TOMORROW: KILLER ANGELS OPENING RECEPTION @ WINDUP SPACE
A preview of the show is available at jmgiordanophotography.com as well as representations of much of Giordano’s other work, which ranges from cupcakes and Pop-Tarts to transgendered prostitutes.
Wear these out in Baltimore streets and soon enough you’ll have the fabulous gays of Mount Vernon rolling their eyes and clucking their tongues over a look that is ‘Ugh. Sooo 2013.’
TOMORROW: PEALS @ BALTIMORE MUSEUM OF ART
Peals is Bruce Willen (of Double Dagger) and William Cashion’s (of Future Islands) new project, whose debut LP Walking Field is available this week from Thrill Jockey Records. A Closer Listen described Walking Field as ‘a warm and enveloping album… less immediate than their previous work but just as engaging.’
THE TOP 6 THINGS WE MISSED IN OUR 6 MONTHS AT SEA
We’ve been out of town a long time. So long that we’re still not quite up to speed. It’s going to take your old Chop at least one day for every month away from Charm City to get back on track. As we said just the other day, a sailor leaves, comes home and strives to pick up just exactly where he left off. Now, it’s true that not a lot has changed. Six months isn’t really that long after all. But when you take as big a part in community life as we do, you’re bound to miss a few things…
![LIST OF BALTIMORE’S ELECTION NIGHT PARTIES
We’re not sure Why it took us so long to catch on to the whole official election night party thing. It’s a pretty sweet deal. They’re mostly meant as a thank-you to staff and volunteers, but they’re generally open to the public so really any ‘supporter’ can stroll on in and enjoy the free hors d’ouvres and open bar. Plus they’re usually crawling with pretty Democratic women who are all dressed up and having a good time.

![ADULTS, WAR ON WOMEN @ CCAS TONIGHT
Proceeds from tonight’s show will be donated to Marylanders for Marriage Equality and used to help support their efforts to pass Question Six on Tuesday’s Ballot.

For most people there are four seasons in the year. For the chronically single among us, especially those of us over 30, there are only two seasons: Dating Season and Couples’ Season.
Today, the day after Halloween, is the official beginning of Couples’ Season. It’s the time of year when all of your involved friends turn their attention more to Netflix nights on the couch than having drinks with friends. For the next several months, couples are more than boyfriends and girlfriends; they’re dedicated dyads attending each others’ family Thanksgivings and office parties. People don’t break up in the dead of winter. They’re much more likely to have a baby or announce a corny holiday engagement.
FIVE FALL SOUPS FOR VEGETARIANS (AND EVERYONE ELSE)
With Hurricane Sandy blowing through and making everything wet and miserable, everyone around here is basically stuck inside for most of the week. Many Marylanders are cooking up a storm in their own kitchens, and using the storm as an excuse to hit the fridge harder than the gym. So today seems like the perfect time to share five of our favorite fall soups.
HERE’S 2000 WORDS I WROTE ABOUT LOWER DENS AND SPOTIFY
“… some very good ideas and salient points were put out and discussed by many well-informed, highly respected and immediately concerned parties. Sure, there was still some of the usual trolling and ad hominem attacks that are ever-present online, but by and large it was about as Socratic as the Internet gets.”
