Day of The Dead ~ Special End of the World Edition

Earthquakes on the left, Hurricanes on the right…is tomorrow morning going to be one of those days when we wish we had spent the night hiding in Nicholas Cage’s panic room? The good news is the Mayans came out recently and asked that everyone shut up about the BS 2012 prophecy (I guess I better start paying those debts off after all), so there is a chance we won’t be out there scrounging for food and supplies and fighting off militias and groups of cannibals & bandits this week – so let’s party!

If there is anything that will help you exercise all those demons (left there, no doubt, by a bunch of over-heated meteorologists) it’s dancing and drinking!

Here are two great options to shake up your Halloween/Day of the Dead/Dia de los Muertos week!

VINTAGE WAVES | HALLOWEEN EDITION!

This Wednesday, October 31st we kick off our *Vintage Waves* weekly ass shaker! A night of terrifying vintage sounds, cheap booze and fresh Latin cuisine.

N O C H E d e l o s M U E R T O S
N I G H T o f t h e D E A D ! ! !

This Thursday, November 1st

Creatures Creating – 822 Dundas St. W

A celebration of life and death, a chANCE to dANCE with those who have passed away (who will no doubt join us in S P I R I T !)
It’s going to be a mix of live music, performance and installation all in one, starting off with the Native Smokes (http://nativesmokes.bandcamp.com/) and then Lido Pimienta (http://soundcloud.com/lido-pimienta). Expect bone-rattleing dance-offs in the black light (that’s right BLACK LIGHT) party in the basement. Everyone is asked to bring a token of their loved ones who have passed away to add to the altar (brought to you by the OCAD U Latin American Student Association!). Flowers, candles, a photo or any object that symbolizes or once belonged to them will do.

Stay safe tonight familia! We want to see all your pretty faces on the dancefloor this week!
