Punk Rock Halloween: Review & Videos

Saskatoon punk rock covers show nets over $800 for charity

“So it’s halloween
And you feel like dancin’
And you feel like shinin’
And you feel like letting loose”
– “Halloween”, Dead Kennedys

On Friday, October 26, Vangelis hosted Punk Rock Halloween. Local skid musicians formed cover bands and everyone got rip-roaring trashed and danced their balls off.

And the best part? Around $800 was raised for the Saskatoon Crisis Nursery. Go Saskatoon!

But the other best part, aside from all the haphazard music, was how much fun everyone had. I haven’t seen people lose their shit like that in a long time. Like my boss said to me, over blasts of guitar squalls and mic hollars, “it’s just not a Saskatoon punk show without some guy waving around a canoe paddle in the pit.”

Amen.
