For its massive fifth year of Hallowe'en covers, DEATH TO T.O. upsized from its home at The Silver Dollar/Comfort Zone to Lee's Palace and the Dance Cave. That allowed it to keep its sprawling two-stage upstairs/downstairs dynamic even as it accommodated a bigger crowd than ever. Besides curating no fewer than seventeen (!) short sets, Dan Burke and Elliot Jones also kept things running on schedule, with one set starting quite crisply as the one on the other stage ended for nearly the whole night. And as always, the bands put in a lot of work — not just musically, but a lot of the time in trying to capture the look and mannerisms of the band they were covering.

Back in their formative days, the Good Enough karaoke crew helped Sloan's Chris Murphy explore his hardcore mojo by backing him for a full set of Minor Threat covers. That loud fast rules dynamic returned for this set that saw the band tackle no fewer than eleven songs from Milo Goes to College in their twenty-minute set.
