In our interviews in the past few months, we asked rockers about their best Halloween costumes. Here are our favorite responses.
We were gonna be the Jonas Brothers, just as like a joke, but the problem is that none of us have curly hair, and they actually dress kinda like we do, so I don’t think anybody would get it. Spencer Smith, Panic at the Disco
Last year we were in Toronto — we dressed up as Devo, and we played four Devo songs for the encore, which was really fun. But I think that if we were to dress up as something again we’d have to dress up as a band. ... It may be not as effective if we were dressed like Tokio Hotel ... and we’re playing our songs. Although I think we’d pick a cooler band than that. Maybe try to be like, Buffalo Springfield. Ben Gibbard, Death Cab for Cutie
I was always Zorro. I started when I was five years old — I would make my own costume and I was Zorro up until I couldn’t dress as a character any more. There’s a lot of Zorro in Alice. I have this rapier sword, and I look good with it. It used to belong to Errol Flynn and it was one of the original swords from “Captain Blood.” I put it in my hand now and I am Zorro. – Alice Cooper
