Help the glitter ninja be a convincing zombierista~!
Z-day Columbia (Z-Day.net) is tomorrow night, and my best friend and I are both going- her, as a punk zombie with pink hair, and me as an apron-clad zombie starbucks barista. The general game plan is to wander from the park through Five Points as a zombie mob, being generally zombieish along the way. Please post your best tips (makeup, behaviour, dress) for being a convincing punk and zombierista!
(bonus points for specific costume-related behaviour!)

Dead Kennedys? No, no, no- you want an Exploited "Punk's Not Dead" t-shirt with the "Not" crossed out.

A good costume shop will sell you a "bruise kit," basically 5 ghastly makeup colors. They'll also have wound kits for building up bloody scars. Note that the costume shops might be a little picked-over right now.
Pancake your face and apply some bruise makeup. Give yourself some good oozing wounds. But that's just the superficial stuff. You need the shambling gait, the slack jaw, the vacant stare, and the tilted neck. If you can manage that (especially the vacant stare) even when you're tempted to crack up, you'll freak people out.

A Dead Kennedy's t-shirt for your friend. Also, maybe liberty spikes done with fake blood?
