Scheduled the same weekend as the season premiere of "The Walking Dead" – is there such thing as too many zombies? -- the unkillable Zombie Pub Crawl announced its 2013 music lineup today with a few national touring acts on the list alongside a colorful list of locals. The Oct. 12 blood fest will once again take place in multiple locations, including a new site for the biggest of the outdoor stages, which just so happens to be out the window from where I am currently writing this at 4th Street and Portland Avenue (the Star Tribune's parking lots). Seems fitting, given that the property has been declared something of a dead zone by stadium-related developers. This site replaces Midway Stadium, used with the help of shuttle buses last year.

To headline the so-called Quarantine Zone, organizers are bringing in Sublime With Rome, the updated version of the '90s ska-rock band of "What I Got" fame, which now features replacement Replacements drummer Josh Freese (hey, maybe as long as Josh is coming to town... ). If that won't evoke enough raised-from-the-dead jokes, Flock of Seagulls will also play there. The Cabooze Plaza stage – dubbed the Get Cryphy stage in this case – looks to be a real hoot for hip-hop fans, with Atlanta-baked hitmakers the Ying Yang Twins and Bubba Sparxxx sharing the stage with hot local newbie ensemble Grrrl Prty.

Here's the rundown of what's happening where.
