From tricks to treats to ofrendas, we’re ready to do it all this weekend.

It’s almost the spookiest weekend of the year, and we‘ve got some scary good plans for you and your ghoulfriends. Let’s kick things off with some frightful movies… We’re giving you and your boo one last chance to enter to win a pair of tickets to the San Diego Halloween Film Fest on Friday at Cinema Under The Stars! Expect costumes, indie films from local and national filmmakers, and plenty of treats - a movie lover's dream.

JUST ANNOUNCED

• Oingo Boingo is back… sort of. The original members (minus Elfman) are keeping the skeletons dancing with a Holiday Jam-a-Palooza at Music Box on 12/6. Expect “Dead Man’s Party,” and the kind of chaotic horns you forgot you loved.

• Catch Grammy-nominated Texas troubadour Hayes Carll live at Belly Up on 2/3. His We're Only Human Tour dives into grit, wit, and whiskey-soaked honesty.

• Bone Bone Bone Bone…” You already hear it. On 1/3, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony storm into The Observatory with one of the most recognizable flows in hip-hop. Be there.

• Celebrate 45 years of acoustic rebellion with Violent Femmes on 2/26. Their tour hits The Sound with all the snarling charm that’s kept “Add It Up” tattooed on punk playlists for decades. FYI: they’ve been playing full albums live on this tour.

• Plus, other just-announced shows from 5 SOS, Cold Cave, Rosa Anschutz, Buzz Kull, Miguel, Jean Dawson, and more!
