Halloween Countdown: October 6 – leave your body at the door

Even the undead need to cut loose after a hard week of haunting, so feel free to join the all the hep bats and ghouls in the most underground club of all -- I'm talking six feet under, children. And, dare I say it, folks are just dying to get in...

They've got a wide selection of spirits, too, including a positively killer Zombie that will rip the brain right out of your skull.

Forget whistling past the graveyard; to ensure this Guignol is truly grand indeed, we need acts that don't skimp on the brass:

Rip, Rig, & Panic - Alchemy in This Cemetary (from Attitude, 1983; also available on Knee Deep in Hits, 1990) - The missing link between The Pop Group and "Buffalo Stance."

Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party (from Dead Man's Party, 1985) - Wow, and I thought the Lansdowne Street clubs had steep cover charges.

Fishbone - Bonin' in the Boneyard (from Truth and Soul, 1988) - Just be sure to use protection, lest you or your partner end up in the skeletal family way.
