Halloween in the UK 1930s

“An early reference to wearing costumes at Halloween comes from Scotland in 1585, but they may pre-date this. […] By the 1930s costumes based on characters in mass media such as film, literature, and radio were popular.”

Saturday Matinee – The Creepshow, Messer Chups, Paulie Martin & Blues Confidential, and The Reverend Horton Heat

The Creepshow has been blasting psychopunkabilly for a while. Zombies Ate Her Brain was from their debut album, Sell Your Soul (2006).

From St. Petersburg, Russia,  Messer Chups is listed under vampire space zombie surf rock. “Messer” is German for “knife” and “Chups” is from Chupa Chups lollipops.

Decent cover of Freddie King‘s classic Boogie Man performed by Paulie Martin & Blues Confidential of Ireland. According to the band’s website, Martin has moved on to other ventures..

Gretchmaster The Reverend Horton Heat has a tailgater to deal with.

Just a few days to go before the little spooky ones come a-knockin’.  We had maybe a half dozen last year, and that includes the one who showed up twice. In any case, pumpkin vivisection is scheduled for Monday.

See you tomorrow, you know where to find me.
