Red Echo

October 30, 2010

My project this afternoon is a quick little record bag for my DJ costume. Record bag, that is, as in a shoulder-bag that holds actual vinyl records. I already have the big raver pants, and I got this puffy, fur-trimmed hoodie and a baseball hat this afternoon; add a pair of headphones and I’m all set.

But wait, the informed reader may ask: you say you are dressing up as a DJ for Halloween, but aren’t you actually a DJ in real life? And aren’t you, in fact, going to be performing as a DJ on Halloween itself? Wearing your… DJ…. costume?

Ah, yes: but it’s still a costume, because I am dressing up as a completely different kind of DJ. It will be obvious that my DJ outfit is a costume as soon as you hear the music, because I will look like someone who would be playing a completely different kind of music! Obviously.

Also, I will be a zombie.

  3. Yes…photos!

    I’m become weary of zombies, no offense. Any old costume does become more exciting zombified, though, it is true. One of my favorite costumes was the zombie showgirl one I did. I’m especially proud of it because I did it over 5 years ago ;p
