In what has already been a strange Halloween, I’m glad Chico Fellini are there to support me with songs like this. Here’s Chico Fellini doing a cover of the Cramp’s “I Was a Teenage Werewolf” for Halloween. I’m sure they’ll be playing this and a lot more at their show at the Green Lantern tonight!

The witty and playful march from 8 1/2 created the perfect subtext for the nonsense of the fashion world....
Anyone that reads this site even on a semi-regular basis probably knows I absolutely love Federico Fellini's 8½ and that is one of the major reasons I am so looking forward to Rob Marshall's musical adaptation Nine.
