Dead Man's Ball ~ LACMA

On Saturday night, LACMA and KROQ hosted The Dead Man's Ball, capping the final evening of the museum's Tim Burton exhibit. The freaks really came out that night, with a lot of kids dressed up as their favorite Burton roles. She Wants Revenge played and The Bumby's were walking around there somewhere, but we missed both while trying to catch up with Kanon vodka cocktails and faces full of chocolate-covered Rice Krispie treats. Very cool night full of killer people and costumes, check out some of the action!

This dude had our favorite costume.

Great costume, but this boney Bismark kept ruining the effect by toying with his phone.
