Ned Raggett Ponders It All

This was a last minute thing from last week but I was able to get a hold of Voltaire to whip up this quick feature based around the Bats Day anniversary tomorrow in Anaheim, so thanks to him for being available on short notice! As sharp an interviewee as I thought he would be. A sample:

Reached shortly before a series of U.K. Halloween shows, the New York-based musician explains he’s now a Bats Day veteran.

“This is my second time performing at Bats Day. I had heard about it for years and was always curious,” Voltaire writes via e-mail. “When they booked me two years ago, I got to see what it was all about. You don’t really believe that a couple of thousand Goths will descend upon Disneyland until you see it with your own eyes. I especially love seeing hordes of Goths lining up for the Haunted Mansion ride and going on it again and again!”

Fun stuff — will be busy tomorrow night so I won’t be able to make the show but I’m sure it’ll be a blast. Go if you can.
