Halloween night with Moral Panic

On Halloween night, Moral Panic played another quarantine rock session from the front windows (one for each of the three band members) of a residential building on Second Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue... this marks the third show from this location this year. 

While the band put up flyers nearby ... many of the few dozen spectators outside the building heard the music from the Avenues and stopped by... appearing excited by the impromptu live session.

EVG contributor Stacie Joy was on hand for the nearly 30-minute high-energy set...

A very East Village Halloween

EVG contributor Stacie Joy was out and about on Halloween ... capturing the variety of costumes, from the store bought to the more elaborate creations... 

As always, movie characters remain popular, as you'll see with the Joker, Freddy Krueger and Michael Myers.

We start at the Loisaida Open Streets Community Coalition photoBOOth on Avenue B at Seventh Street ... and end in Tompkins Square Park where the meetup of the Deep Playa Nighttime Bike ride, Kostume Kult and the Renegade Halloween Parade came together (all under the watchful eye of Parks Enforcement division).

... and as always, it was the night he came home...

Now that Halloween is over with...

The Christmas holiday lights are going up on Ninth Street between First Avenue and Second Avenue this morning, as these photos via Steven show...

A little early this year, as we've seen them arrive as late as Dec. 5 in the past...

Anyway, it's always festive on this block during the holidays... and if we've ever needed some holiday cheer, the time is now... 

Updated 7:50 p.m. 

Steven shared a few photos of how the lights look tonight...
