Austinist Show Preview: 1967 Hoot Happening at Ruta Maya
Although Hoot Nights and Tribute shows tend to occur frequently, Saturday’s extravaganza at Ruta Maya promises to trump all with an extensive lineup of local talent set to cover a variety of tunes recorded (or released) in 1967, known otherwise as the Summer Of Love.
Get there early, even if the music does only start at the respectable time of 4:20 p.m. Full lineup below but we have to mention some of our favorites -- Ringo Deathstarr will perform “Within You Without You” (The Beatles) along with two Velvet Underground & Nico tracks (“Heroin” and “All Tomorrow’s Parties.”)
Christian Bland from The Black Angels will be on hand to do some Pink Floyd and Rolling Stones ditties, while All In The Golden Afternoon cover The Pretty Things, among others. Jason Morales’ take on Cream is definitely highly anticipated and Tammany Hall Machines will dissect a series of Beatles songs. Stellar film footage from 1967 will also be presented between the sets and a portion of the proceeds from the show will be donated to the Roky Erickson Trust.
Lineup after the jump!
