to dodge the cops and make the whole thing happen. I can't believe they would try to stop such an amazing parade. No BS played at the front and Special Ed and the Shortbus played at the back. After the parade I went to a costume party/show at Gallery 5. There was a Tom Petty cover band, and Prabir and the Substitutes played, as well. Good times. I'll probably be missing Richmond next Halloween. Oh and I need to find some pictures of my halloween costume. I was Max from Where the Wild Things Are. There was a costume contest, and Condoleeza Rice and Beans won! Gotta find a picture of that one too.
