My house back home has the nickname "Alpine Youth Hostel" because people are there all the time.  Our house is filled with electic goodies.  In particular, this mascot head.  We call him "Aiden."  He was purchased at a costume shop a stone's throw away from the hostel.  A smooth $20 later, he is everyone's alter ego as soon as he is placed on.  The man wearing Aiden was about to perform with his band "Glitterlust" at the hostel.  He was a little nervous and thought Aiden could help.
