Only 9 Days til Halloween! Fuck man, grab the bags of blood and dead dog's eyes The Day of the Dead and Drunk Assholes in Costumes is upon us! There's something about Halloween that opens peoples messy brains to the notions of illicit behavior whilst wearing disguises that I both embrace and am cautious of. I was recalling a time when I travelled to Athens, Ohio for their annual car burning, riotous Halloween Weekend Extravaganza. It was so great and the hospital staff was so nice for not pressing charges that I went back the following year. Here's a highlight reel of what 3,000 people costumed drunkards are capable of in the the most important state for a Presidential Election. Welcome to Ohio.
Photographers live for this shit. Everyone gets into character and loses sight of their sanity for like 48 hours. Like all the guys that were swinging their swords last year that were dressed up as Spartans from "300". I saw a guy get dented in the head when one Spartan reared his sword and when the bleeding finally stopped, he looked that guy and said:"Don't worry. I'm Batman. I can handle it." A little Alcohol + Costumes = Amazing Photo Opportunities.
To be honest, Halloween already began for us with appearances from some gnarly ghouls last week in Chicago: Heidi "Fleiss" Montag and Spencer Pratt dropped in to support Bright Pink Cancer Awareness for an undisclosed sum and Brody Jenner was spotted inspecting many a boob, failing to ever find a mirror. Reality Stars are terrifying. Reality Stars with A-List appearance prices? Even more terrifying. Nonetheless, they were all very well behaved. As is protocol for these talentless husks.
But we had plenty of the Real Thing to combat the Pepsi products of MTV. Wunderkind band Cobra Starship kidnapped Reeves for, like all of Wednesday and even stole his camera at one point. That, and they got some wild girl on girl, mutli-participant debauchery going on in the middle of RiNo.
Then Joel Madden came in and pointed at some red tongued fat guy with the exact finger he touches Nicole Richie with.
And then Kill Hannah decided to set fire to their bus in the Swiss Alps on tour this week. While I'm glad they protested the whole "double decker" idea, methink they should have removed their belongings first. We are ever grateful that they're all fine, and even more appreciative of Mat Devine's brilliant narration in this video.
Anyway, I'd just wanted to remind people of what I, narcissist extraordinaire, wore last year because this year its gonna be the most annoying costume ever. That, and the army of Sarah Palin/ Tina Feys. Just think of the bloodbath that will ensue when armies of dead Heath Ledgers take on the one chick in Alaska that didn't like "Brokeback Mountain."
This Year, Reeves and I are following our childish hearts further down into the world of 8-Bit Bliss and no, were not gonna be Sark and Tron. But our costumes will rock you like a Decepticon.Stay tuned...
