Freakin' Halloweekend
Local artists paying tribute to their own favorite bands is a regular occurrence in Madison these days, but that wasn’t always all that common. Freakin' Halloweekend was one of the events that lit the spark on that trend, and it returns for its 18th season with tributes to Metallica, Duran Duran, Radiohead, ELO and The Police, with performers including Sean Michael Dargan, The Earthlings, members of The Shabelles, Gentle Brontosaurus, Ask for Jane and others. The always-fun costume contest parades across the stage at 11 p.m.
