LAS VEGAS HALLOWEEN Las Vegas
Las Vegas has never managed to do anything small, and its Halloween festivities are no different. Along the Strip, the mega-hotel complexes vie for top thrills as hundreds of thousands descend on the city for Halloween weekend. Despite the world-class list of nightclubs, restaurants, and bars, the best way to enjoy a Vegas Halloween is free, as a stroll down the Strip brings you face-to-face with a sampling of the world’s most inventive and elaborate costumes. For an immersive Las Vegas fright experience, head to Circus Circus, where the Adventuredome theme park transforms into Fright Dome, with six haunted houses, including Insanitarium, a shuttered insane asylum where the surgeon of slaughter will pursue you to terrifying ends.
Listen to Lady Gaga’s New Single ‘Perfect Illusion’
Lady Gaga has released the first single from her forthcoming fifth studio album. The track, intended to be about “modern ecstasy” (one of the lyrics) according to Mother Monster herself.
The track was co-produced by Gaga, Kevin Parker of Tame Impala, BloodPop, and Mark Ronson.
Mark Savage at the BBC describes the track as “a propulsive disco-rock track, built around a perpetually building chord sequence that lends the song a compelling sense of urgency.”
Said Gaga to Savage:
“I believe many of us are wondering why there are so many fake things around us. How do we navigate through social media? How do we look through these images that we know are filtered and altered, and decipher what is reality and what is a perfect illusion? There are also a lot of things on the internet that are not reality. And I think people are pressured to keep that personal illusion going on in their real lives. So this song is about raging against it and letting it go. It’s about wanting people to re-establish that human connection.”

RIP. The Lady Chablis, the transgender performer perhaps best known for her appearance in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, has passed away at 59: “The cause was pneumonia, said Cale Hall, a longtime friend and a co-owner of Club One, where Ms. Chablis performed for three decades. Ms. Chablis was a standout character in the book, in which the author, John Berendt, introduced the world to Savannah and the sometimes eccentric people who live there.”
FRIEND OF THE GAYS. New Trump Deputy Campaign Manager says Bill Clinton is to blame for 9/11 because the gays: “Woodruff explains that Bossie claims the good operatives all quit the CIA – apparently all the good ones were homophobic – and Clinton CIA Director George Tenet ‘recruited CIA agents ‘from the homosexual community’—proof that he ‘wasted valuable time making politically correct innovations’ instead of doing his job and preventing 9/11.’”
GARY JOHNSON. Even The New York Times had a hard time knowing what Aleppo is. As did a former ambassador to Iraq.

2016 PROBLEMS. Like the rest of the world’s thinking population, Brad Pitt is baffled by Brexit, Donald Trump.
