Join Astral Weeks author and Hallelujah The Hills frontman Ryan Walsh for songs, stories, and Q&A via Zoom on Thursday, April 16th from 7:30 - 9:30 PM. We'll kick off the night with a 5 minute tutorial on how to make one of our most popular cocktails and then we will settle into an incredible night of storytelling. Please rsvp to [email protected] so we can send you the Zoom link and send you the cocktail recipe ingredients in advance!


The event is free but any donations to support the GoFundMe campaign for the staff at Tres Gatos is much appreciated! We are so grateful for Ryan's support in this effort:

Background on Astral Weeks:
"...Walsh's book follows a criss-crossing cast of musicians and visionaries, artists and hippie entrepreneurs, from a young Tufts English professor who walks into a job as a host for TV's wildest show (one episode required two sets, each tuned to a different channel) to the mystically inclined owner of radio station WBCN, who believed he was the reincarnation of a scientist from Atlantis. Most penetratingly powerful of all is Mel Lyman, the folk-music star who decided he was God, then controlled the lives of his many followers via acid, astrology, and an underground newspaper called Avatar.


A mesmerizing group of boldface names pops to life in Astral Weeks: James Brown quells tensions the night after Martin Luther King, Jr. is assassinated; the real-life crimes of the Boston Strangler come to the movie screen via Tony Curtis; Howard Zinn testifies for Avatar in the courtroom. From life-changing concerts and chilling crimes, to acid experiments and film shoots, Astral Weeks is the secret, wild history of a unique time and place."
