What better night than Halloween to resurrect the ghost of Funky in the Middle? Tonight the one-time Westside dance-music staple returns to haunt its former home, the A/C Club, with an all-star reunion lineup of founding crate diggers: Wiseacre, Mr. Caparro, and Deep honcho Marques Wyatt. Considering these three titans of rare grooves, deep soul, and white-hot breaks — plus the horde of Venice Beach burners and costume connoisseurs — you can safely file this trick under treats.
