My band played an original score to Murnau's Nosferatu at Vanderbilt University that night. The best effort I saw was definitely the film studies professor who introduced the film in a very well-made Count Orlok costume.

I have friends who did that.  Two Star Symphony they are called.  More recently they've done The Cabinet of Dr. Calagari.  I mostly know Kirk the drummer.

Very nice. Always good to meet fellow travelers. If they ever make it up St. Louis way, tell them to get in touch. Maybe we could do a thing.

Hey, another St Louisan.  I was just there last weekend.  What part of St Louis are you in?

I had a quiet night in on Halloween, watching a variety of horer movies, eating too much chocolate, and having fun meeting the neighbourhood kids.

In vaguely related news:  in the coolest way possible, this guy went as himself for Halloween.

Lived in Tower Grove South for the last ten years or so, recently relocated to Northampton for the (relative) peace.

You?

We live in Kentucky, but Mrs. West grew up in South County right off Tesson Ferry.  When we met we lived on Alfred right across from the Botanical Gardens.  Mrs. West's brother and his family live on Hartford, right near Grand.  Fun stuff.

My band practices on Wyoming. Your wife's family can probably hear us shouting as we drunkenly make our way back from Mangia at 3 o'clock on any given morning.

oh, I live in St Louis, too. I go to WashU. I live right on the border of UCity and St Louis proper. I am equidistant between the Skinker and Delmar Loop metro stops.

also: my friend says he has heard of you, and that his brother is friends with a member of your band. His brother is in the Hibernauts.

I'm sorry but it's not a costume-of-self without a plastic smock upon which there is a drawing of yourself saying "Trick or Treat".

We shall call this "The He-man Rule".

Well, goddamn. Yeah, we know them from way back. Well, our violinist is really the one who your friend's brother knows, but our old band definitely played with them once or twice a few years back. Damned interesting.
