One Wild Night The first MIDLANDER Halloween costume contest, at the Boro Bar and Grill, was a really happening thing. The Nerds, roomates Todd Cole and Martin Aid- rich, received $25, which was donated by the Boro for best costume. We got our idea from the movie Revenge of the Nerds and bought our costumes from the thrift store, Aldrich said. Aldrich and Cole were dressed in high water slacks, white socks, and horn rimmed glasses held together by Scotch Tape. The second place group received $15 for dressing as old men with oversized gentials. The contestants were judged on originality, audi- ence reaction and creativity, Michael Turner MID- LANDER editor-in-chief said. The Boro donated all prize money and other treats to participants. Lee Roberts, owner of the Boro, said he was very pleased with the turnout. We had roughly 300 people attend the party, Rob- erts said. I don ' t want to know how many people were in here because it would freak out the fire marshal. At the time however, no one was thinking of the fire marshal, or anyone else for that ' matter. It was just a bunch of people sharing a really good time, by Rosemary Collins 11 u above: A couple of hip chicks from Woodstock. top: Dracula looking for a bite at the Boro. left: Pebbles and Bam Bam made it from Bedrock to the semi-finals.

Brown performed most of his hits from his album I TELL LIKE IT USED TO BE including the title song, Hell and High Water, I Wish That I Could Hurt That Way Again, and Rock It Billy. Dolly opened her set with Baby I ' m Burning. Both she and Rogers pleased the traditional side of the crowd by serving up plenty of their older hits. Dolly contributed her share by fol- lowing up her opener with Jolene, Two Doors Down, and the biblical Coat of Many Colors. Dolly then demonstrated her musical virtuosity by singing a story about Apple Jack and playing the banjo. Dolly showed off her band ' s vocal abilities with the accap- pella Do I Ever Cross Your Mind. She teased bass singer Steve Goldstein — He ' s not a great singer but neither am I, and I made a lot of money trying, she said. Dolly closed her set with her hit Nine to Five and left the crowd eagerly awaiting Rogers. Rogers, who appeared amidst a cloud of smoke, started his j ' and Dolly left their audience cheering for m(
