Music

Are you tired of having nothing better to play at your Halloween parties than “One Eyed Purple People Eater,” “Monster Mash,” “Mannheim Steamroller” and “Thriller?” (Probably yes, except for “Thriller.”) Do you share the same music library as me? (Probably not.) Do you at least share similar musical tastes as I do?

When I arrived at Rochester’s Main Street Armory, I was met with a horde of fans, from teenagers, clad in Ray Ban shades and an array of flannel plaid, to a slightly older bunch less worried about their appearances, all waiting desperately to be let inside.

To my own embarrassing determination, I seem to have a penchant for beating my way to the front of the crowd at concerts – and with OK Go coming to Ithaca, NY I knew I would have raised a fist or two to get where I wanted to be.
