WE DIGRESS FOR BREAKING NEWS: GO GIANTS! LAST NIGHT, THE SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS COMPLETED THEIR COMEBACK TO WIN GAME 7 OF THE NLCS. WORLD SERIES NEXT.
Hosting a Halloween bash -- a Monster Mash -- requires at least two chores beyond the usual “show preparation” of promoting, making up a set list, practicing, and showing up on time.
The first new chore is coming up with a costume or some alter ego. This, of course, requires some thought. As we all know, a myriad of possibilities exist. A full bore Herman Munster costume certainly would be fun but intuitively I know it would be hot as all get out and guaranteed to melt my brain. Can you see streams of make-up infused sweat running down my face? Now that would be a scary sight indeed.
Maybe we could consider something more risky or risque. The Pyronauts once took the stage at the Hotel Utah in their underwear and gorilla masks. Sorry, but I will not subject anybody -- particularly young people -- to the great white whale that is me in skivvies. Oh, gross!
Some compromise between certain discomfort and complete embarrassment must exist. I just do not know what it is yet. So the first extraordinary chore will have to wait a little longer even though the Monster Mash is less than a week away. Why do today what you can put off until tomorrow?
