POLL: Which is the cheaper costume – Sara Palin or that lady that carved the backwards B in her face?  I dunno, but thank god for those two, because now we all have some cheap ways to dress up in a hurry.  Oh crap, what about dudes.  Hipster once again.

FRIDAY
Rusted Shut (12″ Relase Party) and The Homopolice @ Sound Exchange
This gets kicked off about 7pm, and is free (as always) and could involve a free keg (as usually). Regardless, this is a spooktacular way to get your weekend started, cause both of these band are going to freak you out more than if Nader bought a Pinto.
