Halloween is for  dancing, so local funk rock duo Adequate got  a good sized crowd primed for Halloween by doing both at the Owl Acoustic Lounge, Saturday, Oct. 30.

 Keenan Pezderic, Scott Mezei and Josh Thorlakson, dressed as space billionaires Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and  Richard Branson, opened up their second set with the theme from Shaft which segued into a plethora of funk fused favourites including  the theme from the TV show“ The Fresh Prince of Bel Aire.

Pezderic sang the falsetto vocals from behind his drum kit as usual .

 Thorlakson took lead vocals fro a great cover of Lou Reed’s “Take A Walk on the Wild Side, with Mezei really making the audience feel the sleazy bass line.

They stepped out of the ’70 for a second by covering Lizzo’s “ Juice”
