Green Room's weekly Black Friday event is letting those six feet under rise again on June 22, for the Dead Celebrity party. Partygoers are asked to dress as their favorite deceased musician, artist, or pop-culture icon, or hell, even a zombie, and dance the night away to the Goth anthems spun by DJs LinderSMASH and Kaos.
"Deceased fictional characters are also welcome," Linder tells us: ie: Heath Ledger's "Joker" or
Kill Bill's Elle Driver,
a.k.a.
California Mountain Snake. "Does Agent Coulson from the
Avengers, or Obi-Wan hold any less place in our hearts?" Linder asks, "Double points for being a character of a deceased celeb that died on screen like Cleopatra, or the Crow."
The idea was born from a request by local Goth-night regulars. "I loved the idea and ran with it," Linder says, "Working with their ideas makes the night better, it's a great community and scene we've built together."
LinderSMASH and Kaos will share the decks with Big Boy and Killjoy who will also be in costume. Burlesque hotties Val Vampyre, Morgan La Rue, and Lisa Ann will be onsite to ensure the rules are followed, while breaking a few of their own as well. We thought it fitting to ask the four DJs and the lovely ladies of the night what they'll be dressing up as to inspire our own undead dead looks.
