The god damn NYC Zombie Crawl is back. My friend Doug Sakmann keeps throwing these things and for some insane reason I keep showing up. This is the 9th year he has been running the zombie crawls and he does two a year and I think I have photographed something like 15 of the 18. I really hate getting fake blood on me because it is sticky and smells like pancakes but it always makes for good pictures especially around Halloween.

This year it was probably the coldest I remember a zombie crawl being (take that global warming! (wait, is that how that works?)) and everyone met up at the Twins Pub in midtown. I was just a few blocks away watching football with my Dolfans NYC crew so it was easy enough to roll over there.

The zombies made their way from Twins to the Museum of Sex which apparently has a bar in the basement. I mostly spent my time there looking at sexy photo books in the gift shop because I care about photo books more than I do about zombies or booze.

From  there the zombies crawled over to Slake for the after party and two of my friends bands (Jungle Junkies & Bikini Carwash) played but I decided I couldn’t stay there any longer since I was on about two hours of sleep and felt like I was losing my mind a little bit. I did get to see the trailer for Scouts Guide To The Zombie Apocalypse which seems like it could be a pretty good edition the growing line of zombie comedies like Shaun Of The Dead and Zombieland.

In conclusion (how every essay I wrote in middle school ended), there are some photos of zombies that you should look at it if you like that sort of thing. Thank you for your time. The end.
