11/1/2012 Rocket Ship Ska Trip

 

 

(11/1/12)

Time for the annual RSST Skalloween Spooktacular, skassengers! Ooh, look… we have spiders, a fly, a ghost, Dracula, a Devil (who brought both a Daffodil and a Dub), a killer Jellyfish, Lon Chaney and even hard man fe dead Prince Buster… it’s utter Madness (even if it is Georgie Fame!) Now I ask you, what more could the wicked wish for? Well, how ‘bout what Sherwood brought to the Voovie Doo Lounge… including more spiders (thank you Ken Nordine), some Mooncussers, an evil 3min:18sec. Minute, the 4th Dimension, Voodoo, Godzilla and Bernard Hermann! Heck, The Fathoms even beamed in their own Haunted Shore! And don’t forget the Home Stretch, which introduces November’s GotchaSKAvered selection Monkey Man (The Specials this week), in addition to two Mummies, four Monsters, a Werewolf (from Paris; the one from London got lost on his way here), a Skull Collector, Baron von Skankin' Frank and Six Feet Deep's Boneyard, where there's sure to be both Skankin' and Bonediggin' going on. Somebody skweeeeeeem!
