Spokane Halloween bashes to check-out this weekend

Though bar-hopping on Halloween night maximizes the number of people who see your super cool, niche, unique, never-been-done-before costume, the Chameleon is hosting a party so big that you may as well make the music venue your one-stop-shop this Halloween. If you’re a fiend for the local scene, see ’80s-infused band Starcourt, indie rockers The Bed Heads (pictured), the punkish Tomboy, Blunt Skulls and Psychic Death, the aptly named Spøøky, and the always-enigmatic Vika, across three stages. If that’s not enough, witness killer drag performances, DJs, participate in the $500 costume contest, drink a themed cocktail, and even get a flash tattoo on-site to round out this spooky soiree.
