Vampire weekend played a secret Halloween show in LA (pics) & one big free one on Sunday (video)
photos by Rachel Carr

We will be playing a secret show at a historic Los Angeles venue tonight. It holds a small amount of people and while we would love to have everyone join us, there just isn't room. So here's the plan... The first 30 people to sign up here will win a pair of tickets. If you are one of those lucky 30 people, you'll hear back from us with info on the show and location. For those of you who miss the cut off for the Halloween show, don't worry, we'll be playing a free Dia De Los Muertos show [on Sunday]. -Vampire WeekendThat was a message Vampire Weekend sent out on Halloween. The band played new songs from "Contra", and old songs, at that Halloween show and at the free one the next day at Hollenbeck Recreation Center Band Shell. Videos and more pictures from the Halloween show, below...

day of the dead is all saints' *and* all souls', so it's today and yesterday.
colt 45 *is* gross.
it *was* fun.
DIRTY PRESTON FOR LIFE.
I didn't ask about their costumes because they definitely did not hang out at the party, unlike all the fun people.

What anyone sees in this lameass band is beyond me. They are a good example of how clueless Pitchfork is. Indie kids are like sheep. They all seem to follow a lot of the same crappy bands.

We saw them on SNL. We were laughing our asses off at how dopey they looked and how crappy they played. Zero originality although that seems to be the norm these days.
