After returning from two weeks on the road, as I made my way to work on Monday October 16th, I was reminded that my vacation was over by a co-worker’s voice message during my commute. on Wednesday October 18th, there was a Fall Fundraiser dinner for Cornerstone Community Outreach to thank those who have donated to help keep the shelter in operation and help keep me in a job! There was a video for Stewart Brown during the program & he happened to be sitting next to us so I got his reaction as his video played.
On Saturday October 21st, we went to the Haunted Flea Market in Wheaton, Illinois. I was able to score some xBox games. There was a couple singing Man Of Constant Sorrow and we passed by Sven Goolie before we left.
Friday October 27th, I decided to get myself an iPhone 8. I couldn’t justify paying for the iPhone X but I waited to see the cost before making a decision. Unfortunately, I had to wait for a case and screen protector to arrive by mail so I thought using the plastic covering that came with the phone would suffice in the meantime. I came to realize that it interfered with the microphone when capturing video so later that night as I captured footage of the Nocturna costume contest at Metro, there are some audio difficulties. I did the best I could to solve this but it is hard to hear some of what is going on. This problem also plagued some show footage over the next few days until I was able to get the proper screen protector and case for the phone.
Saturday October 28th, our friend Cindy joined us for a road trip to see mewithoutYou at Hi-Fi in Indianapolis. Elphie came along but visited with friends while we went to the show. We stopped at a Primanti Brothers before the show for food. This is one of the clips of show footage where the audio is messed up due to the plastic being on the phone instead of a proper case and screen protector. We returned to Chicago late in the night so Cindy slept for a few hours at our house.

On Sunday October 29th, there was a Catacombs show at Wilson Abbey featuring Leper, Desiring Dead Flesh, Parental Petulance, and The Magnifiers. For more on that show, follow the link, there were some more audio difficulties due to using my iPhone 8 for part of the show. I had run out of space on the Canon Rebel T6. This was the first time seeing The Magnifiers and they were a pleasant surprise.

On Tuesday October 31st, Halloween, Elphie and I celebrated five years as a couple by going to Asia Buffet and Grill. It was some good food and I know we both ate our fill.
We held our annual Halloween House Party on Saturday November 4th due to taking the road trip and the rest of October being busy. It was a fun night hanging with friends while playing videos from White Collar Sideshow, Rocky Horror Picture Show, and, since it turned November 5th as the night went on, V for Vendetta. The following day, Sunday November 5th, Josh and Anastasia had a Guy Fawkes Day party at their house during which Helen ate nasty Jelly Belly’s from a game with played with Dave Canfield a couple months before.
On Friday November 10th Chicago got its first snow. On Sunday November 12th, Debbie came back to visit so we picked her up at the airport and spent the next several days eating our way through Chicago: November 13th Chicago Pizza at Falco’s, November 14th Kuma’s Corner, November 15th Honey Butter Fried Chicken. Elphie and Debbie also went to the Art Institute of Chicago on November 15th. We all went to the sold out Subterranean for Listener, Levi The Poet, and Comrades. It was a good show and we got to hang out with the artists a bit afterwards. I bought a fun shirt featuring Dan Smith.

On Sunday November 19th we attended Disgracegiving at Wasted Youth. It is a suspension event from Disgraceland Wasteland with a whole lot of food. It was a good time. Clips I captured included a guy pulling himself up and some sort of full body suspension that I had never seen before.
Additional soundtrack to this project is Halloween by Insomniac Folklore.
