It’s funny to look around at all the costumes we wear. I was looking at the Smithsonian magazine and at some photos of monks in Bhutan. My first thought was that they were wearing costumes. Then I quickly thought, what isn’t a costume? I wear my get up every day. Carl and the boys are usually in shorts, a shirt, a vest and barefoot. It’s our custom. It just occurred to me that the difference is just a few letters. But that said, it is kind of a drag if there is a Halloween party and people show up in their street clothes so maybe I haven’t thought this out well enough.

When we play downtown there are all kinds of people in all kinds of getups. We always say that everyday is Halloween downtown.
