Just don’t forget to set your clocks back an hour on Sunday and VOTE BY NEXT TUESDAY!! For more ideas, check out our top picks of the week.
FRIDAY
LIVE MUSIC
Halloween Warehouse Party
There’s not much better than a good old-fashioned warehouse party, and with Portland-born independent record label and retailer Tender Loving Empire curating the performers at this event, it’s sure to be a hometown banger. This mischievous shindig at the company’s Southeast Portland headquarters will feature music from local bands with vaguely eerie names like the Builders and the Butchers (scary!), BendreTheGiant (freaky!), Scarves (don’t scare us!), and Pillow Spiders (no thank you!). Dress to impress for the chance to win prizes in the costume contest, and enter raffles benefiting the Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition (PIRC). Best of all, a Friday shindig means you can still go out the next night on actual Halloween! BRI BREY
