HBC Music Festival Set for Halloween

A biannual music festival organized by a prominent expat musician and producer will feature more than 40 artists when it kicks off on the afternoon of Halloween, Oct. 31.

The Hae Bang Chon Festival, which takes place in six different venues across the Yongsan area, is the brainchild of Lance Reegan Diehl, a prolific musician, songwriter and studio owner originally from Canada.

Dubbed ``Howlin Weenie Fest,'' the latest installment will feature a host of talent from across the expat and Korean communities.

Acts performing include John Valentine, the Dharma Club, Allison Millar, Kimchi Cowboys, Solitaire Love Affair and Puppy Cats, according to the festival Web site.

The venues in Hae bang Chon are the VFW, Phillies, Phillies Downstairs, Cafe Alexandria, Orange Tree and Jacoby's.

Sideline events are also taking place at Olde Stompers and Rocky Mountain Tavern in Itaewon.

Organizers say the festival features a total of nine stages and that the event kicks off at 2 p.m. at Phillies.
