Halloween Dance
We did a test run of our costumes at our school's Halloween dance.
You will note that we did not opt for the full-blown traditional KISS costumes, but rather did the leather look the band was known to do on occasion. In these chilly climes, we of course needed costumes that incorporated some sort of jacket.
We won Best Family Costume. An immigrant Asian family had their pictures taken with us. We were the toasts of the ball with everyone coming up to tell us how much they liked the outfits.
The boys got shy on me on the ground, so we didn't sing our KISS Halloween medly.
The biggest sacrifice for me that I had to shave off my goatee for the sake of the costume, but, as I kept reminding the boys, you have to suffer for your art.
All in all, we were very pleased with the results.

Mentok, the kids look cute, but you, you (accidentally or not) have captured the essence of a middle-aged rock band tribute performer perfectly.
