Scary vs. Slutty: The debate rages on
Sure, there are just about a zillion Halloween options in L.A. this year. But how many of them are costume balls and feature one of the city’s coolest new emerging bands, the effortlessly awesome J*Davey (pictured below), right next to L.A.’s very own indie Justin Timberlake, Grey Kid, high atop the Standard Hotel downtown? Exactly one. It would be remiss not to mention that your friends here at Metromix are pleased as spiked punch to be one of the hosts of this sure-to-be-memorable night of Halloween hysteria. Costumes are required, and best of all it's absolutely free! Just RSVP at Metromix@danceright.net and you're good to go.
But the big question that looms over every Halloween social event is the eternal debate: Scary vs. Slutty? Somewhere over the past ten years or so, it’s become a tradition for ladies to use Halloween as an excuse to unleash their inner (or in some cases, outer) exhibitionist, turning even the most rote get-up into a red-hot explosion of eye candy. If I had a dollar for every “sexy mouse,” “slutty witch” and “hooker/zombie” spied at Halloween parties over the years, I’d be the king of the Blue Zebra.
Regardless, we’re looking forward to seeing what kinds of fresh and original Halloween get-ups y’all can pull together this year. Surprise us with something other than a “slutty (fill in the blank).” Although we won’t be mad if you want to just wear a bikini and a pair of vampire fangs. We won’t hold it against you. Promise.
