The Bogues & A Hard Day’s Night

Come and join us for a wild and rollicking night of music and film with The BOGUES and A Hard Day’s night. No cover and great fun. Hosted by Ginger Murray.

A Hard Day’s Night, one of the most influential musical films, remains the zenith of rocksploitation and is considered a forefather of the music video. Part comedy, part cinéma vérité, it also launched the career of director Richard Lester and obviously, the Beatles. Film courtesy of Shannon Ellery Hubbell of Lewtonbus.net.

Live Music – The BOGUES.
The Bogues are a San Francisco based 8-10 piece Pogues celebration band founded by Bay Area songwriter and British Isles transplant Paul Griffiths.”With our bouzouki, tin whistle, banjo, accordion, mandolin, guitar, fiddle, drums, and, when circumstances demand, trombone, we celebrate the genius of Shane MacGowan and The Pogues, inspired by their fiery mix of traditional Irish folk and blood and guts rock ‘n’ roll. Tom Waits described them as ‘brandy of the damned.” For their inaugural show on Saint Patrick’s night in 2012, San Francisco’s Make Out Room invited The BOGUES to perform the definitive Pogues album ‘Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash’ in its entirety. The band has since been invited to play all over the Bay Area. The Bogues include many of the Bay Area’s finest musicians, and guest luminaries (and Pogues fans) such as the late Ralph Carney (Tom Waits/Elvis Costello/Allen Ginsberg), Joshua Raoul Brody (Everyone(!!!) including Robin Williams and Tom Waits), Kevin T. White (Chuck Prophet), and storyteller Bryan McCaul of Coote Hill, Ireland.
