Halloween aside, the week wasn’t living up to last week for us, either – no maple syrup, no FADER party, and all our Pumpkin Ale from Monday is long tapped. But weekend warriors we are! Especially when the hometown is cookin’ – Dios at Mercury and Favela Clash at Luke and Leroys tonight, followed by the hangover extravaganza all weekend at WFMU’s crate fair. Outside of the boroughs, Kanye “Napoleon IV” West continues his imperial march through Baltimore and VA. Volcano plays LoBot in Oakland on Saturday, and the Hub in Santa Barbara gets Jamrocked on Sunday. And if you drive on the wrong side of the street, keep an eye out for a slew of Lady Sov gigs throughout the Isles.
