Will Watts
From Everyday Music
1931 NE Sandy
Will spends his days surrounded by CDs. New CDs, local CDs, crappy CDs, used CDs–you get the picture. So who better to share with us his current fave music picks?
– Wheedle’s Groove: “It’s a compilation from a record label in Seattle [Light in The Attic]. A DJ found all this funk and soul from the late ’60s to the mid-’70s, and it’s all from Seattle.”
– Special Herbs & Spices by MF Doom: “It’s all the instrumental tracks that he’s contributed to other records over the past year or so.”
– The Tipping Point by the Roots: “It’s definitely them hitting their stride. They’ve added some new members and with the new production it seems like they finally have it all together.”
– You Hold The World Like A Gun by Thieves: “It’s this guy Greg Reynaud, who can play everything–sampler, drums, guitar. It’s kind of like instrumental Bj-rk or Prefuse 73.”

From Madame Bouffant’s Custom Wigs and Repairs

Wigs are the perfect last-minute Halloween costume–endless possibilities with minimal effort. Stephanie of Madame Bouffant’s knows how to get the hair that will take you there:
– Why wigs? “A wig isn’t a big commitment, but it can make a huge difference. Wigs can take you from librarian to porn star, and vice versa.”
– Experiment: “You don’t necessarily have to go with your natural hair color–with enough fake eyeliner and lipstick you can get away with anything.”
– Styling: “It’s all about the hairspray–load on the hair cement. If you’re going dancing, be prepared to put in at least 40 bobby pins. Blow-dryers, curling irons, anything with heat–that’s a big no-no.”
– Caps: “Don’t be afraid to wear a wig cap–we all look like drag queens sometimes. They prevent fly-aways and make the wig less itchy.”
