What is the guy in the back with the stripes supposed to be?

― misty martinez (mistymartinez), Friday, 30 September 2005 07:41 (twenty years ago)

I am completely jealous of my brother's costume for this year. my brother now has a stitch-for-stitch replica of this doctor who scarf (made by my momz). just add a cheap raincoat & cutoff gloves.

sat. before halloween we at capones will be hosting free party:

Capones Cosmic Disco, in space nobody can hear you dance.

all space music all night long.

we'll probably be too lazy to decorate but maybe we'll bring some tin foil.

dress as an astronaut or alien, or where your normal costume and say you're an alien. "I'm a bear...an ALIEN bear!"

Tang cocktail specials.

― chaki (chaki), Friday, 20 October 2006 17:30 (nineteen years ago)

budget restraints on Oscar Wilde costume proved an ineffective countermeasure to wanting a REALLY AWESOME COSTUME OMG:

* brown tuxedo jacket w/ black velvet collar & silk brocade lapel accents (lined w/ yellow silk, thx ebay!)
* tuxedo shirt
* violet silk ascot
* cummerbund
* black slacks
* silver-handled walking stick
* awesome cufflinks
* massive black greatcoat w/ fur lapel & cuffs (in progress, i have the fur & the coat, just need to cut & apply the fur.)

I have never been this excited for Halloween. Ever. Good thing is I will definitely wear a lot of the pieces for everyday wear (I am a bit of a fop anyway).

― elmo argonaut (allocryptic), Friday, 27 October 2006 13:30 (nineteen years ago)

it doesn't matter whether people know what you are or not! e.g., my brother is always something made out of things he's collected randomly (wire, broken toys, broken tech, etc etc) and he plays the part and everyone loves it (except maybe for the people who have no imagination but boring people do not count.)

i decided that i'm not in a monstery mood now (plus, involves building, sewing) so i'm going to be an evil forest sprite covered in leaves and vines and glitter and evil intent plus very messy hair full of bits of nature. that is the kind of mood i'm in yaay!

Well but it's a Tuesday, and I like my Tuesdays quiet usually, esp since we're going out on Wed already and then my parents will be here. But you're right, I'm resisting the demands of HAVING! FUN! FOR! HALLOWEEN! cos it's just stressful and not in line with my headspace this year.

― Laurel (Laurel), Friday, 27 October 2006 14:36 (nineteen years ago)

rrr I'm kind of glad because I was worried about being out-monstered. still kind of monstery, but in a creepy-prosthetics way. Too bad, as I bought a bunch of nasty gauzy fabric that would have been ideal for one of the rock monsters in Conquest (aka the fount of all costume ideas).

wuffymang, i am excited to see your prothetics-based monster.
next year i am being monster for sure + sound effect and lights.

if i dress up tonight, so as not to ruin saturday surprise of costume, and b/c it's not full-blown halloween, i am going to dress all in brown and be chocolate. har. this is b/c charl*tt* said she'd dress in bright colours and be candy! (hers will be more exciting, obv)

laurel, you could be candy! do not feel the pressure of halloween. it's just a bit of fun :) and it's an excuse to adorn yourself in different ways and wear lots of make-up.

The upside to the Borat costume was conversations like this:

Drunk asshole: "Hey Borat, say something funny"
Me: "Your girlfriend, she is a fucking whore. Niiice! High Five!"
Drunk asshole: "AWESOME!"

i saw a dude sat with the most half-assed borat costume. a) short b) fake mustache half falling off c) he was wearing a blazer with jeans instead of a suit

dude, put a little effort into it!

there was a dude at the borat screening i went to dressed as a half assed borat (he was super short) and he kept screaming "shes my sister!" pointing at his poor date that had her forehead in her hand like "whyyyyy?"

THE MAKING OF … THE DAFT PUNK HELMETS
These helmets were commissioned by the punk band Daft Punk for a music video. Over
the years, LED Effects has received many inquiries from people who wanted to purchase
their own helmet. Unfortunately, these helmets are custom designed stage props and
cost over $14,000. While the helmets are reasonably simple in design, the cost of labor
and materials make it impractical to mass produce and market them. In addition, Daft
Punk owns the copyright and concept rights to the helmets, so there may be additional
licensing fees to pay. In short, yes, we can build you a helmet, but it will cost you
thousands of dollars and take a year to produce.
Here is how the helmets were made:
1. A model shop cast the face of the musician. This was used to create a bust which was
used as a template for the design.
2. The next step was to modify a motorcycle helmet. The body was cut away to allow for
cables and electronics. Two pin holes were provided so the wearer could see out.
3. Clay models were created for all the unique parts. This included a back pack and an arm
band controller.
4. Electronic displays were designed using prototype PC board materials.
5. The LED display panels were assembled by placing each LED one-by-one into a plastic
sheet and glued into place. Each LED required three feet of wiring to connect it to power
and control circuitry. The finished panel was bolted to the helmet frame.
6. The LED cabling was routed around the “ears” of the helmet and out the back. The
helmet cables led down to the backpack where the main controller board was located.
7. The system was originally powered by batteries, but this was later switched over to a
power cord system.
8. The control keypad on the armband was a custom manufactured PC board.
9. Exterior plastic molding and finishing materials were custom manufactured by a special
effects studio to complete the helmet. Once these pieces were added, the helmet details
were touched up with paint.
The helmets were used to produce a music video. As far as we are aware, the units are
still in use for performances.

due to unfortunate and unforseen events, we've had to move the Haunted Disco party to a new spot, luckily we got one of my favorites. The awesome back room at Union Pool. So without further ado...

Come to the Haunted Disco! The ghost of Dan Selzer, Jeremy Campbell's re-animated corpse and Matt Radune's posessed body DJ at the haunted disco, aka the back room of Union Pool. Scary costumes recommended...Velvet Vampire? Xanadu Zombie? Leisure Suit Lycanthrope? Studio 54 Slasher? George Hamilton in Love at First Bite? Pretty Scary!

This is our third annual halloween party/birthday party for my favorite person ever Nicole. You may remember Wild Kingdom at M Shanghai last year, or Disco in Space at Capones 2 years ago. You may not because you were too drunk. Whatever, this will be a lot of fun. A nice space and good music and great DJs and stupid costumes. what more do you want? Please spread the word and tell friends so people know not to go to the previous location and that this is where the fun will be.

Saturday October 27th 10pm
Union Pool Back Room
484 Union Ave and Meeker, Williamsburg Brooklyn
Take the L train to Lorimer or the G to Metropolitan.
