On July 25th, 1966, the members of Southern Californian party rock group Phi Rho Alpha Tau (PHRAT) inadvertently drove their ’59 Thunderbird through a wormhole on their way to an “End of summer beach party!” The wormhole subsequently spit them out in Big Sur, California 53 years later. Never a band to miss a gig, the boys – Prescott, Quinton, Brent, Chaz and Sandman – are taking their frat rock insanity (“Woolly Bully,” “96 Tears,” “Hang On Sloopy”) to Mercury Lounge for a night of drunken, turtleneck-clad mayhem. Join them before they zip back to the Johnson Administration.
“Mercury Lounge is a long time staple of Goleta nightlife and gathering place for students and patrons of all ages. The laid back atmosphere and retro vibe encourages conversation and socializing in a way other tasting rooms and bars shy away from.
The craft beer and local wine selection are top notch without being pretentious and the bartenders are knowledgeable and helpful about each selection. The back patio is a small oasis for chilling out year round in comfort.”
