Okay to be fair I don’t know about the “Halloween pre-funk” part but wouldn’t it be great to get people to come out in costume to the Platypus Pub tonight (Thursday, October 30) to meet me and get a signed copy of the book? Well that is what you should be doing tonight, as I’ll be at the Platypus starting at 6pm, meeting people, signing books, and drinking some great beer! Will I be wearing a costume? Who knows…

I know as of yesterday there were still a number of pumpkin beers on tap as well—one of my favorite styles and perfect for Halloween!

And the Platypus is a great venue, located in the basement of an old church (which went through several restaurant revisions before being purchased by the current owners, including a French restaurant and an Italian restaurant). The Brew Shop is on the main level, which not only sells homebrewing supplies but also sports an extensive bottle shop. The basement Pub has a speakeasy vibe that I’ve always liked, and with 15 taps of great beer available it is one of the best beer beers in town.

So come on down, wear a costume, and have a great time!
