New Belgium Halloween (New Wave Halloween and New Belgium Brewing Company)

Barry and Abigail discuss Just Can’t Get Enough: New Wave Halloween and sample Voodoo Ranger Juice Force, Voodoo Ranger Peach Force IPA, and Voodoo Ranger Tropic Force IPA from New Belgium Brewing Company in Fort Collins, Colorado. The Most Popular IPA in the Country Is Voodoo Ranger. So Is the Second. Abigail first saw a live performance of The Rocky Horror Picture Show in Gainesville, Florida, at the late great High Dive. Read more about this historic music venue! Barry compared Every Day is Halloween by Ministry to Midnight Oil (perhaps Arctic World or Sell My Soul?). We granted one credit at the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music to F.O.T.P. Joe Turocey for his comparison of Superfine by Cloud Eleven to Life on Mars? by David Bowie. Barry revealed to Abigail that Danny Elfman is the lead singer of Oingo Boingo. Barry and Abigail recognized Elfman’s vocals in Dead Man’s Party in Jack’s Obsession and Poor Jack from The Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack, respectively. We listened to the original Halloween Theme - Main Title by John Carpenter to compare it to the version by MX-80 Sound. We also listened to several different interpretations of The Munsters theme to compare them to the version by Comateens. We shared the original TV show theme, as well as interpretations by Los Straitjackets, Herman and the Humans, The Escalators, and The Coffin Daggers. Barry shared a clip of Dave Edmunds’ biggest hit, I Hear You Knocking, as well as the original by Fats Domino. Abigail entered The Creature From the Black Lagoon by Dave Edmunds into the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music with a comparison to Goin’ or Comin’ by Terry Anderson and the Olympic Ass Kickin Team. After listening to Halloween by Sonic Youth, we listened to a clip of their song Kool Thing, which appears on Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. After listening to Halloween by Dead Kennedys, we listened to a clip of their song Holiday in Cambodia, which also appears on Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock!
