Johnny Lawrence Fishburne?

The Halloween awesomeness just got a little bit more specific. Here is the latest post on the Umphrey's blog from Joel:

The theme for this year’s Halloween show started with the germination of our “new cover every show” West coast tour that opened 2008 for us. We debuted a mash up of the Beatles’ “Come Together” with Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer,” and have since played it a handful of times live. This got us thinking, what other possibilities are out there for potential mash ups? Other covers? Possibly originals of our own? A mix of the two? We’ll leave some of it to the imagination, but suffice it to say that this year’s Halloween concert will feature Umphrey’s McGee forging into some new musical territory, and, of course, throwing the best Halloween party we know how to. As part of it, we are encouraging people to dress the part. What does this mean? It means that you too can come as some sort of “mash up.” Let me give you some examples of what might work. Want to come as a group? Here’s an idea for a boxing match theme for three: you’ve got the promoter of the event, Don King Kong; and then a curious bout which history could have never predicted, the formidable young sensation Cassius Clay Aiken vs. the champion powerhouse smart-ass, Muhammad Ali G. This year is all about your own creativity, whether you want to be Boy George Bush, Roseanne Arnold Schwarzenegger, or Uncle Jesse Jackson, the world is your oyster.

Happy mashing.

Now that sounds like fun. My mind is mostly buzzing from the song possibilities but I am interested to hear what costumes people can come up with. I've got a Super Hella Awesome prize for the best idea. Right now I am thinking of a group Karate Kid outfit with an obvious option being Johnny Lawrence Fishburne. I pray someone does do the Cassius Clay Aiken though, thats great. What ideas do you have?
