Join California Gold on Thursday, October 23rd for a totally tubular night of retro Halloween fun.
In the words of the Last Barman Poet himself...
“I see America drinking the fabulous cocktails I make.
The sex on the beach, the schnapps made from peach...
The Singapore Sling, the Dingaling.
America, you’ve just been devoted to every flavor I got.
But if you wanna get loaded—why don’t you just order a shot!”

No cover charge. Just good vibes, drinks, and pure 80s magic.
Soul Ska and Fishbone frontman Angelo Moore are teaming up for this year's Halloween Costume Ball at Sweetwater!
Soul Ska is a Bay Area collective with a fresh take on the classic ska/rocksteady idiom. The 10-piece band is comprised of veteran members of Bay Area bands such as Vinyl, Stymie & the Pimp Jones Love Orchestra, The Right Time, Albino!, El Radio Fantastique, Jethro Jeremiah Band and more. Drawing equally from the original Jamaican first wave as well as the British second wave, the band’s rootsy, upbeat sound leans heavily on vocal harmony and a three-piece horn section.
