Cue the stage lights and jack-o’-lanterns: on Halloween night 2007, Ann Arbor’s Michigan Theatre morphed into a sonic carnival where campus up-and-comers traded solos and costumes alike. The set you’re about to watch captures a young Theo Katzman shredding and singing with his first touring outfit, My Dear Disco—the electro-funk collective that would later evolve into Ella Riot.

Sharing the spotlight are hometown heavyweights The Macpodz (jazz-funk improvisers), global-groove favorites The Ragbirds, roots rockers Jamie Register & the Glendales, and the spooky-season super-group Earthwork Spookies. Expect costume-clad horn lines, synth swirls, and enough rhythmic tricks-and-treats to keep the dance floor buzzing. Scroll down for candid photos, set-list scribbles, and fan memories from the night Ann Arbor’s musical orbits aligned in glorious, ghoulish harmony.
