Bands Dress Up As Better Bands For Halloween At Cole S

Halloween is Gossip Wolf’s favorite holiday—when else can you see Chicago bands pretend to be even better bands? Almost never! All hypotheticals aside, this wolf hears that a slew of local rockers will don costumes at Cole’s this weekend. The Chicago Singles Club presents a show on Friday, October 28, with ersatz versions of AC/DC (members of Meat Wave, Bleach Party, and Rad Payoff), Weezer (members of Strawberry Jacuzzi, Sheep Numbers, and Soddy Daisy), the Kinks (New Drugs), and Daft Punk (Sophagus and friends). On Saturday, October 29, Chicago’s best (and possibly only) all-female Misfits cover band, Hymen Moments, play alongside “Beck” (aka psych-pop locals Soft Candy), Jimmy Eat Girls (a Jimmy Eat World tribute by folks from Radio Shaq), and “Devo” (members of Soddy Daisy, Big Joy, and MTVghosts).
