Halloween slam lowdown…
Friday night’s Halloween slam was great fun (although a little on the quiet side – to be expected with Stonefest, Reclaim the Night and a bunch of other events on at the same time)… Nevertheless ’twas lovely to see all of the kids (and big kids) dressed up, getting into the spookiness of the day.
We boosted the scary factor inside The Front by (silently) projecting Nosferatu and Plan 9 from Outer Space behind the performers. I thought it might be too distracting for the audience but everyone seemed to enjoy it. My haunted house poem went down well, as did the other Halloween-themed entries. The winners were:
- Liz Beaton
- Seung Baek
- Hadley
Andrew Walker did us a treat by playing well into the night – astounding variety of music for one man and his guitar.
